Super down for a rerun. I think we all have some old connections to plan something ahead of time, on an updated game, or even outdated, for all of us to do an event on. I would look forward to that very much

 Hey,
I have a suggestion to make regarding the two current servers. I see that the Office server is full a lot of the time, while the Dust2 server just sits there empty all day.
I have seen some servers redirect you to another server if it is full. If you don't understand -- I joined an office server, I do not remember the name, so I'll call it 24/7 Office Fun! #1. It was full at 24/24 when i joined, so it redirected me to 24/7 Office Fun! #2 which was less populated.
Now take this idea, and put it to your Office/Dust2 servers. The Dust2 server will get populated, and it wont be stealing regulars because the other server is already full!

 Most people will leave D2 if they get redirected. Think about it, if you want to play Office, odds are you will not stick around to play Dust2.

 See this thread: -[link]-

Search for 'cl_restrict_server_commands'

EDIT: I'll just paste the relevant comments on redirection here:

Mani Redirection - Sadly, the cl_restrict_server_commands cvar put in last November defaults to prevent admins/server-plugins from running commands such as "connect" to force a players cs:s client to connect to a different server when one is full. This makes launching new servers, or even migrating from one host to another (when changing server hosts or GSP's, as FTC has had to do three times!) because you can't take a busy, full server like krem's DA server, and redirect clients to a new server that is just starting out like FTC. I wish I could return the favor for any new servers starting out, but as I mentioned, Valve made this irrelevant by defaulting cl_restrict_server_commands to pevent the connect command from working when issued by Mani.

is there any way to turn cl_restrict_server_commands to 0?

 eh i think its worth a thought. it sounds like a good idea and worth a try. if anything, it woudl help D2 to get more populated than it is now. people COULD wait on the office server by playing on d2... and people don't wanna play office. they wanna play ft! lol xD

 i'm against the redirect. i want to play on the server i'm connecting to. when FTC used to redirect me to FTC2 i would get pissed because i would have to cancel the 2nd connection every time. if i got redirected to a completely different map, there is about zero chance of me staying on that server.

sounds like we can't do it anyway.

 well there's no point talking about whether we should redirect or not if we can't do it in the first place is there?
