That kind of sucks. We have no computer limit, but we have a 3072Mb/24hr limit for off-campus traffic. It gets pushed when I run a dedicated server.

jeese a T3 and my school wont even let us take full advantage of it. grrrr. we cant even play xbox online.

opps almost advertised my clan, had to qucikly edit it out.

and FullThrottle how much every 6 months would u say ur clan brings in with client donations?, cuz that was the main source of income i was planning on

and what is this error that seems to keep coming up with my server "verifying STEAM UserID Ticket(server was
unable to contact the authentication server, 31)."?

[scout121]

ummm is any1 elses source ds messed up? it dosnt have any confgs like ff options and what not, and the server.cfg i made dosnt work. Can any1 help?

[FullThrottle]

It all depends how much we bring in. I don't ask for donations but there is a link on our site to donate. So by not asking them then there is no preasure on the regulars to have to donate to us. I can usually bring in 100 bucks a month. But then some months I get nothing. If you bug them almost every day with reminders you can bring in what you need every month but I personally find that rude so I don't ask.

Now we are still a new clan only a few months old with this one so we are growing our regulars. A previous clan I started is making a couple hundred a month in donations.

For server.cfg you must have it in the cfg directory. Mine works just fine that way. All your setup files like banned_user.cfg,banned.cfg,server.cfg must be in cfg. Even though I don't think ban works yet or atleast it doesn't for me.

just change the port the servers running on to 27016 and it should be fine (<--No Clue)

[scout121]

$800 for what?

$130/month for the server rental (nuclearfallout.net)

where's the other $670 going?

If you want to actually host a game that is worthy of joining, rent a server or run a dedicated box. All of this "playing on the same PC as i'm hosting" is simply idiotic.

If you're starting a clan, make the requirment something along the lines of "You have to donate monthly to the server rental". The "clan" that i'm running (which is more of a community than anything), everyone pays atleast $20/month.

Depends on what you're using it for. I can host an 18-man server for university connections without a hitch. If you're running a commerical service on your home PC, however, you have problems.

I think that makes members a lot more scarce. The fact that your clan is more of a community is what differs from a standard clan. People don't want to pay to play in CAL. They just want to play, and there are plenty of places to do it for free.

You would be surprised, I would have people join and play on my 6 man testing servers when I ran it off my comp
That was HL1 although
