xaronax 2 Posted September 22, 2012 (edited) Hey guys. I've had a Lingor Island server set up for a couple of weeks now. We've got a bunch of enthusiastic people already calling it home, and I'd like to increase our population by inviting everyone to join us.I'm renting a monster of a dedicated machine, so the login times and lag are almost non-existent. 8 cores, 16gb of RAM, and hopefully an SSD next month if donations keep going the way they have been.I've banned over 2 dozen people for attempting to script. I'm using all custom exceptions and monitoring tools to keep the skiddies out.I've added the Lingor Units mod (found here[1] ) to spice things up a bit. There are a bunch of Police APCs and armored jeeps running around right now, as well as a MiG trainer jet and a Cessna prop plane. There's a bunch of other stuff too, but I don't want to give away all the surprises.Speaking of vehicles, I currently have between 70 and 80 in the server at any given time. This includes 3 helicopters. I've changed all of the vehicle spawn points to custom locations to encourage actual exploration instead of just using dayzdb or something.I've been spending 20-30 hours a week on server related stuff, and have gotten a ton of positive feedback for being an active admin. I reboot the server 2 or 3 times a day to keep the login and respawns quick, but even after being up for 12+ hours it's still faster than most servers (20-30 seconds at the most) to log in or respawn. I'm very open to suggestions about tweaking things to make it more fun. I enjoy a challenge, so the difficulty is currently on Veteran, with 3rd person enabled but crosshairs off. Personally I hate 3rd person, but it's the most popular option.This is rapidly turning into a wall of text, so I'll try to wrap it up. We've had a couple of events on the server controlled by myself and a few friends. Assassination missions, airstrikes, and other stuff. It's been a lot of fun. I hope to do one this evening if we can get enough people to make it worthwhile.One more thing; I have sole access to the database, and I am extremely proud of the integrity and trustworthiness that I am known for. I will never exploit this access like some other servers for personal gain. I do not view the coordinates of vehicles, tents, or players. I also do not edit my inventory or the inventory of any other players (exceptions include donators and special events). I will never kick you for killing me. I will never roll back the server if you find my tent. I hear nightmares about admins on other servers, and have experienced it personally.I hope you'll give the server a shot. I plan on running a Chernarus or Takistan/Fallujah map if we get enough people to fill it. Happy Hunting!TL;DR: We have an awesome Lingor server.

Steve.C 23 Posted October 1, 2012 Seriously, a great server.I play there as DennyCrane and have lived a long and productive life of giving taxi rides and helping everyone I can. Aronax is an awesome admin and NEVER has an ego.I donated to the server within a week, that's how much I enjoyed playing there. Solid group of dudes and very little drama.
