Being a new and invested player, I would like to know about the long history of the server. Tell me what it started as, how it changed, the people, the staff, the game. Could you put it in chronological order? Tell me of the major incidents of players revolting against tim. Thanks if you do!
 
Idk the history before this be heres I goes. I joined comm feb or March of 2012. 50 slot server. Only a few maps, Moria Gold (an old, ugly one[not a fun map]), a very small helms deep, with a sweet east gate (bring back pls tim), Minas Morgul, and an old Minas Tirith. sometime in march I join the forums. I learn about an RP server recently announced. Some time in juneish I think Isengard is released old map, had tons of flowers and trees and shit. August, server is released. For a week. Then closed. I don't care to explain why. This is where I stop going on server and roam the forums a bunch. to who ever can pick up from here would be great.

Will put it simple, as I don't have time atm for a detailed list:

November 11 2012: First attempt of Siege server as a temporary game while we worked on RP (Small Helms Deep only)
Some weeks later: Siege was that much more popular than RP that we decided to make it permanent
Few weeks later: Talking with EpicQuestz about adding Minas Tirith and working together, I joined them
About a week later: Added Minas Tirith
Few weeks later: Added Minas Morgul
Few weeks later: Only_God joined and built Moria Gold (became mod/builder)
Few weeks later: Small moria great halls added with only 1 flag
About a month later: Small moria great halls removed
Few months later: Big Moria Great Halls added
Few months later: Erebor added
Few months later: Black Gate added

(It's not exact, but gives a pretty good list of how we went.

What about the fields? I'd love to know about them and when they existed. You know, I long to play those one day, as I never got to in the past.
 
Pellenor Fields? That map was a bloodbath. Gondor couldn't get out of spawn because of tons of trolls, orcs, and mages, plus the nazguls that camped outside it. When Rohan arrived, they were cut to pieces. Same with the Armies of the Dead. It was a good map, but it needed to be balanced.

It was that bad that they couldn't balance it, and deleted it? Also, where do last stand and last man standing come into play?

It was basically a funnel in the beginning for Gondor, then combat ws scattered around the map.

Wanted? Never heard of it. I'm glad that I can hear a complete history of the server, but what is Wanted?
 
Minigame. Bunch of escapees and a couple cops in a city or something and you have to hide from them. It's a last-prisoner-standing type.
 
Few weeks later: Added LMS
Few days later: Closed LMS
Few months later: Added RP
About a month later: Stopped RP
Few days or a week later: Re-added LMS
Few weeks later: LMS destroyed by bankrupt host

I added some more stuff for you, Tim, seems that you forgot about them(bold things).

You misread it... We never removed LMS ourselves, it went away once and that was because of the bankrupt host.
 
Wow I did not know what Wanted was... It is really cool of you guys to put it in order like that. THANKS!
