bros Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 (edited) I love Apis for lots of reasons, not the least of which is their response time to trouble tickets. Last night at around 11:30 pm PDT our forums went down, along with every other forum we host, because we were at 99.9% disk usage. Within ten minutes of my putting in the trouble ticket, Matt temporarily increased my disk space enough for our forums to be back up. Apis Bros for this thread and all his work in this area for everyone who plays this game. Sounds like someone on your server was abusing resources. you too. I should probably switch my private domain to Galaxyhost, haven't heard any complaints from NpO about them. You're the one who told me to write this thing in the first place, Moo.

Imhotep Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 What kind of crazy world is it where bros2 is now the forum host for the NPO? (At least I think I read that right.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bros Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 Not forum host of the NPO, that is Moo's job, Koona manages them. I just know a lot about them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firestorm Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 That's a big wall of text, but one of those rare ones worth reading. Good show duncan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack the great Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 An interesting read. Nice guide DK I think Soldier might take some of those ideas into account Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigwoody Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 This is good stuff, most disagreements I could think of are minor details, and its pretty comprehensive. Noobs considering an alliance would do well to peruse this carefully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Boris Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Good read, Duncan. Kinda surprised to see not too much touched on about the overall need to educate members, but I suppose stuff like that tends to be done mostly with handing them basic guides and primers, anyways.

Duncan King Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Good read, Duncan.Kinda surprised to see not too much touched on about the overall need to educate members, but I suppose stuff like that tends to be done mostly with handing them basic guides and primers, anyways. It's under the "Active Members" section. There are many different ways to do an academy, so I didn't want to go into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avernite Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Nice guide, even if you, as most people, have posted the generic talk about democratic and especially autocratic governments that I disagree with; but overall a nice guide. If only we had had this when we founded TOP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringMeTheHorizon Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Very good, its well informed and explains itself neatly. A little long for most people to take seriously and read, but if you do its well worth the while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stumpy Jung Il Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 (edited) A decent guide to be honest. However, Im not sure if Id want to learn from Duncan of all people!

princessro07 Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Obviously isn't going to apply to everyone, but a great read for anyone who's thinking about taking off on their own. Good job DK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anu Drake Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Wait, since this was made for Carnival do we have copyright ownership? I think we should. Kidding, amazing read DK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caesar833 Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Not a bad guide at all. Problem is those who need it wont see it. Those who read it here normally dont need it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cowman809 Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Good guide, I wish I had it when I made REC. Although we did survive without quite of bit of this guide for a long time (charter, IRC, allies, active members). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anu Drake Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 I'd like to nominate this thread for a Sticky. I'd like to second this nomination. I don't think it works this way, but nonetheless, there it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
