"Bad" Servers

Anyone notice that a lot of the Jedi Academy servers are using passwords? Of the 11 servers that show up, maybe 5 are using passwords. What's up with that?

 

Since these usually aren't listed as clan servers, either the people are really paranoid about cheating or they haven't discovered the "privateclient" server command yet.

 

This command lets you "reserve" as many slots out of the game as you like only for players who use a certain password. Rather than protecting the entire game, you can let a certain number of "public" clients in, and reserve the last few slots for the admin and his friends.

 

Yeah, usually it's the SIEGE servers too.. they're password protected and full, kinda bites...! They know its in demand, so they want to make sure only their friends can get in.

 

 

Also, people can't run to get health in Lightsaber Challenges (if they do, the duel is servered and the fight is over).

 

 

 

The sadness of those who do that (role play) crap in the JK2/JA community is that they're desperate to role play but too cheap and lazy to invest in a REAL RPG and instead "pretend" by wasting a perfectly good first person action shooter. That'd be like loading up a C&C server and just chatting the whole time about politics instead of playing. Maybe fun for some, but it defeats the entire purpose of making the game in the first place.

 

And all that excessive honor stuff is just sore-loser mentality (IMNSHO). I bet if you follow all of their "rules" to the letter and still beat them 10-1 they'll still be mad and try to kick you or call you cheater. That's my cynical side kicking in again...

Free For All is a self explainatory term. Put your saber down in an FFA server and you should expect to die.

 

On the other side of the coin, server admins have the right to ban whoever they want for any reason they want. It's their server and they are paying for it and the bandwidth it uses.

 

The favorites list works, use it to your advantage, or instead of whining about other peoples servers, spend your own money and build/run your own server however you want.

 

As long as you whine about other peoples servers instead of running your own, it shows you have no respect or appreciation for those that do.
