Title: Garry's Mod Server Reviews
Post by: Rictalspace on May 06, 2012, 01:19:17 PM
Basically I started this a few weeks ago, and review a Garry's Mod server every week or so. It's quite entertaining for myself actually, as I have to pay real attention to each server I play on. So far I'm up to three servers and intend to do many more. Check out my channel, see what you think.

Do you plan on doing a review on the HL2RP server that Catalyst has?

I've already done one of its GMR2, but yes in the future I will eventually.

Can't wait to see the HL2RP review. Also, you should review some Dark RP ones, I know they aren't the best roleplaying servers, but the still count.

I agree, as they are the majority of GMod servers. Most of my reviews will include DarkRP's, hopefully modified ones so there's no repetitiveness in my reviews.

You stutter a bit or can't explain properly, it's quite annoying when you don't have any attention taking content.
Original idea to review servers, never the less.

I can't wait to see one on HL2RP, you should be sure to mention the ratio of lack of admins regularly on it to number of minges that join it daily.

That's only due to a lack of confidence and should be erased in future videos as it builds.

This is pretty good. Try to review something other than RP :). And if any RP, do different ones (DarkRP, PERP, OCRP etc etc).

Also maybe try to compare two servers to each other. XRP with XRP and rate player base, features and such.

That's a nice idea Crap. I do plan to do all kinds of servers, as 2/3 of my reviewed servers aren't RP. But comparing sounds pretty good.

Dark RP servers I would give a 1/5 cause all the minges who just run and buy guns and go on a killing spree. Thats it. I found five servers with an admin who said it was legal to go on a killing spree. >.<. Anyway loving the posts dude, keep it up.

Unfortunately that's a matter of opinion and what you're looking for.
Serious RP'ers hate Dark RP
Un-serious RP'er like Dark RP.
Some people just like to have fun.
I'll review every gamemode, regardless of what people think of it.
Sure, there are some DarkRP servers (Like the one I'm reviewing this week) that aren't too great, but some do put the effort in and can be quite fun.
But thanks for the feedback.

I think it would be far more efficient to review the actual gamemode and not the server.
Why? Because it can prevent from giving the server a bad reputation, and you seem to be only talking about the gamemode side of it, but you seem to be titling it as a server.

So if you are to review the server, you actually have to have a bit of gameplay footage then you see how their admin structure works, how they run the community and so forth.

So, are you actually reviewing the server or the gamemode...? It seems like you're doing both, it is quite misleading.

Sometimes I explain the gamemode for those who haven't played it, if I haven't explained it before..
And sometimes I explain the gamemode if it's been modified, like my latest video.
Then I go on to talk about the community.
