Posted October 14, 2015 (edited) Manawurm - http://manawurm.com/Basic informationWe're a small community lead by myself a csharp programming and server administrator hoping to primarily use the servers and community to test any future mods I might make, What you should expect is some extremely reliable servers all hosted in one of the two data centers I am partnered with the primary being. rackforce which is a canadian datacenter.We've not decided on much yet I can't throw down a beautiful list of expected features because I believe the community should be the deciding factor in how the servers are configured.Staff policyUnfortunately having staff with a nonprofit setup like this can lead to misfortune when it comes to GM's and simply not allowing them to have fun and play as a player would will lead to failure and a constant shuffle of staff members ultimately leading to the clusters failure. I'm hoping to automate most of the GM process using mods and limit the GM team to 1-3 extraordinarily reliable people who have no drive to play the game and simply enjoy helping.Launch dayMost likely we won't have any map tools comes launch day so we will be forced to use what the game comes with which is 2 beautiful and rather large maps, That leaves us with 1&1 PVP&PVE side by side which isn't ideal as we've discussed on our forums arranging the servers is vital to having a healthy PVP setup without alienating PVE. What might be necessary is a few months in after we've designed the maps we're happy with moving over all existing characters and just sucking it up and dealing with a map wipe but this is something that will be discussed within the community and decided on as a community but PVP wipes should be expected.Back-endOne thing you can always count on with our cluster is the back-end of things will be tight and reliable, I've got more servers sitting around then I could ever actually put to use having access to my own racks and multiple data centers across Canada, I'm able to run these extremely powerful machines at no cost so there will never be a need to collect donations to keep our services running. I keep these servers hardware up to date and running good for my own needs as a programmer. I'm working on a few of my own games that can barely scratch the surface of using these servers to there full potential.HiringI will be seeking several if not more very knowledgeable people willing to take up arms and sit there for countless hours helping the flood of new steam players that will know absolutely nothing about the game, the first step in getting involved is heading over to our forums and inserting your opinion everywhere you can about how things should be operated.MapsPVE1PVE2PVP1CommunityWe're just a forum at this point, please don't judge the theme & background I threw this together pretty quickly and when I have more time ill tweak it and make it pretty.http://manawurm.com/ Edited October 17, 2015 by yashua 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
