[QUOTE=PonceDeLeon;38364600]tbh the post requirement isn't even all that high, its generously low in my opinion.[/QUOTE] It's true, but man... I'm more of a lurker than a talker, so my post count is really low. I could really use this, though. I used to run a Garry's Mod server last year, and people keep asking me if I can get it back up. Just can't afford it right now.
[QUOTE=darksoul69;38363039]I'm going to be raising the cap to 300 shortly.[/QUOTE] Go 1,000 :v: Oh wait... [editline]8th November 2012[/editline] Cap = 826

I opened an account in 2009 and used it for one or two posts, but then I didn't use it for quite a while - I want to say a year or two. It's not about the time that matters, it's about activity.
Darksoul, this is an amazing thing that you have done for the community. Cudos!
Just Realized my server had been setup, thank you! Oddly I can't seem to access the game services tab, I can get into everything else though. I just opened a ticket.
Is it just me or is the Game Services page on the Control Panel never loading?
[QUOTE=wauterboi;38370527]Is it just me or is the Game Services page on the Control Panel never loading?[/QUOTE] Happens to me also with the server I bought from elipishost.
[QUOTE=wauterboi;38370527]Is it just me or is the Game Services page on the Control Panel never loading?[/QUOTE] yay another monitor crash I love you tcadmin!
lol the day I finally get a chance to update my Garry's Mod server as it wasn't letting people join my phone sends me the email saying it's been terminated well sheeeet [editline]8th November 2012[/editline] shitty pageking fuck
[url]https://www.elpishost.com/newest/[/url] What can I change/add?
Also, this was the original that I whipped up: [url]http://www.wauterboi.com/elpishost[/url] He liked it and took a stab at doing a similar layout. Posting just to keep the ideas flowing.
A link to the client area at the top right, please it's frustrating to go to the order page, then client area, and then log in
[QUOTE=darksoul69;38373374][url]https://www.elpishost.com/newest/[/url] What can I change/add?[/QUOTE] IMO, the front page looks decent, but what you really need is an easily visible link to a page that shows ALL of the available game server types, and base prices before logging into anything or ordering (also, the "Sales" and "Order" links are confusing, you might think about renaming at least one of them). Oh, and the 3 text blocks in the middle of the page look a little bland if you ask me. Perhaps a semi-transparent background image behind the text in the boxes would make them visually stand out a bit more... something a bit like this (pardon the bad shop): [url]http://b.elup.me/ifFU-Tet.png[/url]

[QUOTE=darksoul69;38374685]Regarding the background images, while I do like the concept it's not really my style - I'm going for a plain/simple look, nothing fancy.[/QUOTE] Was just a suggestion. Just beware the dangers of going too simple. Limited visual cues help grab attention. ;)
I very much support this effort, and would donate if I had to money to. Thanks for helping the community Dark!
Alright got my server, but i have no idea how to start/connect/modify it. This is embarrassing.
[QUOTE=SHYoshi;38385401]Alright got my server, but i have no idea how to start/connect/modify it. This is embarrassing.[/QUOTE] Should I create some guides in my knowledgebase to help new server owners?
Feedback from players all say that the server is running really smooth and it doesn't ever glitch, jump, or 'rubberband'.
Alright i figured everything out. Except i don't know how to upload my folders from the desktop into the file manager. [B]EDIT: [/B] FTP link is forbidden. I'm so confused here.

[QUOTE=SHYoshi;38387089]Ugh, sourcemod and metamod aren't working. Am i like not supposed to use the snapshot version?[/QUOTE] Seriously this isn't a support forum... please open a ticket if you have a problem and you need help.
You should start taking servers away if they're selfish enough to post their problems here when you simply requested them not to and are providing them with a [i][b]free[/b][/i] server.
[QUOTE=darksoul69;38385891]Should I create some guides in my knowledgebase to help new server owners?[/QUOTE] Is it possible to make it some sort of wiki? I'm sure a lot of people would be happy to help fill it with useful info.
Btw Dark, further delay on the notice if I'm closing that Minecraft server I got or not- On this monday we'll have a talk about it, if we're gonna keep it or not.
Dang, this is a really good service, and if I had 250 posts, I would use it. You're a cool dude, darksoul69.
[QUOTE=Xtrememan;38401277]Dang, this is a really good service, and if I had 250 posts, I would use it. You're a cool dude, darksoul69.[/QUOTE] 500. Thanks though!
[quote] If you have over 500 posts then PM Darksoul69 to get started. Include what you want and how many slots along with how many players you are expecting to actually be on your server. Please do not PM me if you have under [B]250[/B] posts as this is to give back to the active, older members on Facepunch.[/quote] You forgot to change the second part
