SERVER UPDATE
Well we were prepared to launch when SwissAssassin decided to come on the server and destroy all our progress. The old owner believed I was not fit to run it. He also believed the server would die without him anyway. Well as far as I can see he was the one that caused the problem on the server. Im sorry to say this but the launch will be pushed back a bit more but don't fret we have a backup of the map.
it is truly unfortunate that the swissassassin that everyone knew and loved would do this. but think about this, how many instances of stupid drama were started because of swiss, or one of the rules he enacted without listening to anyone elses opinion? do you really think the server will fail without him running the server even though he said he only did it for the money? thats right people, if you donated swiss pocketed that money because his dad payed for the server the whole time.
I would apply but there are a few reasons I won't. 1st of all, if your NCR soldiers have jobs like Farmer, Chef, Miner than your just a faction server with RP. If you don't have enough civilians then you shouldn't be allowing factions yet. Legion doesn't recruit slaves. The slaves can't get into the army. They're doomed for life with being a slave of the legion. Third, PipBoys are one of the rarest commodities in the waste. Your PvP rules are also as strict as a police guideline for firing their weapon. And what are the Legion doing in Utah? If they pass the Colorado into a territory as heavily guarded as this one sounds like, then they're guaranteed to be attacked. That would NEVER happen. And then the "No killing in faction bases OR neutral towns or cities" So basically... No killing except for the wasteland where no one dare go. Lots of other things I go complain about, but I won't bother.
Name - I don't know if this IGN or real name, so I shall put both: Josh. IGN: EpicDoopliss
Gender - Male
Age - I'm sorry, I do not like to give my age out, but I am mature, if I may say so myself.
RP example - I've RP'd back on an old site 2 years ago. I've RP'd minorly, but school and work has got in the way. I'd love to apply for this server because I love the Fallout series, and RPing and I'd like to start RPing again.
Biography [About a paragraph or 2] - I'm a computer hog, if I may say so myself. I don't know when I started, but I think it was when I saw older people laughing at a computer. Ever since then, I've just learned to do stuff on computers. Make videos, small little game maker games, RP, play games, etc. Everything else is well, personal. What's happened in my real life is really something I don't like to talk about. I'd rather talk about my virtual life then my real life. I'm sorry, but it's just a little too personal.
I'd love to be in this server. I hope I make it in.
So he gives the server to the people, Commando makes a legitimate effort, and Swiss decides that it's wrong to watch other people succeed? I find it hard to believe that something like that could happen. If it's true, then he's more immature than I had thought.
Just because one person succeeds where you didn't doesn't mean that you have to make sure they fail as well.
Swiss had his chance. The best thing he could do was own up to the mistakes he made and leave the server in capable hands for another shot. I can't wait to see the server up, running and successful just out of spite for him. If you're that attached to something that you'd go so far to sabotage it just so someone else can't have it, you've lost all my support and it goes without saying you've lost the support of the community as well.

My thoughts exactly.
As for that complaint earlier, Utah is legion territory and this takes place way after fallout new Vegas. If you don't like it, try seeing another "fallout" server that added in soviets to the strip.
I mean honestly? We're a fallout based server, we can't follow things to a T.

I hate to sound like a broken record with the two above me, but yeah.. hear hear!
As for that complaint, I'll go in a little bit more detail...
Yes NCR soldiers have jobs like farmer, Chef and Miner. The factions are military in nature, though common wastelanders can pledge their allegiance to the factions. We have plenty of wastelanders by the way, but not enough to outnumber the three factions combined. Probably more then a single faction though.
Anyway, back to the complaint. The NCR here is an advanced unit, set out to aid the vault in Utah, and when no help from home was forthcoming, they decided to build an outpost and hold their position. (Read the timeline.) To do that, they needed to get supplies that Legion wouldn't be able to interrupt too badly, hence the military being given optional jobs.
As for your Legion complaint, yes they don't recruit slave, they enslave slaves. However, to keep it an RP experience where you can develop your character somewhat, even if you suddenly got enslaved, there are options of being sold back into freedom, gaining respect from the legion - enough to be on a shorter leash, etc. Yes as a slave you will likely never be a high ranking Legionaire, but you will probably get the chance to become a basic foot soldier, allbeit with less respect and more caution towards you. Assuming you survive that long.
As for the PvP rules, they are in place to ensure random killings won't take place. This is also why we do not have Raiders. We do not want completely random kills without any type of warning. Even in the game, people who are about to kill you will shout out first, allbeit as a battle cry. Fair play is important to enjoy the game, but KoS on things like private property might be discussed, but I'm not sure about that. In the standard situation though, KoS is never allowed.
As for the "No killing in faction bases or neutral towns or cities" rule, it has been our experience that few people spend a long time in cities. The faction members who head to cities will also need to pass trough quite a stretch of Wasteland to get there, and there are a lot of wastelanders who live in ruins of old cities, or simply do not have the money to buy a house in a city.
In short, yes, you can pretty much only kill in the wasteland, but you are sadly mistaken if you think the wasteland is usually void of people.
Hell, Traders go from city to city all the time, or to faction outposts to sell their goods, or even make a house in the wasteland for people to contact them.
In short, your arguments are all invalid - unless you want to kill everything and everyone, in which case we honestly don't welcome you with very warm hearts.
I'm at school right now but all mods should add my skype: ascothero.
And if you're up for helping us get a new site or forum site or general ideas or improvements, etc add me there as well.
Anyone else, be sure to add me on steam for group chats if mumble is not up soon.
My steam is ascothero.
Well It is sad to see that Swiss took that all down, I can't say I agree with it but I understand why. After so many tries and so many mishaps its not surprising to see why he would be discouraged, but doesn't mean it's not worth trying again. Swiss had sent me a PM about not giving everyone the map and to keep it locked away, but even though it was his server at the time I am not going to do that.
This is your map everyone, this is your server, and as long as you all keep demanding it then I'll be here to keep it running. So with that being said I am back, ready to set up the server, install the map, and get us back up and running in no time.
See you soon Wastelanders, and keep your guns ready.
Tyler, you were always a cool guy who doesn't afraid of anything. Thanks for sticking with us.

After everything Ive done to make this server what it is and was? Not gonna leave it yet. Its got legs, they are just broken; we will get them running eventually though.
Since we don't have TeamSpeak or Mumble Yet
I thought I'd bring back the good old Mibbit, most of you probably don't rember but the last time we used mibbit was when there was no communication left and we needed the server admins to talk about keeping the server up. But that's old news, the point is that I have a channel set up for us right now; linked right here. Come hang out and talk while we wait for the server to ready.
Denied.
we welcome everyone who can behave, so all that other things don't matter. please use our application next time to, oh and a rp example is a description of and rp situation. you Biography is for your character, not yourself
Alrighty, I'm writing a new application right now.
Dex its been so long hows it going?
Goin' great and you ?
