I don't agree with my board warning, and its differential treatment really when you can use that to force me to disengage with the conversation short of writing out a entire administrative complaint thread/nut perspective without outlying your own boundaries as you have done with goofball, which I think his actually was well worded and helped subvert the tension. Im going to walk away from this conversation thread now calmly and watch for the next few days.

In reality, we’re in a big changing-hands time where Scriptis will be our new host. MSO’s taking his leave in almost every part to recover from ten years of hosting, and Godspeed to him.
Terry’s down because a disk exploded or some shit, and MSO has expended his nigh limitless spirit over that ten years and we’re getting on the fix slower than you would like because of the handoff. No worries, though, she’ll be alive and kicking again ASAP.

heres a conspiracy; DrAndre343Halo hates this thread because it isn't one of the flood of emptypost ridden deluge paloozas forewarned by the wise Toronto88 during his gallant rebuke of the reviled saegrimr(whose prose would outshine his sour intentions if not for the triumph of Toronto that day) among others during times of true crisis in yesteryear's hut of good conjecture. So instilled with all good senses of justice was Toronto88, pride of only the honest components of the /tg/station forum and none else, that despite promises from the ranking tyrants of his day to the effect of that which he used to spread these warnings in such taut lexicon would be silenced with extreme prejudice, he prevailed in pinching the proverbial nose of those who would rather the forum for this uniquely abstract sociopolitical metaformation which infests the /tg/station project be instead trodden on for the benefit of their distended ego. His work done, and the nature of a good forum instilled in those who followed, Toronto88 absconded with all the trust in his departure being not the nail in the coffin of /tg/(in reference to /tg/station) but testament to the invariable triumph of those who find agreement in his philosophy. None could hold their head as high with the wind at their back as Toronto88 undoubtedly does today with deserved ease.

I did mis-quote, I’m so sorry— but I will personally inquire with the bigshots about the plans for Basil and whether it’s a funding issue or a playercount issue. If it’s the former, maybe we can push it back up, someday— but the latter is kinda tied to the same thing. If we had infinite cash we’d run every server forever.warbluke wrote: ↑Thu Oct 24, 2024 4:46 pmSo you're telling me that Basil is not down on purpose and that it will be put back up soon?DrAmazing343 wrote: ↑Tue Oct 22, 2024 1:20 am >Terry and Bagil are down on purpose

Re: damn it's dead

Right, the reason it’s down right now is NOT a funding issue— it’s apparently on the same physical server as Sybil, but as of right now the new host has spoken that we’re planning to keep it to Sybil+Terry (LRP) and Manuel/Campbell (MRP) until such a time as Sybil’s pop is regularly back to where it was last year— probably around the 60-80 ranges, daily, where it’ll be more viable to split the playerbase.
I understand that this answer is not going to be very satisfying, and that Basil being gone likely just means a few Basillites are stopping SS13 entirely while it’s gone, but I can understand the argument and I’m certainly not in control of the servers that are up or down any more than kicking them awake here and there.
Thank you for sticking around, regardless— I do hope you can find a home in exile on one of our other servers, and I hope pop fully recovers so we can put your fave back on the board. I’ll mirror this announcement to the Discord when I get home so it’s around in a more official capacity this time than the period of silence before when Basil went down initially.

It will be a fitting and foreshadowing name for the new LRP server to come.
