Reserve Slot

[TheOneandOnly]

Thanks Zero.

Just tried logging in a few times with the server at 20/21. Kept getting dropped for slot reservation. I tried it over about a 5 min period just to make sure there wasn't anyone else attempting to get in at the same time. Suggestion?

I think what jackie is trying to say , its that a 20\21 is a full server. The last slot it's for source Tv. U were probably trying to connect to a full server, which brings us to the first post i made above...Zero once compared the slot reservation to being a fireman.Naturally if there's a fire in the server, the fireman can tell someone to gtfo and replace them.Now of there was a big fat fuck stuck in a door ( too many reservations or connections trying to fit in), then it wouldnt matter if u were a fireman or not, the priority would be to trying and remove that fat fuck from the doorway.Ps: i think zero was drink that day, but still works by me!

no...no.

the comparison was to a club. if you have reserved slot, it's like being a vip. the bouncer will kick someone out to let you enter. however, sometimes a fat guy gets stuck in the doorway, and you need to wait for the firemen to cut his fatass out. the fatass is someone with a slow connection, so they take up the spot while connecting, preventing you from getting in.

Alright I have to be honest this reserve slot thing doesn't seem to be legit. I sat for about 8-10 min repetitively trying to log in to the WCS server at 20/21. Every time getting "Dropped due to slot reservation". Finally the server dropped down to 19/21 and I was able to get in. And the map hadn't changed mind you. As soon as I got in I asked how many people had a slot reservation. While I only got about 2 people to reply yes, about 6 people replied no. So that raises the question of why couldn't I get in with several, and more then likely over 70% of the server, was being used by none slot reserved players? The more likely thing here to me, would be that there is no slot reservation or that maybe it isn't setup right. My pay pal says transaction complete and I have setup my account as instructed on this site. I have been a huge fan of the IBIS WCS for several months and have gotten to know some of the veteran players very well. I truly appreciate the work Zero has put in, and for the most part have been very happy playing on IBIS servers. However this slot reservation thing really seems to be a scam and/or not in proper working order. I could see once in a blue moon actually not being able to get in to the server at 20/21, but not every time over the last several days. If there is a way to resolve this I'd appreciate it. If not could you please let me know how to cancel this subscription. Thanks for you time.

you cancel subscriptions that you've made with paypal, via your own paypal. has nothing 2 do with us.

Admins have reserved slot too. So if one of them are stuck in connection your waiting also. The res slot works fine. Ask other players. Works great for me - the times asshats get stuck in connection. I think your getting a bit of bad luck buddy.

I had one for the longest time until i got admin for a few months and i have not renewed it, trust me there is a difference with having one.

agreed.
Admins' slot reserv is way stronger (in the event that someone was hacking and needed to join asap.)

i agree with steamr, u probably have had bad luck...
did u check in ur subscription feed to see if it's active?...
