The Real Reason behind LuckyMS's collapse. (And more...)

Something that is of importance. To former LuckyMS/PCMaple players.

Anyways...yeah. Zack neglected the server. Big time. I cannot fix the server for obvious reasons. He wanted to merge with KMaple at first. I DID NOT. If any of you know me from the really old days, back when PCMaple version 1 was still around (I was Aurion). Me and Kaspar hated each other. With a passion. We still do.

Secondly, about the merge with PCMaple. Not my idea. Zack wanted vBulletin for both sites, but I told him ONE installation. He told me to MERGE the forums. So I did. Xenon got angry. Me and him don't get along. Anyways, pretty much, I just followed Zack's orders. I feel bad now. Sure, I may be a jerk when it comes to running things...(I believe in a mixed style of administration. Meaning strict and not-so-strict.) Anyways...I believe that I should start over. I'm sorry about being a jerk. School work, and relationships. Oh. And Karma and Mario. Sorry I couldn't get back to you sooner. I've been terribly busy. With my job as a private skin designer. And Wii. So...to make it up to you, I could get around to creating KarmaMS a skin EXCLUSIVELY for you. For free. Normally, skins run about $700 to $1200. No decimal points there. I would love a basic concept of what colors you would like, icons, smilies, the whole nine yards. Of course, updates will be free...since it takes me around 5 minutes to update a style to the latest version of whatever.

Yet again, I am sorry people.

If you guys need to contact me, try my AIM at Chelf17.

Or my MSN, which I am almost always on, at Chelf13@msn.com

Remember. If you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all.

Thank you for reading this topic.

Hey Chelf! Welcome to our forums, perhaps you don't remember me, but welcome anyhow! Please enjoy your stay!

Can you give me your LuckyMS Screename? If so, that would be so helpful.

Washington was Panchoman and I was ToxicJob.

Ah. Thanks. How is KarmaMS?

I don't play on Private Servers anymore...too busy, and I uninstalled MS.

It's not doing that bad. You should reinstall MS if you ever get some free time.

Hey welcome back chelf!!And ya I agree you should reinstall ms if you get free tiem. And thanks for the offer to make Karmams a skin.

It'll be hard to give it to you guys. Free Forum Host=Fail.

I'm sorry, but it had to be said.

I agree but we're trying to be cheap.

Ah. I'd just use a Free Webhoster then. Loads out there. Just don't use 000webhost.

They fail. They remove sites for no reason.

Google is your friend for that.

Basically, look for a webhoster that offers bandwidth, FTP, and MySQL.

Bandwidth being...oh...about 20gb per month.

I have a paid hoster, and I get 15,000 GB of Bandwidth per month. $4.95.

Lunarpages if you interested. It might be $6.95 again.

EDIT: Here are their stats. $4.95 a month.

* 1 FREE Domain Name
* UNLIMITED Storage!
* UNLIMITED Data Transfer!
* Bonus Programs $775 Included
* 24/7 Award Winning Support!
* Unlimited Databases/Email/FTP Accounts

yeah I'll pay for that, no problem. Contact me on MSN. If Mario and stuff agrees.

Sorry for talking bad about you Chelf..

I think everyone is. He couldn't really do much past the forums. It was Zack that really didnt do much. Anyways I guess what's said is said and what's done is done. :/

It's okay guys. I wasn't the best either.

Either way, once Sparky buys the hosting, and if he does, I'll set up the vBulletin and add Mario and Karma to priority support, so they can MOD the forums. I'll teach them.

A few things I WOULD LIKE to do are:


vBTube--Our own little KarmaMS YouTube.

Custom Skin. Obviously. I still need ideas, people!

Server Status MOD. Meaning you don't have to leave the forums to find out the status of the server.

Newsletter. What better way to get ahold of everyone?

Much more, of course.

I'll leave it up to you guys.

Wow This is really nice of you chelf its good to hear from you again I'm sure everyone on the server will thank you for this genorus offer. also how is your life going?

It's going fairly well. So I can assume we should upgrade to paid hosting?

Since it comes with a free domain name, I'm thinking Karmams.com

Sound fair?

oh hey chelf im kyosin from pcmaple u made me a mod anyway i dont really think u were a jerk just a little power mad on the forums but i can see why and for the skin im thinking something like a red and black out line since thoughs are my fav colors

Well, I have the skin done. Sorta. I just need the images and to figure out how to add the drop-down CSS Login bar.

No one thanks me for buying the hosting? :-<

Thank you.

omg are you buying us hosting? Thank you very much (sorry i'm a bit slow sometimes )

Sparky is buying the hosting.

I'm providing vBulletin. I have a few ideas for donor benefits.

One being you get your own webmail address.

Example: yourname@karmams.com

Thank you both.

Oh. I'm working on a new front page for the site. How does this look?

http://clanarena.oxyhost.com/drupal/

It's actually a CMS, but this one is COMPLETELY integrated with vBulletin.

I like it. Any luck with the drop down login bar?
