Great to see a new counter strike server!

wolfric

Vent room looks empty. I was going to go to the meet up tonight but when i got the reminder i had an hour to go and i'd just ordered takeaway.

I think the address on dit http://www.socs.dit.ie/socs_list.php?campus=all is broken all i get is this which is really odd.

Sir Molle

what version of ventrilo is it?

Irishtrekkie

Latest version of ventrilo will do.

i fixed the address on the socs page
And yes well spotted wolfric i think we have been given the domain gamesoc.socs.dit.ie this year , as we wanted to drop the kst but for the moment the gamesoc website is still

http://gamesockst.socs.dit.ie

and yea the vent will have people on it most of the time. we might
pick a fixed date for meet up online.

Also at the inter soc meetings we talked to our friends in IT Tallaght , they have servers too , so we might post their adress and we can jump on and play with them sometimes.

regi

are your servers in Ireland or are they in the UK?

Irishtrekkie

Our Servers are provided by our new sponsors gamingdeluxe.co.uk

so the servers are based in UK , if you have a decent boardband connect you should be getting 20-35 ping on them

its a good idea having an English server as both Irish and UK players get decent ping on them so we can get alot of people on the servers , while on Irish servers only Irish players will get a good rate.

I'm sure the site looks lovely but there's a giant ad covering the entire thing for me (firefox & safari).

yeah we're looking into why that massive ad is appearing, only happened in the past couple days lmao.

Was gonna go to the meet too, but it being on a Saturday was pretty gay.

Irishtrekkie

no worries about the meeting yesterday bad day, with the footy and all , the AGM is this thursday , try make that , its mainly just a social but we need to know what members want us to do this year, i think there will be a fifa 10 , and halo odst (overnight) event coming up soon

10 seconds looking at the code and you can see it's ad supported content from your gracious designers at webst4rs.

Surely one of you involved do Computer Science or similar course and can make a nice, clean design that doesn't have ads sprouting up at random?

C'mon lads...

Irishtrekkie

yes i see the layer-ads.de code snippet i will remove it when i am on my own computer , to be honest, none of us had time to design a website, it took about 40-mins to an hour to download, setup , and skin the site.

Sir Molle

the website needs more frames

I don't like the 'look' of the website.
Less is more.

Main thing for me is the bloody ad that appears on the screen
