So, I/we/I just wanted to give everyone an insight into what's been going on since there hasn't been any announcements or really talk about it.
First off, the development of the servers/forums.
As of now, we have finished Rapsheet to be "functional" as in, it pulls from our systems and is ready to be added to our servers.
Rapsheet is basically a statistics gathering system that tracks your playtime, offenses, bans, kicks, and even notes about you.
This will potentially be public, to an extent. This means that you'll be able to maybe either see your own stats(playtime, offenses, bans) and maybe even others, we'll see.
Next up we've got our shoutbox linkage. This will be done VERY soon and you can stay within the comfort of your little Discord application to chat away with forum members.
Along with shoutbox linkage will be 8-Bit Bot.
8-Bit bot is (hopefully) going to be a full-out BAWS.
Meaning, It's going to track all your history, all commands run by staff, and with that means public mod logs!
8-Bit bot will log certain information in a publically accessible channel called #mod-logs.
This information will include user joins/leaves, kicks, bans, mutes, etc.
Once that is finished the Discord should be ready, then we can potentially start thinking of donator ranks.
Adding the roles to Discord, adding groups the forums with fancy titles and banners and what not.
Then we've got the actual servers itself.
For starters, we'll probably be starting out with either one, or two servers.
(For hopefully obvious reasons)
Once we gain traction, we'll stick with those servers for the time being and upgrade accordingly to incorporate more servers based on player activity and what the community wants.
The first server will be TTT, it'll be a basic, not a whole crap load of content probably. (Your thoughts are welcome on if you want vanilla or a modded server at first, though)
We'll introduce some custom content at first, and grow upon that.
Pointshop will be pretty basic, we're open to launch models and will potentially even make these exclusive to let's say the first month of the launch and what not so you can flash about to new players that you were here from the beginning because, well, you're awesome.
From there, we'd like to get into other gamemodes if that's something everyone wants.
May it be Deathrun, Prophunt, or.. if it's super requested DarkRP (Which.. that's a lot of work )
So that's where we're at in this point in time.
Just finishing up the core of the servers/forums and working to brainstorm and implement custom tools and content that would be useful and fun to have.
Please PLEASE don't be afraid to make a suggestion in the subforum with custom content you might want, donator exclusives, forum additions, etc.
