[Conan Exiles] New server, help wanted

[Fredster]

Hi, time to stop lurking after several years I guess.

 

So in short; I am looking to start an English language Conan Exiles role-play server with heavy erotic content based in the EU and would like some backup. Not just players but people willing to put in the time to be server admins.

 

I've been running ERP communities for about 6 years now, for a long time mostly on Star Wars: The Old Republic (The Shadow Rose, The Beautiful Thorn, Leth Tol Marsa if anyone has heard of them. All of them fun while they lasted, though mostly died because of me running everything for 30+ people and a lack of officers.) and more recently head admin on World of Akator until the server owner vanished leaving me unable to update the server. 

 

So this time you could say I've learnt my lesson and I am going to look for an 'officer' (Server admins, RP admins, moderators etc) or two before I start.

 

The theme of the server will be as stated erotic roleplay, though probably based close to lore as well. I want to bring out more of the brutal nature of the hyborian age. My biggest gripe with the servers I've played on is that I get a hugbox feel between the players who have been there a long time, and the same happened to some extent in Akator. I'm talking about keeping KoS banned and PVP down, but rather than 'Oh you're a new player here have 100 exotic flesh' more of 'Oh you're a new face, if you want food you're going to have to bend over and earn it'. I would also like to let characters develop the pseudo-cultures a little, no server wide rules of 'free use females' but if some group of characters want to enforce it then go ahead. If others don't want it then oh look you have RP conflict, which so long as the rules are followed can be fun for all involved.

 

I also want to include Futa, I know it's not lore friendly but it is a chink in my armour

 

Other than that the ideas are still up in the air. I have the money, I have the motivation, if I can get the people then we'll be bonza.

 

Thanks for reading and let me know if I've caught your interest or you have any ideas.

I would like to offer my help. But I never have been a admin before and I don't know what tasks would come of it. I've played on some erotic conan servers but some have too high pings and the others are like you said. "Oh you're a new player here have 100 exotic flesh"
I'm not sure how I can help you. But I'm still offering you my help.

Hi magierah,

 

Thanks for the offer, I appreciate it. I'm not sure you'll need to, if I do need your help we can discuss it. I've put a thread here with the main server information.

I've actually joined the discord and I'm interested to see where it goes. I haven't actually been in the server yet, I haven't received password yet.

 

Some things I think you should apply to the server is: Reduce the grind a lot! But keep the power curve. Which means when people join the server don't make them grind to level up or get basic materials, but don't just give out high level gear and mats. I've seen 2 servers, which I've been apart of die, because the grind was getting bad, especially after server wipes. PEOPLE HATE TO RESTART.

 

I like the idea of the victim tag, it lets people know they can do practically anything without permission, I've been apart of servers where everything needs to be consensual (This takes away from the fun). 

 

Make multiple admins, there needs to be atleast one on at all times. This does multiple things, mainly it lets people know, the server's owner cares about the server, it also helps keep the server in order. Admins can also host scripted events of sorts and create chaos, which helps create FUN!

 

Don't punish people for being bad. Of OOC assholes shouldn't be accepted (to a certain degree). But when people kidnap, murder, rape, rob, mug don't dissuade people from doing this, support it actually, it makes things more enjoyable. (There needs to be rules to limit large clans from robbing smaller one's to frequently though).

 

These are some of my thoughts and opinions. I also have a mod to recommend, take a look: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1568430878
