ABOUT JUST HAVE FUN!

Where did the fun go?

This group is dedicated to all the people out there, who have tried to not minge, who have only sought to make others happy, to make good with others. TO HAVE FUN!

Too many times have I seen good people crushed under the massive floods of people who minge and scream and shout and cry and do bad to others because they are selfish, WHY!? I don't know why they do what they do but we are better, we are the people in the world who truly just want to HAVE FUN, and make the place where we play good for others too.

If you have a server that has gone down due to terrible people, management, etc. Post a comment, I will find the whole story and I will make the tale and commemorate that once epic server you loved, and that others probably loved too.

Fall of Mcbuilds Spacebuild Servers Part 2

3 July, 2011 - TakaKenji | 0 Comments

Greed took over, admins demanded "godlike" priveliges in exchange for the addons that the server was using. Threataning John that they would take back their code if their wishes were not granted. Many of these addons were community projects with no specific owner. When admins went to war and bickered over who owned what, John intervened, with a flood of bans, the old admins were swept away, only those truly faithful remained. A clean fix and a fresh start seemed to work, but soon would be proved very broken.

Planted as a last resort, one of the faithful, steevoo had autobanning scripts and viruses planted throughout the addons and server files. A cancer that would self replicate soon held the servers within an inch of their lives. It would be weeks before John and a few others would have cut away the cancer and restarted the servers, to no avail. For months after the bombs fell, mcbuilds suffered a lack of players and lack of interest, with the community long gone, mcbuilds was left to die. A few visionaries stayed true, those that remained faithful. they attempted to rebuild the servers, remake the desert in their own image. But the substance taht would enable such, the glorious addons, were leaked by one of the fallen faithful in the last weeks of the land. John, the almighty admin, lacked drive to continue the fight against those who would seek to destroy all he had built. The fallen ones relentlessly attacked the servers with DDOS attacks and hacking. When John scattered the servers to the wind, those who remained faithful faded away, keeping with them the secrets of the addons and the vision they shared. Mcbuilds faded into the dust, riddled with holes from the corrupt and poisened by the worst of the internet community, A shining beacon in the dark sea of mingery and destruction, shone no more.

Perhaps one day the vision of the faithful will be fulfilled, but it will be a long time before that may come to pass.

Story said and done, it is a sad day in garrysmod when a server dies, what are your thoughts?

Fall of Mcbuilds Spacebuild Servers Part 1

3 July, 2011 - TakaKenji | 0 Comments

I come with a story, a sad one at that, a tale of deceit and a tale of loss.
Some of these events told within may not be entirely true and are open to clarification if necessary.

The Fall of McBuilds

Once upon a time,
In a server far far away...

A community of builders and coders lived in harmony building massive space faring vessels that spanned the skies. This land was that of the Mcbuild Spacebuild servers. During a time of peace the land was ruled by the all powerful and all seeing admin "John" and his faithful.
Owner of said servers, John recruited the best and brightest of those around him to develop addons of all types that would come to revolutionize spacebuild. Ship Cores, laser weapons and custom models were all mcbuild exclusive, and players would flock to the servers to use these addons. Ship cores revolutionized space combat, as now a ship could take tremendous damage, and yet not lose a critical prop. A thriving community was started and they organized in a singe forum. A haven for advanced creation, mcbuilds boasted many coders, many of which showed only the surface of their skills in advanced expression 2 chips. John and his trusted few ruled the servers with an iron fist but they were not without reason. However, Players new to wire were not very well respected by the coders, mocked for lag generating creations, mcbuilds primary audience was that of the wiremod sector of the garry's mod community. Mcbuilds lasted for months as a thriving community of like minded builders, but a conflict from within would soon lead to a war of the servers within the community.

A blow from within soon sealed the fate of the mcbuild servers. While all was well for many months peace existed between the admins, players, and the all seeing eye of John. One of the faithful would soon betray the hand that fed him. In the last few months of activity in the land of mcbuilds, admins swept with little patience and nothing of value to lose, banned dozens of people they did not like, leaving only a small group of people left playing on the servers. The community fled, only maintaining on the forum, left the servers and all their creation behind them. Admins were the only ones left playing on the server, and they turned on eachother. With the community gone, the admins went to war. Was it over one too many kills? a dispute over who made what? who knows what small event sparked the war that would end a shining community.
