Devaint Gamers (.:dG) is proud to advertise a new Half-Life 2 Roleplay server. When we founded 'Deviant Gamers', we wanted the community to be different from the rest. There are so many HL2RP servers which have very poor administration and ownership, making the server extremely dull for its players. We promise to dedicate ourselves to making your experience on our servers the best one out there. We provide fair administration, plenty of roleplay resources and our passion towards a well run server. Whether you choose to donate or not, you can count on plenty of attention from our administration team!

This roleplay server takes place in the Half-Life 2 universe and canon, and does not resemble reality in any shape or form. There are no real products or companies you see in today's world, or even people that exist within our universe.
Everything in this theme of roleplay is mostly fiction and is classified as a science fiction story. Half-Life 2 takes place many years ahead of the events of Half-Life and the Black Mesa Incident and we recommend to learn more about Half-Life 2 and Half-Life and you play both the retail games to get a good hook of the story.

-Administators go through a strict application process. If they have a successful application then they enter training before given thier powers.
-The Resistance community on the server is slowly building up. Allowing any new players who wish to follow the resistance path can influence where it heads.
-We have a map which is not used by a number of servers and has been released this year. In addition to this, we have added props to the map to stimulate role play in a number of different situations. This also means that the map is slightly different to any other communities.
-Deviant Gamers is here for the long run. So don't expect us to be shutting down any time soon. If you join to play, you will have a server to play on.
-We have a lot of possible investment which can be put into the community and its ideas. This is through contacts I have aquired through work, contacts with people who work in modeling, texturing and graphics art ect ect. This means the suggestions you give will actually me made as opposed to most communities which do a lot of talking about it but don't actually get it done.
-We host events that you, the players, suggest. You can mold the server as how you want it to be.
-We respect players. It is all to common for administrators to have thier power go to their head and become elitist. This is not the case at Deviant Gamers as we treat all players with respect which they deserve.

If you want people to join then don't make a shoddy advertisement promising things everybody else already does. It's like advertising an FPS for having guns in it.
generic hl2rp #999999999
yeah dude im completely excited to play just look at it!
1. new features wow! clockwork hl2rp never heard of that before
2. the story is so interesting i think they wrote it themselves!
3. admins are strictly hired that must make a difference!
4. the rebel resistance is building up slowly as opposed to quickly or not at all, how invigorating!
5. they host events you suggest, unless it goes against canon (everything goes again hl2rp canon oops)
6. they respect players! wow! unique!
No but seriously, come on, you need to give your server a bit more... flair, something that makes it stand out from the crowd.
Don't want to stand out from the crowd? Making it just for your community? Thats fine, then just dont post it here.

Why don't you put creativity into your posts like for example by giving constructive criticism unlike every single person I am trying to describe.

If you can't infer from what I said that it's the same as everybody elses, then that's kind of lame
And I don't really know what more advice you want that hasn't been already posted in these threads a billion times.
The advertisement is visually boring, no screenshots. It has no unique properties that would have people join the server. Furthermore, the server is almost always empty during the day, there's no server website, it generally looks like there was no work put into it at all. If you WANT to get players, get an interesting idea that will attract players. They shouldn't just copy what everybody else does, because clearly, after thousands of server deaths, isn't working out.
And seriously, if you can't take criticism/very basic comments and replying without supplying your own argument against comment, you shouldn't be hosting a server, or in this case, whining about how it isn't giving advice. I don't remember this being the "constructive criticism on my server" thread/forum. If you ask nicely your going to get it. See [url]http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1237509[/url]. If you post it like an advertisement begging for players to join, your going to get criticized on it.
Oh god, another pezzo di merda..

I think you need to understand that although you see this frequently, others don't. If you take a more friendly approach, both sides are more likely to benefit, rather than making yourself look bad and leaving the community no better off.

Thank you for your help. We will take everything suggested and rework a new thread in the future.
You know a friendly approach probably would have been taken had the owner not called me ignorant for a very simple comment.
He isn't the owner. I am.
And to be fair, your comment was somewhat arguement invoking.
However, it doesn't matter. Thank you for your feedback.

lmao who honestly cares crawl back to your general discussion holes you vermin go
[editline]11th March 2013[/editline]
in all seriousness though if you aren't interested in the server ignore the thread you damn anime fiends
The bottom line is Bloodprime, the owner, is not responsible for copied material.
Half Life 2 Roleplay isn't for everyone, and in all fairness there isn't all that much room for individuality among servers. People are here trying to shoot down a server which is trying to populate for no other reason than to make themselves feel powerful. On that note, if you do enjoy HL2 and HL2RP, feel free to join our community. I suppose that is the essence here - we all just wish to have a good time and this drama is more than uncalled for, honestly.

Well, that's a shame.
Don't join - I guess.
If you wish, you can install some plugins I've made so your server will include more features:

Not really, your 'quote' is rather inaccurate. I don't see him mention anywhere that we shouldn't be advertising servers, but rather the drama and arguments are completely unnecessary. For example, i don't think you've made any contribution to the thread other than attempting to exercise your wit.

He was directing that part at you, not people advertising their servers.
This is like arguing with children. Look at you all rating each others posts and giving mine negative ratings. Seriously, step back and look at the situation.
