This blog post is not to undermine any server/admin.
This post is a reply to some or few of those who actually emailed me
asking if there are p.servers which I won't recommend and if possible that
I'd post them in this blog. so here goes..
these are some of the servers of funz, so having 1 forum for all is quite a mess
http://www.muonline.dk || Funz Muonline Maxed EXP Server
http://www.silvermu.com || Muonline Easy Leveling Server
http://www.unitedmu.com || Funz Muonline Challenging Server
http://www.phoenixmu.com || Funz MuOnline Low EXP server.
ancientmu just opened this week and its from funz.
and possibly more servers to open, so if you're up for not so good support.
try them at your own risk.
if you came from those servers listed above and possibly angry with this post.
GO and Make your own blog and make me look bad in it. lamer.

other things to be aware when looking for a private server to play in:
the quoted text above is an example of a database wipe. the admin wiped the databases, or it got wipe. most likely because it cannot maintain support from players or is running away from refund and such. if you see this on the server you want to play in, expect that within or less than 6 months playing in it, they'll wipe the databases again. a good server wouldn't wipe a db even if the accounts are 2 years old and inactive. so cross fingers and pray they wont wipe when you start playing.

• Don't fall for the new sets, especially for custom ones.
fact is, they'll just use it as an excuse when you'll encounter game problems like
item lost after dc. these type of server are mostly run by kids.
• Read the main page, if there are more than 5 typo errors, wrong grammar or omitted words, these servers mostly offer gm status through donation and with many gms or gm status that can be bought using site credits is a bad sign.
• BEWARE of: "Those who will make empty votes will be banned at the end of week! (or accounts with no votes)
yup, servers having these notices are lame, yes very lame. why would they force you to vote? they shouldn't have opened a server for free if you will be forced to vote.
• watch the online players status:
if online players is greater than 500 then don't join it. that is a laggy server. ( or a no people server or the server has only less than 30 online )
even if you have a dedicated vps, 1 server can only hold a maximum of 200 players online without having small lag. so choose wisely.
• Beware of .lv servers. Trust me, your better of playing on low rate season4 servers than playing on them. ( what server? this server http://muonline.com.lv/ )
• Beware of forums with ads, wtf? its a forum not a website. and its supposed to be a support forum for players not a cash cow for admins. so yeah. that's my point.
that's all for now, I will make reviews for servers/site in the weeks to come.
please share your opinion by commenting on this post.

I'd post them in this blog. so here goes..
- How to find a good server?
- - Be aware of the server network.
- - Know their background, join forums, ask around.
- How to find a good community?
- - a good community must have its own identity. not a network forum.
- What server should you be aware of?
- Funz Gaming Network
- why Funz? I play there. seriously, in 1 way or another most of those who emailed me played in one or more of their network servers, unitedmu, ancient, and a lot more.
