• What is a game slot?

Well, I was thinking about buying a server from [url]www.bbservers.co.uk[/url] and I wasn't sure what game slots were. I did a little searching and couldn't find anything. (I only found online slot machines. :P) Yes, I know this is probably a VERY stupid question, but I want to know.
Game slots are how many players the server can hold. If you want a server located in the UK, I would go with [url]http://bioservers.co.uk/[/url].
It's normally called a player slot I think.
Thanks. That will help me with my decision. @brocko, thanks for suggesting that. I completely forgot to check the location of the server. I am in America so i guess that's not a good host... :P
In that case, [url]http://www.xenonservers.com/[/url] :)
$0.55 a slot? SVN and sv_downloadurl hosting? you got to be kidding me. That's awesome.
It's actually sort of volume discount pricing; [url]http://www.xenonservers.com/pricing.php?game=gmod&cycle=monthly[/url], but definitely a great deal if you are looking for a larger server.
Just a heads up- bbserver's servers are in north america, not the UK.
I have used [url]www.bbservers.co.uk[/url] for quite some time and all I can say is that I have never before seen such dedication to server hosting. Right now I am running a 32-slot dedicated server + webserver with fast/dl for only 32 USD per month, heck I even get help with pretty much everything I want for free! The owner himself helps me out whenever I need help, heck he even helps me with coding! If you go for [url]www.bbservers.co.uk[/url] then I can guarantee that you will be satisfied. I have not had any stability problems whatsoever and it works like a charm, best server host I've ever had. Also brocko, stealing a potential customer like that was a dick move on your part.

Nobody can steal a customer, it's up for the customer to decide based on what he thinks of the options at hand. RATED BOX.

[QUOTE=Myrrdin;19497077]He at least WORKS for them.[/QUOTE] So? I'm referring him to better companies (at least in my opinion). I don't work for Bioservers.
[QUOTE=brocko;19497104]So? I'm referring him to better companies. [/QUOTE] That's personal opinion, not a fact.
[QUOTE=brocko;19497104]So? I'm referring him to better companies. I don't work for Bioservers.[/QUOTE] I was on about when you initially reffered him to Xenon.
[QUOTE=Teddi Orange;19497151]That's personal opinion, not a fact.[/QUOTE] Yes, you're right. Edited my post. [QUOTE=Myrrdin;19497179]I was on about when you initially reffered him to Xenon.[/QUOTE] I really don't think there is much of a difference; in my opinion, in terms of quality, Xenon is equally comparable to Bioservers. I was recommending what I thought would be in his best interest. Obviously Xenon would be my first recommendation for a US location.
Sorry for calling it a dick move, but you sort of led him astray when he was interested in renting a server from bb and in the end guided him to the host you work for.
I don't know, I like Art of War Central. Support's been fast when I called upon it. (inb4 "Oh, you must work for Art of War!" - I don't.)
