<div class="IPBDescription">Sorry I've been away</div> In the last 2 week hiatus (vacation) apparently cheating got pretty rampant on my server, since we follow a fairly strict policy of almost no admins. Mainly because the only real problem with large pubs IS the Admins. Anyways, all is well now, I'm back admining, and a new pair of low level admins have been put in to do light policing, but we're working completely on the policy that the gamers enjoyment comes first and foremost at all times. The server got a slight upgrade, and has been updated to the new beta code, so I welcome all to go and test it out and email me with their thoughts and comments on it, so I personally know what options are getting popular or are losing popularity. One thing I do REALLY want to stress is that I do not want any more emails asking why we are no longer a 30+ server. It is simply due to the netchan issue, and I am not willing to let the server sit in permanent loop on one map and make it admin reliant to get around. Otherwise pls all questions are welcome!
My thanks go out to all the emails that arrived during the vacation, some very informative pieces came through, and I input will be put to good use over the next week. I am also happy to say that people's interest in the server has been so great that I'll be buying the domain space etc. to put up a website and we'll be doing all the things that other high interest servers have been up to.
Oh one big thing I did want people to do. What are you favorite maps?! I mean other then the ones that origionally came with the game. I want to get a good list of 5 or so new maps that are playtested and solid, and people enjoy. The maplist needs to expand. Anyways, pls feel free to send me suggestions on this too, I look forward to seeing any of you on the server.

Personally I like ns_europa, I've seen it active on 3 servers at one time at the most (active as in people playing) and it is very playable. Although it has a dual-hive siege point (may change in 1.04, haven't tested it).
Gave a walkthough to ns_cilrais_1229 and reeeealy liked it. Don't know how it plays though. Should be fine.
I like 11th_hour_121 and its on some servers sometimes.
ns_dank_b6 is horrible in my oppinion but i guess it's still a beta.
the rest I don't know about. Definately put europa and cilaris in the rotation. Hopefully if people like your server enough they will be forced to go download the maps and they will get more exposure. One more thing I hated about CS was that there were tons of awesome maps that you could only play by yourself. As most of you know CS is not much of a 1 player game <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
Map makes little sense, and is really not that fun to play on IMO. Maps need to be better structured, (like all of the normals, except for bast, but that will be fixed so it does not matter anymore.
11th hour is VERY bad for the aliens. Nowhere to hide, and big open halways = gg.
Have not played any others.
Will give it a go tomorrow, nice to see a server owner "on the ball".

This is the best looking of all the maps, shame it's so small.
There is a tripple siege room too, yes it'll work in 1.04 too. The bottom hive you kill by building a siege in a vent, since the ground is infestated.
The fact I found this tripple siege within a minute in the command console doesn't say much for the dev of this map :o)

holy crap!!!
well if you are right then maybe a new map type has been created. Instead of securing hives it's just a batlle for who controls that spot!! HAHA
dlts_europa.bsp dlts=don't lose that spot
the custom NS maps so far are 11th hr, 11th hr121, atomicmass11, andromeda_beta12, cilaris_1999, cruisecontrol, dank, lost, greian, napo, next, runaround, seretoga, europa, outpost, and siege, if u use irc i can DDC them to you if you would like, #claneternity my nic is c|E-Box
As for the maps, I downloaded and played with Europa and found it to be really laggy on my system, much moreso than the default maps. Perhaps it still needs optimization?
I haven't been playing NS the past few weeks, so I guess I didn't notice any cheating, but it's nice to know you're taking care if it. Your server is pretty much the only one I play on. Also nice to know you're looking for new maps... the current maps are getting repetitious.
