New v2 server?

Edit:

I heard back from a lot of people surprisingly quick. Thanks for all the responses, and was good to see some old names. A lot of the responses I received were that they had no interest in another v2 server. It was what I was expecting, but I figured it was still worth a shot to ask before shelving it for good.

I'll leave it to Aranock to keep the legacy going.

Realistically there aren't enough people to keep this server up, nevermind another...

However I do think you should be able to assist the admin of this server or perhaps "join forces" because I know you are quite the coder.

I like a lot of what you posted in terms of what is different, but not everything, IE the drug thing, drugs are easy enough to collect in this. I do like a lot of the other aspects though.

I would be interested in helping.

I concur, not enough population to have 2 servers but merge would be cool.

I have offered in the past to help out here. LordLava claimed to have it all under control already, at least at that time.

Even if LordLava was interested in my help, last I played on Aranock (which was well over a year back), I did not find a lot of the staff pleasant to deal with. I would get scolded for writing word like "crap" and "damn". Or scolded when asking what the recommended rank was on one of the new areas since I didn't want to get insta-gibbed. And for some reason, people still insist on enforcing the "no helping outside of group range" rule, which was annoying enough 15 years ago with 60 people on - such a rule now makes this like a single-player game with chat.

So if I were to put any time into Aranock, I would want to see a lot less strict rules. It was a while ago, so maybe things are much different now. But none of that really even matters unless LordLava is interested in me working with him.

I was more referring to vs. vanilla v2, not this server in particular. I believe I did find collection a bit tedious here as well, but that was more an issue of game speed - as in staying with the original speed of v2 is needlessly slow.

Spodi, check your PM. The vanilla looks great. Server needs some work though.
