Choosing the right what? Game? Room? Connection? Network?

Uh. A server? You mean a computer? Serving what? Punctuation?

Ok well, start saving your allowance and maybe in a year or so you'll be able to afford the setup fee's and the first month of a decent server. Granted, this would only be a celeron server but it's a start right?

Dear God, he just asked a question 1st. You don't need to yell at him for it, even if it was asked with bad grammar.

1stStrike wasn't yelling at him at all, heh.

I think fergusoncory14 doesn't really know what he's asking for, and what he needs.
I just think he wants to buy a new computer, heh.

Question is, how did he get to this forum?

I know this is a public forum, but isn't it a little odd?

oh, he needs an ISP....where do you live ferqusoncory? if you can afford cable, id say get Optimum Online if it is available near you, if not, then i dunno, anything other than dial up

He lives in Michigan, and Optimum Online is only in the Tri-state area.

I was under the impression that the state or city or whatever of Michigan is inside the USA, yet he doesn't speak English well...

I'm as puzzled as you are.

His alias sounds French.
Is there a place in canada/quebec called Michigan?

Katie - Mon Jul 11, 2005 5:33 pm
Post subject:

1stStrike is still mean. :-p

Anyhow, I live in Michigan too, but the only decent Cable ISP is Charter, and that's in only about 1/2 the state. Unless you live somewhere mainstream like Detroit or in the vacinity, or if you live in the Tri-Cities (Saginaw, Woo woo!), you're probably SOL.

Ok ferg. This forum is about server help in terms of the game SubSpace -- in relation to running a server or zone in this game. So your post isn't really on topic. Maybe you'll get a good reply.

That wasn't me yelling. And yes, I am mean. I was being sarcastic though.

Anyway, for an ISP (none of us call it a server) you should check out broadbandreports.com

You can find reviews of local isps there which should help you out. Hopefully. I know it did for me.

or this?

IBM X-Series? I do not reccomend either for playing computer games.

Build your own computer.
