:confused: I remember a couple years ago, during the summer even during the day servs would be packed.
Nowadays one can spend hours on the serv..and you can hear the sound of a needle hitting the floor.
No saber clashes. no chat-text-popup noice, nothing..
Mesa thinks not even the release of Virtue's new map would awaken it.
What do you think.....is the only servs alive the lame-infested Pub servs, or Clan servs..
Oh well, was fun while it lasted..:(

Since this post serv activety has risen with like 80%.
So, good going all, you've proved the point of this thread wrong, the JK:JA gaming of this community is anything but dead.

Still, you do have to time your joining of the servs when others are there, or gang up on Msn and drop by.
As many here could probably back me up on, I've never been one to complain about the Mod Dmg etc..,
Yes, its been strange at times, but it has NEVER been like WTF It's totally crap!, I'm never coming on the servs again.

I luw this game and no matter the funkyness of its combat code etc I wont stop playing any time soon.:D

Hehehehehe..
The Force will be with us....always..;):P

Of course, thats a given that all the Mod perks would be lost.
But then again, we all agreed to follow the rules, and the Serv is PW protected.
So if someone were to missbehave it wouldnt be too hard to dicipline them at the site.
Most of us are in it for the gameplay, kinda unfair assuming we would all go berserk just because admin things are gone.
Test us, try it for a week, I'm almost certain members who would join the serv would be appreciative of the basejka gameplay, and not see it as an oppertunity to freak.

There is always gonna be that group of people that get their kicks by ruining the fun for everyone else. And without an admin mod we would be powerless to remove said people.

There have been periods of non-adminship on the servers. The best word to descibe the result is "chaos".

Y'know, it IS kind of a real shame about the server activity. Maybe my timing just totally sucks, but for the past couple of months or so? Every time I check the server it's like a ghost Academy. Maybe it's because I'm way over on the other side of the planet, I dunno.

I really miss playin' with the crew on these ol' servers. It's a real shame I can never catch anybody online. Heh heh heh. XD

Ah well, all good things come to an end, yeah? Probably a sign that it's time to close up shop for me, ha ha ha! I'd call it a good run while it lasted though. Good times.

I heard only bad things about basejk1.2's gameplay tbh. Most of the changes implemented into that mod are totally useless anyways.

Besides, why change a mod for another mod? Apparently its close to impossible to get a mods gameplay act like basejka. I really doubt c1 altered the saber code, but that apparently doesnt have to mean the gameplay is going to be 100% like basejka. Same goes for all the other mods claiming to be basejka gameplay-wise...

About the mod thingy:

Can any admin test basejk 1.2. Maybe this mod would be good for JA?

This seems like a rather unrealistic idea to me. Theres nothing that can be done against the bad gameplay on our servers.
"Fixing" the mod apparently doesnt work as it should, and stripping the servers of the mods altogether would kinda hinder the jak/jat's from properly administrating the servers.

Game isnt dead but players who survived right now are those who truly love this game, not those who play everythin for few days and quit.
About servers i have to agree that they're nearly always empty...
Maybe the new map would bring some life to them ?

JK3 is everything but dead. It may seem so if you look only at JA servers, which are really inactive atm. Mostly the mod is keeping them inactive. But I can still play JK3 almost everyday, usually I only need to leave a few words on the JAA's IRC channel.
