Hey all, long time no speak :)

I've recently begun to establish a permanent 24/7 host for my server, so I was thinknig of putting the project (which has been on hold for a while) back into progress. Beforehand though, I would like to know whether people would be interested in playing a proper RPing server?

Basically, what I mean is you start at level 1, and level as you do in the normal game (maybe slightly faster exp, but nothing like super stats). It would involve the following:

1x-5x rates
COMPLETELY new maps (Using nothing old - map making is something I can say I'm okay at)
Redone Database files (using old items, but incorporating loads of new stuff into it)
LOADS of new quests (I mean, enough to last a lifetime :))
New graphics, special feature hexes, etc.

Rather than all these high stat servers, which you max out in a couple of days time (and then everyone resorts to PKing, etc), I'd rather do something a lot more serious - pretty much remaking the whole of Legend of Mir for a whole new experience.

Be no corrupt GMs (me and 2 others whom I trust), and the server would be completely lagless.

Is this sounding good, or am I just wasting my time?

As DevilsKnight said, people have said this before but I've never seen it come through. The lots of quests things is what makes a server for me really, and group hunting and that. Most servers are just level, level, level. Only one server had lots of quests to do besides level and that was Torozor 1.4. Good luck with it anyway and I'm always on MSN if you need help, [email protected] :)

Well, I've got the default server hosted, and I'm in the process of producing my very own set of maps. I'm estimating this project will take me about 3 weeks to complete - maybe sooner I'm not sure.

Must also note the server will only be 1.4 - all my 1.9 stuff keeps corrupting on me (and that's why I originally gave up in the first place).

But like all good servers, it will just get hacked in the 1.4 section =/

But i may be able to block out the main cheat program that gets used :P

Is 1.9 more hack-proof than 1.4?

Hacking is probably the only thing I'm worried about at the moment, as it'll completely spoil the server. What I'm thinking of doing is making the server invite only, and I'll email people who I think are safe enough to play it :/ I know it's gay, but I've heard 1001 tales about hacks ruining games, and I've experienced many people who are involved in that kind of stuff, so I'm going to try my best and make sure it doesn't happen.

I think 1.4 and 1.9 are at the same level of security, as the GameGate with added protection works for 1.4. I think, don't quote me but I think it does. I think just make it 1.4. There's something about 1.9 that makes it feel...just not the same as 1.4 ^_^
