Ventrilo Hosting; Are you game??

Hey guys, this is MR.psykology from the Military Response crew. You may know that I used to be in IMF, but left to join MR. Anyways I pay for the centrally located ventrilo hosting that is used now by 3 clans -- Military Response, Direct Response, and IMF (Insane Mother F*****s). It's been cool so far having multiple teams sharing the same voice server, because it is that much more likely that there will be more guys you know in the community and that you can hang around and play with.

The way we have it set up, there is a multi-clan lobby which is available to the public, and then each clan has their own clan channel (and subchannels such as password protected members only areas). This allows for clans to ban or kick anyone they want from their clan channels, while still having public areas to hang out and play with players from other clans. Even though there are 3 clans sharing the ventrilo server, we rarely have more than 20 guys in the ventrilo server at a time given that I pay for 50-man hosting (and i'll increase to 100 man hosting if i get the mood).

I would be happy to provide free hosting for FAS (the same support I'm already providing for MR, DR, and IMF) and set up your leaders with clan channel administrator access, which would allow them to create and delete subchannels, and kick/ban users from your channel. This would allow you guys to have as much privacy as you want (for instance by going into your pw protected channels) and still be on the same voice server as MR, DR, and IMF for easy access to conversation and gameplay with other players.

I know you probably are already using an effective voice comm solution, but I really like the sense of community that our voice server is providing, and we're looking to add more good warriors to the mix. And after all, it's free! Please send me an email if you're interested. Either way, Good luck to you all and happy fragging!

This is a very kind gesture and I greatly appreciate this offer. We already have a 50 slot TS server as well as a 15 or 20 slot backup I believe. This is all paid and worked on by Wolflnx so you will need to personally talk to him about this. I have never used Ventrilo nor do I think many =Fas= members have either. Perhaps if we don't take up your offer for our own channels, we would be happy to join you in the public chat sometime. Could you please provide info on how we can locate the server

Thanks,
Lazer

Cool, you are more than welcome to stop by and say hi. Whatever works for you guys is fine. Since I'm already paying for the hosting it's just a matter of whether or not you guys want me to make you a clan controlled channel or not so you can make it your default voice server. Both MR and IMF both have backup TS servers in case ventrilo goes down, as well, which is fine for them because the ventrilo is costing $0 extra.

You are always welcome to come on and say hi regardless of whether or not you make it your home. I know a couple of clans that have switched from TS to Ventrilo recently, and while it's a new thing to learn I think most people end up liking it better in the end. You'll want to go to www.ventrilo.com and make sure you have the most recent ventrilo client installed.

Wolflnx, if you have any questions about this or want to chat about it in more detail I'd be happy to provide more info. Feel free to email me at teague.ashburn@mac.com.

Sure, no prob. The server is public but the clans decide how to conduct business within their own channels.

The server address is surge6.nrgservers.net port 3544. For best results, make sure that you are running the most current client (on mac, prototype 15) which can be downloaded at www.ventrilo.com. HOOAH!
