Title: Talks of getting GVH removed (for a day)
Post by: CutmanMike on September 07, 2009, 08:52:31 AM
I know a lot of you don't really visit the Skulltag forums much, but there's a discussion to get GVH banned/excluded from the master server for a day (while it wasn't the initial idea, it will probably come to that eventually).

http://skulltag.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=21186 (http://skulltag.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=21186)

What are your personal thoughts on this? I won't really share my own as it would be completely biased, but I will say to me it doesn't even feel like GVH is being played as no one is using the correct version.

In addition I've put a poll on my website to see what people would be doing should this actually happen. Vote away. (http://cutstuff.net/blog/)

I really do not agree with this. They really haven't looked at the server list in a while. I checked earlier today, and there was only one GvH server, and it had only 8 people. I do not think this is within their rights to take GvH away, even for a day.

I may or may not edit this post in the future to elaborate more on it.

Stupidest fucking idea ever.

It's not going to change anything. The servers will re-populate the exact day that they go up.

I disagree with the principle of it, but honestly it won't affect me. I refuse to play on the Czech server, and no more than three or four people ever come into the 97E server (which has Crudreams that nobody likes and conflicts with the GvH maps >_> ).

Yeah hopefully 97e final will fix those problems

I totally agree with this. I want some variety rather than just GvH. If there was no GvH for a day then I could play DeathMatch, SkullTag, Possession. All great gameplay types, but GvH dominates and bores the shit out of me. GvH is good, yes, but it is so boring after being the only game I can play.

It's a rather silly idea. Now a days GvH isn't even populated. Usually one server at best, generally around 2-8 people in it. As far as I can tell. Skulltag wants competition, barely anyone plays it. So they go find some scape goat to blame and I highly doubt removing GvH for a day will make it that much of a drastic difference.

What the fuckery? No! I love GVH. It's the only thing I ever play these days, besides armageddon invasion when I get bored of testing AEoD.

It won't happen in my opinion.

I think Gvh SHOULD be down for a day..just to give all those people without lives a chance to go out,meet some friends and get a bath, I WAS a Gvh addict, but the mere fact that it got overrun with kids and fags put me and a few other "Adult" friends off.

I will admit that servers not occasionally swapping out for some fresh air is the server owners faults, and they are to blame for the congestion of GvH. It's not Cutman's fault at all. Cutman, you made a really good wad. It's just some people over-exaggerate the dominance of GvH over other wads...

...get down gvh for 1 day...im not sure what to say because is true what gvh is over rated, but clans, skulltag, runescape and trolls too.

As far as GvH popularity goes, it may not me as popular as it was before, yet still... I still see a fair amount of players, even if they only play in one single server with an outdated version of GvH (Oblacek #04)
Hopefully that will change when Skulltag devellopers finally decide to make 97e official.
As far as their descision about removing GvH for a day goes, it's rediculous. I don't know what they're trying to prove. Frankly I agree with Ivory, I think they are just looking for a culprit in their pathetic attempts to "bring doom competition to Skulltag" as if there where really anything that special about it.
I say it's not gonna work and they are wasting their time/breaths.

Also, Hi all, 1st post.

Well, this fell through for obvious reasons. Off it goes.
