View Full Version : Where does Phlorph go now! I need your input

So, unfortunately way back when when the server had issues, even though I was at release we lost people.
With the new server, and it's been rock hard stable for a long time now our numbers are up.
Depending on night, we usually are 80 - 100% full from anywhere from 5 - 7pm until ironically like 4am some nights.
This is a thread for suggesting things to make phlorph better -
is it time for more custom maps?
changes in stats?
Different vote styles?
More reserve slots?
Advertising?
Make phlorph a better place and put your 2 cents in
We are attending PDX lan, and I might have shirts for everyone - and I will be redoing the reserve slots some time soon -

I think the server should use warpath_final (name may be slightly different but it's the final one rather than v2 or v3) instead of the warpath version that phlorph currently uses.

I think he may be talking about the warpath with the covered bridge.

id like to see more full clans on the server as regulars... for awhile we had ICE and BFG and CiaB and BDB... now we just have BFG it seems... I know i have ELIT3 but reviving that hasnt been working
its just been hard to get real competition going on the server.. its easy for me to score in the top 3 nearly every round and hell, im playing melee medic half the time.
i dont know how to attract more regulars (and regular clans) but it would be really cool if it could happen

There is a brand new one called Warpath 2 that was released a few days ago if you want to check it out as well here:

Apparently it isn't as stalemate heavy as before. Also, I'd like to see more clan goers on the server. It's pretty bad when someone like me is able to break the Top 10 in stats.:p

te3 came around for a while but hasnt been on as much lately since league play has died down for the season. I'd love to see more clans too

Well I too would like to see more competition/variety - but TF2 is seeming to be a difficult game to keep many regulars around compared to other games. It seems to be a bit to newb friendly, even though there can be some awesome skill/teamwork. The newbs just seem to randomly surf through servers, without staying on one.
CS had the advantage of talking/socializing when dead, and games like DoD/NS were a bit more team oriented.
I've tried to keep up on features and updates, and population has been up, but I don't have an easy way to advertise. I don't think there is probably another server out there as powerful as phlorph especially at just 1 gaming instance.
We are going to have a prescense at PDX lan though, so hopefully we can churn up some more players.

NS night. STill looking forward to that and it may bring in a few cross-over players.
be nice to newbs. this weeks newb could be next months stats leader.
people stay with a server because of the people. if they feel like outsiders they'll move on.
also, people leave because of cobra. he smells and his wife dresses him funny.
