what do you look for in a server?

Just wondering what people look for or search for when trying to find a server in BF3? Take ours, there is already 100% ticket cq in the name and that is what I look for. maybe people are afraid of a clan server. I don't know. any suggestions on how to get our server to populate?

I want my server to have big ole boobs, nice arse , and great personality.Sorry I couldn't resist.

On Topic: Maybe put a half naked woman on the server dig with bacon.

I saw a double bacon cheeseburger server. Why not a Bacon's GOOD server, with a half naked woman wearing bacon.

I vote for the "C4 Bacon Jihad Server", picture of bacon strapped with C4 blowing the clothes of an attractive woman and a server description that says "See, everything is better with bacon and explosives. Rules: No C4"

Agreed. Put bacon in name of server and we will get more traffic...

CQ no more than 200%. I will even play stuff that is a mix with rush.

500% metro servers can suck it.

I still need more C4 kills, so I vote to strike the no c4 rule.

I guess I should've put the no C4 part in pink or purple or whatever the appropriate colour is.

maybe it's not the name but the arse whooping they receive once they join that is the problem

This is the problem. People come in, get stacked against 30's, abused, sodomized, and permanently scarred for life never to return. Usually we get one to two good games a night before the randoms scatter to the four winds and it becomes 30 on 30. We need to make sure we keep the games a little closer, ie enforcing the no spawn camping, give up a flag when we have all capped and a good lead. Closer games that don't result in a trip to the woodshed are going to keep randoms more inclined to play on our server.

full now. how long i dont know

Also I think a lot of our problem is trying to get an east coast server to populate later in the evening. I usually see it pretty full if I start playing on it at like 6-8PM EST.


*edit* lol, you made my point while I was creating this and I just powered on my PS3, I should be on soon.

I came and you weren't there...had a server full of asshats, well at least on my team and too unbalanced if I moved ....I left too.

I had to go to Crescent City and pick up some uniforms that I ordered. I will be on in a bit.

I say take out the "X30X clan" from title. The banner is fine. Most people are already joining before they notice that. Keeping the message simple like "200% Conquest" seems to work well. Our message now is kinda long and it scrolls.

Also, I think another problem is the clan tags. They usually give us away. That's why I changed mine (NRMF=No Regular Mother F*&#ers). Happened to us during the BLOPS days.

LOL, I saw that last night Crossfire. That IS some old school taggage. I also agree on the server ideas. Maybe we could come up with something like "Boobies and Beer"

I took the x30x off a couple of nights ago when this was first mentioned. I haven't messed with the message for the game start. I was anticipating an empty server when I got home last night and was suprised that it was still full and remained full for several games afterward. I mistakingly kicked the wrong player on damavand and he was pissed (understandably) but other than that it was full up util bazaar I think.

Yeah the server has been the place to be the last few days. It fills pretty quickly and stays that way for a while. Even when players leave it seems to refill and replace quickly as well. Ive seen a few idiots in there lately but its expected and they get dealt with easily. We had an issue with 3 lvl 100 colonels from the same clan (TAo) last night. They were spawn trapping on Damavand and im guessing they had VOIP on squad cause i couldnt hear them or they didnt answer me so i sent one of the a polite message asking them to stop. Instead of the normal go F urself or something to that nature i got a message telling me we had no right to ask of that and our rules violate the TOS agreement of owning a server. He also told me thats the way the game should be and was meant to be played. I once again politely told him thats the rules and we payed to rent the server so we'll choose what the rules are and if they didnt like it they could leave. He babbled on again about violations of agreements and shit so i gave up trying to deal with him. I wasted almost a whole match arguing with him and luckily for them they left when it was done or they were getting the boot. I told him to go do that shit in their server as they have no rules there. Ive been in their server before and they are extremely very good players and are out to spawntrap 100% of the time.

Those guys have some ridiculous stats. How the hell does one have over 1100 per minute?

USA_Demolish...whatever has over 950 hrs of game play. I'm imagining a young man that reeks of Mountain Dew and Cheetos...

For the record... Level 100 colonels obviously can't read.

This is on the agreement:

Server Administrators may implement and enforce rules that result in minor changes to gameplay behavior or styles as long as these are clearly stated before a player starts playing on a server. These rules typically introduce minor or limited restrictions on how a certain aspect of the game can be used, but do not create or promote an environment that would allow abuse of the scoring/award system. Examples of such rules that are acceptable are:

Disallowing repeated main base camping/attacking of bases that cannot be captured.
Limiting the use of mortars to a particular region of the map.
