[WALL OF TEXT YOU DON'T TO READ UNLESS YOU ARE NAMELESS2]
Ok Nameless, you claim you've been a damn lurker here for two years, so if you ARE reading this, here is how you do it-
Open the Bay Station 12 project (Public.dme) with DreamMaker.
Go to this file: code/hubs.dm
There is this line: name = "Bay Station 12"
Change it to this for example: name = "NOT BAY STATION 12 AT ALL"
Go to this file: code/globals.dm
There is this line: SS13_version = "Bay12 Games"
Change it to this for example: SS13_version = "STILL NOT BAY STATION 12"
Go to "Build" in the menu on the top and select "Compile".
That will update the game files.
For the MoTD-
Open up the config folder, from the game files folder.
Click on MoTD text file.
Erase All.
Type stuff in here. For example, "THIS IS NOT THE BAY 12 SERVER."
Copy it.
Save the text file.
Go back.
Go the the MoTD-Auth file.
Erase All.
Paste.
Save the Text File.
Go back.
Go to the MoTD-NoAuth File.
Erase All.
Paste.
Save the Text file.
Congrats! You are done, and we no longer dislike you.

What is required to host?
I might be able to temporarily run a server.
You just need the files, and you need to open a port on your router. I can send you the newest files when I get home.
how do you contact people through BYOND?
You just need to add them as friends, then you can 'page' them. You can also email people like this.
Hmm. That gives me an idea.
is the server going up? im bored :p
YARG NOT AT HOME YARG.
Yeah, he was about to pack up for the evening. You simply got on a little bit late.
MarineElite seems a bit obsessive, insisting we can't be the "official" bay 12 server because Toady One has not sanctioned it. A argument I.. rather disagree with. I find that these stations are powered by their communities, not their figureheads. Nameless02 is not part of the B12 community. (Well I've never seen him post here ( On deeper investigation, I found a "nameless" asking about stockpiles, but I doubt it's the same person.)) yet he's not shy to use our name and motd. A situation I'm sure will be rectified in the near future once some meaningful dialogues have been initiated.
Of course, if I really wanted to shut him up (Marine, that is), I could just PM Toady about making it official. But I really don't want to distract him from his work with these ridiculous trivialities. That just screams "pointless drama" to me. (A topic that causes me to break out in rashes.)
Ehh, don't do it. Plus I agree with you. Also, Nameless says he's been a lurker for two years, which (I think, at least.) means no account, but he reads what we say. So, apparently, since he has the server files, he should be aware of what to do, and how important it is.
