I would also love some new maps and would love to get rid of some of the bad ones (kind of ditto to what everyone else says)

I agree that a larger donation amount would help...even if it's $3 per month or something.

I also think having more admins would be awesome. Someone like Enforcer and about 5 others like him that play a lot would be great. Sometimes people get on and are very disrespectful and trolling people, or not playing at all...and nothing can be done but put up with them. No admin to boot them.

Stats would be a great feature as well.

I do love the SourceOP group though, and Love playing with them all.

Look forward to more games guys !

Bump.

Mod privs to Enforcer would help but also additional maps like Mach4, swiftwater, HAARP, Vector, Obscure & nightfall would be good additions. Other popular maps are listed http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Custom_maps

Some ideas:

Vote system for maps. Some servers do this near the end of a round and allow you to pick from 3 or 4, that's pretty quick and smooth.
Add a new admin or two who actually play and are available. Sometimes things break, sometimes people suck. This would help quite a bit.
Add new maps. There are a few maps, even official maps, that "every" server has. These would be great.
DeGroot Keep is awesome, but some people cannot stand it; but they waited forever to get in! How about a queue system or something, I don't even know if that exists.
If you've been on and playing for, let's say, 4 hours, you could probably take a break. I have seen days while trying to get in (with the random lottery auto retry) that some of these guys have been on here like 4 hours. That's crazy! Take a break! (another comment, not really an idea)

Conclusion:

I like the ideas posted before me. I like my ideas. I like you guys, too! Let's see where this can take us.

again, not an admin nomination thread.

any custom map suggestions should keep in mind that this is a 32 man server we are talking about, so maps like mach 4 and haarp (which has a mess of bugs) aren't realistic.

We're just throwing his name out as a suggestion for admin because one of the points we bring up is a desire for an additional admin or two to keep things running smoothly, and suggesting someone we all think would be good would give current admins a good reason to consider him. If you guys do decide adding another admin is something that should be done that is.

Since I don't have much experience playing on custom maps, I'd have to research them based mostly on other people's reviews. I'll look into it this weekend and try a few to see if I can put together a good list.

I'm a somewhat old reg on PH. Commonly referred to as, "Shut the fuck up, bitch."

While the rotation has been updated from what it was (I fucking hope I never have to see Cyberpunk again. Not even as an April Fools.), it's still in desperate need of a real tune-up. We have no way to add or remove maps, and we desperately need to. Some maps kill the server, and they just need to be taken off. There are also updated maps, maps made by players, that we can't play.

Map votes are utterly useless. And it's just a tug and pull to try not to skip the decent maps and losing players, even more than half of the server, because someone thought it was funny to skip. Little things like that just absolutely kill the server. And they don't rejoin.

With Dopp as our only admin, while he's great, we don't really have enough people to keep an eye on the server at all times. Dopp is the admin we need, not the admin we deserve. Something like that. Me and other regs can only yell at people for so long.

Having the basic rules on the first screen you see when you join would be absolutely fantastic. People can't fucking understand that cheating in hide and seek is the most obvious and stupidest thing you can do in a video game. It's fucking hide and seek.

Stats. Prophunt is filled with people who love their kill to death ratios, and their credits, myself included. A stats page would be popular for the regs who get off on looking good in the game.

And I never want the hats showing on props fixed. Ever. Running around as a box with pink shoes is the best fucking thing, and it would be the biggest shame in the world if it was fixed. New people just don't know how great it is yet.

I'm sure there are other things, but I can't think of anything at the moment. Basically we need a make over, because we look like the dirty hooker that you're tired of but you can't afford a nicer looking one, so you keep coming back.

Thanks for everything. I hope things get sorted easily.


Donator perks. I'd be honest and say if there were perks other than a slot reservation, I'd donate. Like coloured text. I just want pink text. But, regardless.
I'd look at other donator perks from communities, besides "pay to win", and "pay for admin" shit. A donator menu, not quite admin caliber, but maybe a simple voteban if an admin isn't around. Still a community vote. End of round effects. End of round invulnerability. Coloured text. Wait, I said that.

At the end of the day, a strong community will bring in new players, and will keep them coming back. People come to prophunt sometimes just for the people that play, because we love joking around and having fun. And I'm sure there's a lot of prophunt regs commenting on the thread, but we do love our server, and we do want to see it taken care of.

Game,
These can be sprinkled in the rotation. But I'm sure we don't need all of these. Maybe change the #2 server to these maps so people can play them and decide via a voting system like TopNotch does on their servers.

Server is poop now, fix it pls and i might actually play tf2 despite the horrid optimization and balance...

EDIT: AND TAKE OUT FUCKING RANDOM CRITS HOLY BALLS WHO ACTUALLY LIKES THAT BULLSHIT, THE ONLY POSSIBLE REASON ITSIN THE GAME IS TO MAKE NOOBS FEEL GOOD ABOUT GETTING KILLS.:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

Agreed. My main grievance is junction. Junction = six engies win for red, happens 99% of the time. Plus the rotation has hydro turbine and junction all next to eachother, which ensures the death of the server.
Long live sourceop.

I'm not the most vocal member of the community, but I thought of making an exception in this case.

A few days ago I was considering joining a bit later in the evening, and was shocked to find the server completely empty before 11 PM EST. Looking at the server history for that day, it had been active for less than two hours. It's a tribute to the community that we can fill this server at all, when often it has to be done from scratch within a specific window, but obviously that can only last for so long.

I would echo all the suggestions made in this thread, but to add a few of my own, is it at all possible to make a completely random map rotation? Perhaps by the ending of a map, we can instead have an option to vote from five random selections from a larger list. And if the results are poor, a system that lets a map be nominated would also be welcomed. And while I'm on the subject of voting, moving the voting from 1 and 2 to perhaps anywhere from 6-0 would be great. I'm sure I'm not the only who's been screwed over by a sudden map vote.

Being allowed to vote for a scramble might help, particularly when one team completely drubs the other on payload maps or multistage maps. If the stronger team is on offense, the next few phases feel like a slog for the defending team.

I don't know enough about custom maps and how they work on 32 player servers to make a suggestion, but I do think Junction should be removed. Hydro and Turbine can feel like a chore, but they have their place I think. I've never looked forward to playing a game on junction though. Aside from the engineer issue, it's just too small a map for 32 players.

That's about all I can think of at the moment. I'm hoping for the best.
