I think your missing my point lol why would you want to pay for a console instead of getting a free one?Originally Posted by MtnDew
Don't need to be rich, you just need to know how to save money.I could really care less about the new consoles at the moment anyway.
It's irrelevant and off topic, anyways keep up the hard work on the server and you do great.
Those who will fall for this fake reward and donate to server (vincent's) can say goodbye to well earned bucks.
carry on.
Lol nothing on this thread has been on topic so why say something now
this thread been offtopic since, wait.... first reply?
Grow up don't assume things until the server actually starts up. You never know, doubters will doubt. Right??
I base my doubts on the 3 other server vincent had last year and how he acts. None of us is jumping to conclusions and say this server would be shit, they are all basing it on facts. Sure it might be fun at start, but in the end he just shut it down with lame excuses.
If it's childish to warn people (young and old) so they wont lose lunch/earned money then so be it.
I think MtnDew is an old vincent account.
The reward will be given out during beta, nothing fake about it brother. Chances are more than likely that a known g4ler will win it too.
Thanks man and thanks for your pm.s, huge help.
why don't you give some explanation on why you left LegacyKO to die. I'm sure many of us want to hear that. You got a lot of money from there and then quit, let server to die. Do you plan on doing same thing with this server?
So you will be sending xbox to yourself or someone close to you? what a coincidence! =P Anyhow , I don't see reason to bump this topic anymore and if people still wishes to play on server hosted by this scum, then by all means go ahead.
@blackfox, he has done it more than twice already and scammers never change their habbits.
No, actually the reward will go to the winner of our competition. I appreciate your concerns though brother, but don't worry!

I think that while looking back at an owner's past servers to assess how their latest server will go usually gives an accurate assessment, some servers just have to be given the benefit of the doubt. Not all servers are like the dreaded F.... [nope, I have forgotten what it was called!] KO server, run by grobar (or such).
Although it's clear he desperately didn't want to have himself associated, even lying when confronted with the 'accusation', I can sort of understand the reason behind it, and am not entirely sure this alone is reason to dismiss the server.
Being dishonest about who's running things definitely doesn't help, but at the same time, if he had just told the truth from the start he'd be confronted with much the same dismissal, due to his past servers.
I think it's fair to say that peoples' problems with his servers (abandoning after a while, and presumably the associated "running off with the $") can be attributed to most servers; most servers struggle to last all that long, anyway.
In the past, if memory serves, his servers have really always had a pretty decent start, and were enjoyed. One would hope that he'd try to not repeat the same mistakes twice, so if you consider that every failure is a step closer to success, it definitely seems to be holding true so far.
Certainly, I wouldn't discount the possibility that this server will do OK. It's been a while since the last one, and he really needs to make the effort to show that he's not going to do what he's apparently "known to do" (again, being dishonest from the start really doesn't help there), but I think if he does, it could be a decent server. He just needs to put in the effort, and show that he wants to improve, which honestly could use a lot of work at this stage.
Also, I'm not trying to dismiss what's happened in the past, but really: that was in the past. Obviously it shouldn't be forgotten, merely taken with a grain of salt, and players should simply have faith that he wants to improve & not repeat the same mistakes (again though, that whole dishonesty thing is a huge setback to this, but it's too late now. Can be hard to have faith in someone that's been dishonest with you.).
So, while his past servers may be some indication to the contrary, consider how far apart they were spaced. Consider that priorities change, heck, people change.
It seems everyone's taking a slightly biased view of things: basing their opinions on what happened at the end of the server's life, and neglecting everything good about it.
If the problem is purely him potentially abandoning ship, perhaps he should be looking to address that in some way; maybe a reliable co-owner, or simply dropping back to a developer role & allowing someone else to manage it.
In this case, having a team with assigned roles would be a really good idea; losing one person doesn't mean the end of the server and leaves them the option of coming back when/if they're ready to do so.
Such rant. Very long.

Disclaimer: I probably don't have all the details about his past servers, I'm just going from what I've picked up on. If nothing of what I said makes sense/applies, oh well -- just ignore the poor lost & confused duck sitting in the corner.
This is really upsetting some of ya'll huh?..
