well im new to this site but ive played conquer for years im just wonder a lot of things mainly about private servers
1.why does every private server in the top ten on xtreme seem to get hacked and then threatened?
2.are most servers Egypt based cause a lot of the top tens have been Egyptian gms
3.why do most servers not keep up with normal co
4.why is the most common chat box xat based it seems odd that everyone uses it
5.i know donations keep servers afloat but all donaters are usually way to overpowered then the normal players is there any pservers that dont see it that way

well i think that's most of them thanks for your time

1. Because of jealous people who want money/to steal players, I'd suppose. It's all crap they get from hackforums that anyone could set up anyway.
2. Not necessarily. There are a lot of Egyptian players now, so I'd suppose they'd want to play on an Egyptian server.
3. Because very few people have/can crack the new crypto, and if they have it, they don't know what to do with it, what it is, or how to implement it.
4. I don't know. We use it for security reasons, but I hate xat so much.
5. That's right. Donators are overpowered on these random crap servers because the servers will shut down in a month or two once they milk donations out of the donators and it's no longer profitable for them anymore. This includes promising the players things that they can't implement in an attempt to keep their player base. Be informed, and don't waste your time on one of these servers.

Private servers are in a pretty sad state right now.
