Server will be open a week early, (Friday, Sept 1st). Should be around 4pm (CST).

Loose ends to finish up on the higher end this last week of planned editing, but it should be good for players to get started.
Client files needed are linked on the Tribal forums. Please direct all support questions to those forums. (Not Here)

Admins/moderators : This thread can be closed/locked at anytime in the future if you see fit for any reason. I will be putting a lot
of effort into keeping the support discussion on the Tribal forums. It's up to you, lolol

Default what happened

Whatever happened to the server? A few weeks ago I thought Beast was on Vacation and now the server is gone?

Yeah, he took it down to make some changes and now the website is gone and everything. I really liked it, hope he brings it back.

You know, in all honesty, that server was unintentionally made too easy. One player was max level, through all content in 4 days.

Will you be bringing it back, or should I look for a new server?

Some people will always power-game the code, it is the others that you should watch over. They will be the ones that set the standards for play. Ease of play does not mean lack of fun.

There is a lot that has to be redone and tone it down which I am going to do over a few months. I don't know whether
I am going to implement a character wipe or not, I'm still undecided. The forum website is not gone, all I did was disable
the domain pointer.

You planning on sticking with bots? Knew you had some issue with them and was curious if you were gonna try and rescale to opt outa bots.

Funny you should bring that up. I am going through that dilemma right now, trying to weigh the options with bots or not, how many or
whether to go with no boxing and spawn max 5 bots, or scrap the bots and go with 6 box limit. I definately need to lean towards the
ability to have a 6-toon group, either way. The future of the whole bot code (in emu) is looking a little grim right now.

You may not be interpreting my words correctly, but try keeping an eye on the github and judge for yourself.

I see. If I may ask, did you have technical problems with bots or only scaling problems?

There's been a mixture of a few issues that were totally relevant to my own intentions. Bots have had some "glitches", which were
dealt with, but anything else, is my own issues for custom purposes. The only real issue is for "bots out of the box" as they come, is
the casters. Clerics, for example are a mess. (spam casting CH, etc).
