New contests!

Apr 07 2012 09:00 PM | brabo in Home
Hi guys,

Gry started a new contest, and we have to admit we have been a bit lazy with making new contests, so now we will be making more contests. Anyone can come with ideas for a contest, and after admin approval they will be moved to the GSP Opportunities page. So check it out regularly!

And a happy easter to y'all!!!

Server maintenance

Feb 13 2012 10:00 PM | brabo in Frontpage
We're out of luck!

On EU we had 2 breakages that need maintenance. The CPU cooler started malfunctioning and needs to be replaced.
Also the gpu decided to die. So the downtime will also be used to replace that.

We decided to schedule the downtime for saturday 25 februari at 10 AM CET.

Hopefully it will be brief.

This is not the end!

Jan 14 2012 10:00 PM | brabo in Home
So I guess most of you have read Zetas's announcement. For those of you who havent: http://darkholdings....allthefish.html In short, Zetas, who has not only been a kick-ass admin on Globalshellz, but who also supported us with many servers, has had to pull the plug. We all feel sorry for him.

What does this mean for Globalshellz? Well, atm it primarily means i have a shitton of work with moving all services to our last stronghold, our old EU server which is hosted by Notepad. All services will move to that one box.

This will also mean that resources are more scarce than they ever were, so we will be monitoring the load, and we might be forced to impose limits on cpu/mem usage later on.

I have also taken the decision to only allow IRC over ipv6 on old EU. We have to be realistic in the fact that we are piggy-backing on Notepad's home connection from now on.

As always, I am present on IRC if you have any questions/suggestions.

New Servers, Expansion, and more!

Aug 12 2011 04:00 AM | Zetas in Home
August is a big month for Global Shellz, we have 3 big expansion projects in the works.

  • Redundant LDAP Cluster
    • Loadbalanced LDAP cluster for redundant login availability and increased login speed
  • New Dev Service and Servers
    • A new cluster of debian servers for development only, no IRC bots or bouncers allowed. Members that choose this service will be granted access to all programming languages/sdk's, a much larger quota, and more process allowed. Details will be on the wiki soon. Initially you will have to pick one or other (your existing gshellz server with irc or the new cluster with no irc bots or bouncers, though irc clients are allowed) but eventually we may allow senators to use both systems, stay tuned on that one.
  • New dedicated server for US
    • The US server is the oldest server in our stable. It's an underpowered vmware slice sitting on my hardware in a colo in atlanta, but our new system is a dedicated box leased from Atlas Networks in Seattle, WA. The server stats will be up on the wiki soon. We hope to have all US members migrated to this server this weekend, we will launch early next week hopefully with minimal downtime.
Thanks,
Zetas

MUD Project

Jun 28 2011 09:00 PM | brabo in Home
As some of you know, we have recently started building a MUD. After alot of trying out we decided to go with the Dead Souls LPMudLib. Since we are building up a world from scratch, the MUD is still under heavy construction, but it is already playable.

For those interested in the MUD, there is a new subforum for all MUD-related talk: http://www.globalshe...g/forum/25-mud/
We also have a side-channel on freenode, #gshellz-mud. Feel free to join any time.

MUD server: mud.gshellz.org port 9997
