True dedicated servers have a diesel backup system for these "freak-storms" But only something as serious as a tornado would affect them.
Noice, mark all whitetrash-tornadobate servers as undedicated.
anyhow what kind of bandwidth is needed for a stable server, with hopes of living off the tornado valley borders.

We can only offer diversity in game play, just the mere thought that every server is different makes us better than "The Beast" IMO
The Beast has more problems than a custom DSL driven server imho.
I have alwase belived, "You pay for what you get."
SOE pays for dedicated servers, customer support, and in return gets millions in software sales. :evil:
We pay for servers, do our own customer support, and in return get dedicated clients. If you think SOE has dedicated clients, your clearly mistaken, isnt that why we are here.
I do agree with a list that sports servers past the progress and into playable status, but ranking the servers based on what they run on is a huge mistake. When I start a server I dont expect to fork out the $400 a month for 10 dedicated players, and since my server is at the bottom of th list cause i dont pay the $400 a month what are the chances I can get it on the list. This is a building community, and ranking builds destroys the operator to operator support. :cry:

I belive it was Juran that thought employee ranking systems beased on progress within the workplace was the biggest mistake any corp. could make. He was the man who retooled the Japanise Enterprise in the 70s-80s. now we run on there archetecture.

Maybe showing the total hours of uptime for the day/week/month/since birth, after server name... People then can decide for themselves who the stars are. Like Juran would have wanted, let the clients choose who the emplyee of the moth are, cause i can out perform my fellows for my boss, but what customer whants to talk to somone who's breath smells like poo?
