You arn't on any active silence ban at the moment.

nope never been banned (other than testing bots/testing purposes)

Sorry to bump this but did you get anywhere with this project sam?

Jericho24. is the recognized owner of Desert Storm.

While I do not speak for Polix, and I am not speaking for SSForum / SSCentral on this topic right now, I do have some concerns. I think the main concern is developers losing interest, the project coming to a halt and the players that had their hopes set so high waiting on this 'game' just get disappointed *again*. We've all been in this community for a while now and we've all seen this time and time again. Somebody comes along, promises "subspace 2" or "3d subspace" and has a pretty nice project going. Then all of a sudden something happens...What happens? Real life is what happens. Things like this take a lot of time, and the more time that passes the more chances of 'real life' catching up to the developers. So I *think* Polix was getting at why have 2 different projects going at the same time and run the risk of both projects losing developers. But obviously you have stated your reasons, and they are very valid reasons I do hope this project continues as well as discretion. I just hope interest is not lost with the 2 projects. Now as for this project being 'supported' by SSCentral / SSForum, I can't answer that question as the admins/owners have not had the time to discuss the subject but I'm sure Polix will make a statement. I personally see no problem with it, being it would help the subspace community out as a whole, but whatever decision the SSCentral / SSForum Admins & Owners come to, I will fully support. But best of luck

so you can tell non ssc names from ssc names? Or did I miss where you guys figured out how to do that without name prefixes?

no, the non-ssc biller would still have the name prefixes (I *think*).

yea

closed, do NOT make another topic about this.

d1st, was that the plan for the Biller or the plan to get the src for continuum?

Being the zone is hosted on SSCC, talking to them would do you no good unless you are moving servers. Please come to me and I can give you information on your status for SSC Biller.

If you are disputing the ban, then please read the procedures for disputing NetBans: http://www.ssforum.net/index.php?showtopic=16089 If you are complaining about a NetOp, then the topic *is* in the wrong place. *moved*

you could with the Non SSC Billers.

Just browsing and came across this article that mentioned subspace. Nothing major about it, but subspace did work its way into the article "Gamespot is reporting that Shred Nebula, the first project from newly founded indie developer CrunchTime Games will be available on Xbox Live Arcade in gearly 2008 for the princely sum of 800 MS Points. CrunchTime head James Goddard refers to Shred Nebula as being something of a mash up between arcade classic Asteroids and the cult favourite multiplayer shooter SubSpace. The game will have 20 ships, each with their own strengths and weaknesses, working on a rock-paper-scissors type system. The game will have 40 maps, but CrunchTime isn't ready to spill details on the game's modes just yet. " http://www.xboxic.com/news/4038

Yes players in Non SSC zones using SSC registered names would be a huge problem. I can just see 10 priitks or Ghost Ships....

split/moved. Shock, if *I* were looking for ppl to do this "project", I would look to players like Kirk, Catid(?), Bak, Flabby, Grem, etc.

Yes, subspace has plenty of people with knowledge. Its just real life catches up with them all too often. Very rarely do you find a great dev person that can contribute 5+ hours a day on a subspace/continuum project these days. You're lucky if you can find one that can put in 5 hours a week on a project. There are still *some* guys out there that can put in the hours, but very very few. And even those guys are so swamped with projects for the zones they "work" for, that an added subspace project would be too much.

Its not a "netop" you need to contact. It is a Server Host that has access to the SSC Biller that you need to contact. And it is a necessary step for any serious zone. You will get ppl that say "ssc is overrated", "ssc sucks" etc...which some people feel that way and that is their opioion. But just download your zone list and look at the population of any Non SSC zone tonight and you can see for yourself how necessary it is. Yes maybe 3 years ago a zone could get 30 players without SSC, but that doesn't happen anymore.

Don't know if you care or not but the info on your Zone Reviews are way outdated.

Send me an e-mail at hosting@sscchosting.com

If there was a way to have the chat channels to work through SSC and Non SSC I would be all for that. But there isn't

Lets not start any DS/Halo/Any Zone bashing in this thread.

Having a server that has a bad setting and crashing the Biller is unacceptable. Giving anybody who can get a $20 hosting account access to the SSC Biller is a very bad idea and could only turnout bad. That is just one reason why access to the Biller is so "strict". Getting access to the Biller is not impossible, just takes time/effort. Most of the time it takes more time/effort than players are willing to put in.

Ok here is what you do. 1)Get your zone setup as close as you can to the "live" version. (maps, settings, bots, etc). 2)Contact a host that has access to the SSC Biller (Confess, Death+ or myself) 3)Get them to host your zone (without SSC Biller though) 4)Get your zone STABLE & 30+ pop on a regular basis 5)Have your host contact the Council and have them review your zone and approve/deny it SSC Biller Access. Thats about all the information I can give you atm. You said you had SSC multiple times? With that zone? Who hosted you in the past that had SSC?
