matt i think you should set up how much you need in donations and when achieved as not being funny i see 96 quid donated already and its like 30 a month tops .

it might seem petty but you could rake in hundreds a month for basically a 30 quid outlay which is a bit meh. especially if a lot of ocuk donate.

not saying your doing it underhand style but there are other servers on ocuk aswell and your not official . hope you understand. just trying to keep a level playing field ;)

maybe think about doing other stuff to keep the value of donations

You are coming across as petty. If people are donating in droves then matt must be doing something right with his server. Maybe the 'offical' servers need to do better.

It costs about £40 for the server and website/forum.

I made that pretty clear on the website. We have a monthly target which is £40 and below that is how much received.

Any extra that is made will simply go on towards next months cost. I don't know how many of these people will contribute anything the following month.

I'm selling an ocuk user some ram for £35 and he paid £40 but said i could keep £5 for server costs. So you can minus £35 off of the current total. Although i believe Kun has donated £10 but that hasnt shown up yet so maybe plus another £10 back on.

I'm not in this for the profit, i thought you'd know that by now DG. ;)

I've been overwhelmed by the generosity of everyone so far though, so thank you very much.

Always worth getting on teamspeak too, even if its just to listen to us lot giving out positions away

"That jet is coming our way, lasering it now!"
"Ah, it's turning back"
"Oh, here it comes again!"
"Nah, it turned back again"

I wasn't listening in to you two trying to SOFLAM-Javelin me, honest! :D

This. Some of the donations came in £10-15 chunks, which are far less likely to be a regular monthly thing than the many £1 donations.
 
Couple of weird things happened to me last night. Firstly, being Javelined in a jet with about half a second of lock warning (no attempting lock buzzer) and no incoming missile buzzer, although it could have been SOFLAM I guess. Secondly a tank on Seine Crossing with 5 engineers huddled behind it repairing. Now that works well until they drive past my C4 laden Transit van parked on the side of the road. :D
 
Jesus christ aren't there any servers which are adminned regularly? I'm tired of people glitching on metro to get under/above the map or people using MAV to get on top of buildings and snipe.
 
Had some terrible rounds lastnight where nothing seemed to go right. Probably played for too long :P

that can happen, my two best days came after i returned from a 10 day break in America, you can over play this and it end up trying to hard or playing semi conscious. good to take a break from anything even if its fun :)
 
I'm trying to understand the way skill level is calculated. I was at 284 skill level the other day, went on a server and got 29-4 in around 10-15 minutes and it went up to 625, i was like 'wtf?'.
 
Saturday night was fun when I was playing with a 30kb/s internet connection with a 900ms ping. Was quite surprised it even let me on.

As it was, I spawned but I couldn't move or fire any weapon just trun on the spot.

Equally though, even people running up to me at point blank, I couldn't die either. People were saying wtf etc. Even a tank tried to take me out and failed.

Biggest laugh was my knife still worked and if anybody got close enough I could knife them (3 kills :D) plus I was right next to a flag so kept getting flag points and scored almost 3000 points.

That caused even more outrage as people were saying "how the hell did you even knife me as you didn't even move?"

Decided to leave before I got accused of hacking plus it was getting boring and people were learning to run past me and ignore me. lol

It seems it's based on how well you do and against what level players. In theory if you are a level 50 colonel and went and played on a server full of level 1 noobs, your skill level could go down despite scoring really well.

However, get a good score against higher level opponents and it can rocket.

mine is 421, i have no idea if that is good or not lol
 
Really enjoying running people over at the moment..

Driving a jeep towards someone, watching them panic and start firing just as I jump out and let the jeep roll over them.. If they some how avoid it, I gun them down afterwards hehe

I love doing that, even fluked a knife kill by jumping out and ending up behind a guy.

hey how do you change your avatar in battlefeed, do you need to sign up with that external link?

Yep, you can just upload an avatar to that external site. I'm assuming it's so the BL server isn't filled with peoples avatars.
 
Let me clarify what happened. A guy with a similar name to Owen was base raping and as i was busy i asked Kun to kick him however he misheard and kicked owen by mistake. Apologies all round.

I cant remember the guys name now, something like voren and i guess it sounded like owen when i said it. :p

Owen has always behaved impeccably

O you, you make me blush :p
