Hmm... Interesting views..
Well, I'm not going to lie. I am not going to cash out and pay for a server. Also, my internet connection does suck. I realize that ping is the one thing that keeps ppl from their true potential. Me always hosting a game, it took me until I joined my friends server to realize how much it sucks on the other side.
But I'll find away, enough of that. I have a board (perhaps too overdone..) running and a chat room. I'll make a dedi and I won't join because (a) I can't join (b) It will probably cause lag and slow my pc (c) I'm not spending another 4 hours trying to fix this.
But so far, I've kept it on for 5 hours and no-one joined. Clearly there is a problem. If anyone would like to test it out, grab Version Changer and its called ~!nubs4life!~ Dedicated. I'll keep it running.
Now, finding clan members is a bit tricky. Took me an hour to find one member. Tried to talk to them on the halo chat, but (s)he didn't respond and by the time they realize I was tryign to ask for contact info, I lost the connection.
Anywho, that's pretty much sums up my experience...
Oh and thnx for all you guys' help, especially you Scott. I don't leave people unthanked.
EDIT:
...
A quick google revealed some strange results for my "original" clan name:
http://www.google.com/search?q=nubs4life&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-aI should probably change it..
