January Updates - The host, Need Beta Testers, Patch 3.0 release, Forum update

[VK.Angel.OfDeath]

Note: A rather long update. I recommend that you check at least the headlines to check if any news is relevant to you.

The host
I've purchased a host at VRocker and I've had a few problems getting it up, but now it seems like I have soon managed to handle it. There is still one problem though that I got one solution for that isn't that good, I am trying to find a better one for now. The host is called VKs test server or something it doesn't have the scripts yet.

I will let you guys know when it's done.

Need beta testers
The minigame system is best tested if I got a few players with me. I can no longer use two players in windows 10 the computer lags too much and I don't want to affect the server.

Requirements to help me test:
- You play a lot on the server and is available to play.
- You're a long time member or an admin.
- You must AFK on the main server while you play on the 3.0 beta server, so we don't lose players on the original host.
- You must be ready to wait a little while I script or test.
- You do exactly as I tell you without questions when we are testing.
- If I tell you to not talk or to stand completely still you can't move a muscle or talk.

Rewards for helping me:
- If you are a normal player I will give you some cash.
- If you are an admin you will get the satisfaction of helping the server & Angel will probably see you as a more useful & helpful admin, which is good for your future in the staff.

Patch 3.0 release
The thing about patch 3.0 is that I just keep adding more things and I don't want it to be a disappointment or a small patch. I want it to be really big, that's why I am working my ass off to release as much content for patch 3.0 as possible. I will go back to school somewhere in january so I will release everything I got for 3.0 before then.

The rest of the stuff that I don't add like probably some minigame types and other shit will be added in patch 3.1 & perhaps 3.2.

Can you guys please rank what you think is most important from these 2 things?:
- Make many different types of minigames at the start like (Car chase, different DM minigames)
- Make more minigames of the types I already have made (Duels, races, shooting range, stunts, Death arena, Death race)


I hope you will be happy with the patch, I am not just adding minigames I am changing a few things as well.

Forum update
I made a couple more ranks like: Informant, announcer and event staff.

Informant & Announcer: Moderates the information/news section and is in charge of probably posting a monthly or bi-monthly topic. If you're interested in moderating this section and you are level 6, I will consider it. But I think Thunder can handle it for now with the help of Rainbow.

Event staff: Do you want to actively help me with events and moderate the event sections then tell me. But you have to be active in helping and you have to do your job without reminders from me. Normal members are also welcome to sign up for it. Here it is:

Activity Check
Rainbow Dash will perform an Activity check in january kicking everyone from the staff that doesn't reply to his PM after a certain amount of time. If you're on a LOA with no date when you will return and you don't reply to the PM you can get kicked as well.

Events
The property building contest: https://vkserver.forumotion.com/t2122-property-building-contest sign up if you got a big property, I will check out every property though. I will do the judging myself since I don't have time to cooperate with any other admin.

2016 event: Start this summer I posted a couple of topics about it. Please register for it and read the information here: https://vkserver.forumotion.com/t2120-2016-event-information-registration

Treasure hunting event: Started yesterday, I believe 1-5th place has already been claimed, but you can still compete.
