Server Settings

Post by blane »

Could someone please post Tiger Networks Classic Play Server settings? (It's annoying to grab it out of the server-msg...)


thanks,
blane

Eventually I guess, but I'm sort of keeping them under wraps for 'official' Tigers Network servers ;).

We need an easy mechanism to export the server settings. More than once, I did a dl of aa to fix a quick lan game with friends, and the default settings are quite different than what is available, for example, on tigers network.

Alternatively, it would be really neat if someone came up with an easy repository of server settings files!

I can add a server settings category to the Breakfast off the Grid repository.

If you're that scared, don't post 'em.

Posting server settings: Growth decision
Not posting server settings: Fear decision

(Why didn't I post mine yet? Simple, they're on the other computer. I'll start up a real repository and start it up with mine, ok?)

It goes beyond that. I'm proud of the work and my ideas I put into getting Classic Play to be one of the most played servers out there. I'm not so old as you may have realized so for me I feel most things that I do turn out to be 'real' acomplishments for me, so I hate to do anything which I could precieve as endangering. Now you yourself Lucifer, are much older and therefor have more reallife experience, etc, etc, and this is more of a hobby to your or I don't know what all...

Where was I going with this? Ah, yes, I think Lucifer that limiting it to those two things is sort of an over simplification of the situation when you're an insecure 16 year old whose main experience has been that whenever he's changed anything that was working online it all goes to hell, sooo...

I simplified it for a reason. :) As an old man (apparently), I'm well aware of the dangers of oversimplification.

Sometime ago, a famous psychologist named Carl Rogers suggested that the purpose in life (getting downright philosophical) is to develop a sense of self-efficacy. Building on the work of Maslow, Rogers suggested that we should be striving to become a self-actualized person. One of the traits of a self-actualized person is that he/sh/it makes growth decisions, rather than fear decisions.

So, the purpose of the oversimplification, then, is not necessarily to criticize, but to point you (hopefully) in the direction of developnig a tool with which you can make growth decisions rather than fear decisions and further your own progress towards becoming a self-actualized person. :)

Oh yeah, and to try to convince you and everyone else here to take a psychology class. :)

That's besides the point, I see what you mean, but... Rawr. Too much to confront for me right now.

You guys must be going in a different order than we are. We haven't covered dysfunctional behavior as a separate topic, and behavior disorders are the last thing we'll cover before the final (we'll be covering it next week. Luckily my Comp I research paper was on overmedicating for behavior disorders, so I've already personally covered them pretty thoroughly).

Breakfast in Hell settings (0.9, you guys didn't know I was versioning them, did you?) are now posted on the Breakfast off the Grid website in the File Repository.

(1.0 will be up soon, it's not ready for release, and there's no cvs repository for it although I'll be making one soon, don't know when/if it'll be public)

well, the settings are hardly secret anyhow.. they are displayed on every connect. so anyone could copy it.

and: what would be bad about it? "your" server is yours because of the name (and moreso by the Hostname/IP) but surely not the settings. if server settings are so good that other admins copy them... i would be the last to object :)
