Should we bring the Scorpious2k server back?

Scorpious2k · #1 10-10-2006, 07:02 AM

I have been asked this, and since no one is running a clone right now except Sarland (Gothic Circle) and it is being highly modifed, I thought I would pass the question on.

I would help as much as I can, but would probably let Dindoleki and Mattmeck run it so I could concentrate on working on the new game.

I voted NO.

Reason there are enough servers already.

I said YES but only because I have high hopes.

Little back history

S2K was a "G" rated server, family friendly.

100% customly spawned, with 100% custom quests, and several custom zones, and has the custom Merchant class.

Bans come quick for hackers, exploiters, and people who dont respect the G rating.

There is events scripted to turn certain zones into holiday zones, holloween, X-mass etc. With custom loot, backround music, mobs.

GM events were frequent, and Donators got a decient cape (not overpowered) and access to custom made zones just for them.

Clearly someone who hasn't played on S2K....."enough servers"? HEHE

I played the s2k server for a while, and had a great time. I am assuming, if you bring it back, it will be a fresh start? Or will it be possible to still play as my old character?

Voted yes either way.

No character wipe, everyones old characters are still there.

Plenty of servers, but very few quality servers.

Voted yes.

One of my fav servers of all time. About the only one I ever stuck with long term. If you guys bring it back up I'll tinker around on it for sure. Fun Server.

CrabClaw · #10 10-10-2006, 09:30 PM

I vote yes! I love seeing custom content vs. the stuff I payed for too many years.

s2k was the only server worth sticking around for, and it still is.

Love the hated / loved

I kept all your old chars around for 6 months.
nobody claimed them so they got wiped.
S2K is still alive and well.... just in another fourm now with a lot more custom zones and items.

I been working on the code for 6 months trying to get it updated to version 7.0.
I do run a clone of it but it's totaly different from the orginal one so I say go ahead and have at it.

If we are going to bring it back, we will need donations to bring it up and keep it running... the donate button is on http://scorpious2k.info Donators will receive the same benefits as before PLUS they will be the first to get on the server when it comes up.

I'll need a PM telling me your forum name (from the mantis forum http://www.scorpious2k.net/mantis/disclaimer.html where we will have the s2k forums), account name, email used with paypal, and amount donated.

*looks around and wonders where everyone went when he said "donations" *

RexChaos · #15 10-12-2006, 01:09 AM

If it's anything like SoD then I'd be willing to donate, but I'm not going to donate without tryign it out first. I donate monthly to SoD though and have always donated to them as long as I was playing.
