Maybe we could also include some great quotes of the "Why is UT99 the best?"-Thread: http://www.ut99.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=202
Linking to that thread in the text would be an option too.

Re: Project UT Decade
If you need anyone to play with words, send me a PM. I'm good with words and am able to make texts sound way more convincible than they had been. So if you need me to edit big texts to make them more attractive.. poke me =)
<The End Is Near, Because Texie Is Here!> Or something like that <.<
They pwn. They really do. Want one too? Pm me ;D

Re: Project UT Decade
Hm sounds good.
Btw... which way we want to take now? directly Mail to epic, announcement in their forums, starting a petition with signature-function, ...?
Point two: Which text we want to use? Did you read Kings Text, Texie? (^^)

Re: Project UT Decade
Yeah I thought it was awesome ^^
I meant posts around this one. I mean, Kings's text is just flawless and wow :O
Just trying to help a bit, I'm not good with coding or anything with computers except for shooting people
So I might as well try and help this way!

I agree with Mr.Stricklin however. Also I believe the first thing to be done is a difficult decision.
If we email Epic directly, we will have nothing to back our request up with.
If we start a petition first, it may just fizzle and die out.
If we take Opinions first, it could just repeat what we already have here. However we need a plunge. One to set the start of things in stone, I would generally say that we need a fair few opinions first.
Ones which will explain best our intentions, without repeating ad nauseum whateveryone else thinks also. IE No repeating.
Oh also I have a message from a special member from the MOZnet team Im surprised none of us mentioned it. I have already asked MOZ members for their suggestions and Ideas and this ones a corker even if 436 doesnt go open.

A simple engine patch to deal with well known issues of servers would keep things going quite a bit into the future and could be sold as an upgraded version. Primarily server and client side upgrade to issue true Player ID's by paid serial number like 2k4 and UT3. That way you can truly ban someone. UT99 was ahead of it's time but the only thing they didn't have foresight on was the banning by IP. Every other failing has been modded by players and masters like Rog. If they made the patch and put it available for download for a couple bucks, with the issuance of a serial and they could recoupe their cost. Servers should be able to run open or serial only.
I'm sure there's a couple other tiny minor bugs that Rogers could cite, but the banning capability is the biggest pain imo. The graphics and 3D engine need no upgrade. It is what it is and we all love it. Why mess with perfection.
