Resigning from [wH] - Requesting name change to XpanD

[XpanD]

Hi all... It's been a while since I last posted here.


I'm requesting a name change, as I'm hereby resigning from wH. I'd like to request a name change from "[wH]XpanD" to just... "XpanD".

This is because, over the last few months, I've lost much interest in wH. The server just doesn't feel the same as it used to. Also, whenever I play UT these days, it's usually on a SLV, MH or BT server. There are more reasons, but I wont list them all here too.

Now... I probably won't go away either. Just letting everyone know I'm resigning from wH. I'll still hang around on the server and on this site from time to time, but not as frequent as it used to be. Also, I'll probably make some more maps for wH. That is, if my old wH maps make it back to the server too, because I kinda miss them.

aww boo lol... [wH] isn't a clan or something that you "resign" from lol... just a community tag that some wear to show their appreciation for the server.

However, your presence will be missed! Feel free to stop by whenever you like, once you get bored of MH and BT (which ultimately happens without fail lol)

Bummer Xpand. Always liked your maps but I guess after the last outage, the backups didn't contain the maps added late in 2006 thru 2007. I'm sure Sully would put them back. Have fun and don't be a stranger. FYI, I did see a question directed towards you but I don't remember which thread it was in. It was within the last couple of weeks. Seeya around.

That sucks Xpand. I agree with you. The speed is faster, the bots are insane, and the maps are shorter. Just seems diff. What do you think is making it less fun?

[Alexei]

I like the speed and increased jump height

It's the way it was on the old server as well... helps balance some of the spamminess of the weapons lol

Was chatting with a few regulars yesterday and they all seemed to agree with what I outlined before as resulting in less fun. Maybe MSuLL could chime in on this or someone could run a poll to see if we can make some positive changes.

If you feel that something needs to be changed about the server, START A NEW THREAD! Don't spam someone else's thread.

[Moxley]

WTF?! SPAM? I was asking Xpand why he "quit" .. and YOU chimed in how much YOU like jumping high!! ... I was answering YOU because YOU answered a question I had for xpand!

You belittled him for resigning from a "community" (with a couple of lol's thrown in), then belittled the servers he plays on now without even trying to find out what might be causing him to leave. Then... you bitch at me? You had a long time player state he was leaving because the server wasn't the same and you say that a discussion of why it's different doesn't belong in the thread??!!!!

[XpanD]

lol, Mox and Alexei at it again.

Anyways... I wonder why I didn't get an automated email notifying me of replies to this topic before.

I hope the server can be restored to the way it was, with some new things added into the mix, so that it can in a way become better than how it used to be. Because, as far as I know, right now it's worse... My reasons for quiting lie in things like some old players almost never coming online anymore (afaIk), the server's settings feeling different, and some more stuff I can't really elaborate on.

PS. Right now I'm checking out some of the maps I have on my current computer. I don't have all maps here, but I do have a good few. So just wait, I might have some maps ready today.

What else needs to be changed? We're running pretty much the same settings we always have... at this point anyway.
