| Calvin from Lick wrote in the entry: "I am [LiCk]calvin and ran/began the JK2 server that was a beginning (afaik) of a whole shit ton of stuff for the JK2 community (of which I wasn't a part of for long). Here is my memory of that time.
| |
| Basically I was a FPS gamer primarily who generally tried out new games for fun. I had access to a server on a decent connection that would support quite a few players etc. From the beginning it was a server the [LiCk] clan would goof on so from the beginning we would be standing around talking and not necessarily playing like a normal mp game. I don't remember if Shroom and I formally worked together on the "don't attack when saber not up" because I remember having those binds made before most anyone joined but it could have been with him. I always had a soft spot for creating a place where everyone felt comfortable to bs and hang out/be themselves so that's the spirit of how it started. Pretty quickly it grew due to the name having some reference to having a no-attack rule in the name (can't remember how it was worded anymore) and I remember needing to assign other admins to help enforce the server which is where I think I remember Shroom coming in (this was extremely early days).
| |
| Pretty quickly I was only around to enforce admin policies they didn't have access to and ultimately handed the server over to TMBJ which spawned on this server. Our LiCk clan at the time was primarily focused on Urban Terror and did not like all the JK2 people hanging around and soon they formed their own clan/irc chan. Pretty soon TMBJ, and more importantly Shroomduck, moved on to become a much bigger influence in the JK2 community.
| |
| It felt weird as fuck to look back at Meeting Shroom and setting this random course for one mp server that was the beginning of a pretty cool community in JK2!
| |
| I'll check in from time to time, ask anything!" I thought I'd preserve it here, because it doesn't seem nice to just delete it outright. --[[User:Masta|Masta]] ([[User talk:Masta|talk]]) 13:14, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

| Found this website and just love the history that spawned from that server back in the day. I THINK that server may have been the genesis of any "saber down" attack rules although I think it probably would have evolved either way.. Of course it's ok if it wasn't.. :) I can absolutely confirm "laming" as a word wasn't used during my time on the server as well. That definitely came well after my server was shut down.
| |
|
| |
| I appreciate this whole community and I knew something cool was created pretty soon after the server was made and that it was something that quickly took on a life of it's own and was out of my influence. TMBJ was an incredibly positive and tight group of people and I really hope they are all still in contact. As for [LiCk] we are all still in discord some-25+ years later.. :)

| Anything I can do to add to the history from my brief time just ask!
