Are there any features users would like to suggest so that I can implement them before updating the bot to the latest version?

Your hostmask requirement drives me sad, because after you take the default one you have to re-request your old.

[quote="Kennon Conrad"]Dear LawCounsels,
To prove your compressor works, I suggest you try it on your posts and then post only the result.

We all know an ideal lossy compressor would output 0 bytes for your posts, so see if you can beat that.

Have a nice day.[/quote]

I'll be addressing this in a future update.

We're also looking for a few server administrators to maintain BE. If you think you're qualified, please PM either here or on IRC and throw me a couple of reasons why you think we should make you an administrator.

Edit: Had to shut down all of the servers and delete all of the logs to implement a new revision of the bot. Sorry for the inconvenience! If you find any bugs, please report them to me at #bestever.

In what way? It's pretty much greatest example of how to start a server on BE? If you're wondering about other flags not covered by the site, you can fix it via rcon.

It Is Done VIA IRC. You Should Check The Website For The Commands To Host With IRC. You Should Then Join The #bestever Channel And Use Your Host Commands. That Is The Best Suggestion I Have For You Right Now. If You Do Not Use IRC Then Ask Someone Who Knows Around Here To Help You With Those Basics.

You Are Welcome.

There's a conflict with the wads, I think skulltag_actors.pk3 skulltag_data.pk3 is not needed...

look at the logs, at the end, and put what it says

also a port number isn't exactly sensitive information

I believe you need to use mapwad=chillax-v9.7.1.wad for it to work.

Neat service, I've been meaning to give it a try now that I've finally gotten around to IRC registration

From the website
Possible gamemodes are: coop, ctf, dm, duel, invasion, lms, skulltag, survival, tdm and tlms.
Is there, or will there be, terminator - (t)possession - teamgame - domination support?

You can always change the gamemode after the server starts.

Yes that is coming with the new BestBot++

If you could PM me the cvars I will add it to the bot before the release which is coming very soon (hopefully within a few days)

I kinda agree on Tiger.. Nobody reads the Wiki, and he feels like shutting it down..

The website is outdated iirc. These gamemodes should be available, and if they are not, can always be enabled through RCON.
