Having played on the IBIS CS:S Pub server for about 5 years, it's depressing to see it devoid of players just about every night.

I know CS:Go being released probably had a good deal to do with that, but I'd hate to see this server shut down from inactivity. For years, it was full almost all the time, hard to get a spot without having a reserve slot. Now, it's hard to find a time when there's more than just one other player on it.

I can easily say that out of any multiplayer game I've ever played -- this server is by far the one I've spent the longest time on.

Don't let it die.

I was on for a few hours today while steam friends was down. We had a few people in there after I played against bots for the first few min. Never got above 3v3 though

Yeah WCS has been slow recentley too, but that seems to happen around every new big title release and then it comes back. I'm sure school and/or work is hurting it too. It still gets up there, but just not all the time. Overall nothing to worry bout yet.

wait it out. this shit happens all the time...
whether it;s a new game, some hollidays, school start, school ending + summer beginning etc...
even wcs is a bit slow, but YOU make ur own crowd.

instead of just sitting outside, get in the server, play a bit with the bots for a good 10 mins (heck u might even improve ur aim and kdr against those morons) .
People will look at the server later , see "mmm 3 ppl, i guess they could use a 4th guy to balance"
then someone goes " ooh, 4 ppl, i wonder who's on"
etc etc and then u have " fuck yeah, 8 ppl on, lets rock this shit!"
annnndd " goddamnit, i cant join with my reserve slot..."


just wait it out. talk to friends and join the server AT THE SAME TIME, specially at late hours, bcos that boosts the attractiveness of a server when more ppl are on...

It goes dead every September. All the kiddies go back to school and don't/can't play till the wee hours of the morning.

What friends? LOL

What about a scrim group, or group night(s), or some kinda scheduled activities. I suggested a FRI fun night that was met w/ mixed reviews, due to serious players on server. Maybe scrim would appeal to them.

how about we turn pub into an open hacking server???
That's pretty much all that it is these days...

I don't bother going there anymore just because of how paranoid I get at the number of hackers uncaught there, just lurking in the top ranks... -.-
(when the #1 ranked player in pub for a long time gets banned by you for obvious hacks? yeah... u lose hope)

Maybe what we do need is for these hackers to get cleaned out so we can have people actually play on there again.

Not but seriously, brett and i drop in pub once in a while and get ppl banned, or watched at least. But i guess it's just not as fun after u've played wcs

The solution to keep it from dying is to feed the server.
Tell all the boys and girls of css to come join.
If not, then this server will end up dead as usual.
Hm, don't see any other solution here besides the community working together.
