Alright. I often thought about mapping, but I am not exactly sure how I go about setting it up. Does anyone have a quick link to a guide or anything like that?

Theres no fully indepth guides to mapping; to get started, you just download the TG source, and open it in DreamMaker, then just modifiy/create a new map.
The best way to learn is just to look at the included map, or failing that, ask somebody who's looked at the source.

http://tgstation13.servehttp.com/wiki/index.php/Guide_to_mapping Is useful as a checklist

I think the fist step would be to set up a forum some where. A place where we can make a coherient plan and order. First lets agree on a name. I suggest Red dwarf. Any other suggestions? Once the suggestions are done and a name is agreed on I'll go set up the forums.

I'd be willing to do adminship. I have experience from the B12 server(for many years, I think I became an admin like in 2008, I'd have to check the original thread). Though I'm a little bored with SS13, I'm sure I'll be around semi-often. Send me a message if you're interested in me being an admin. I was mostly loose, and I've never personally banned someone. It was either a kick or a warning of a ban. Never needed to go past that.


Red Dwarf sounds cool. I assume your going off of Red Dwarf Star?

It comes mostly from the Red Dwarf Tv show. And from as a play on word from Dwarf fortress.
Red dwarf goes well with ss13 because most of the show took place on a floating garbage can with no breaks and too much millage on it. Accompanied by a malf borg.

Well, nothing is really running just yet.
But I have no problems with it, this server isn't BS12, I don't see why ban histories should carry over

(This also includes you MagmaDeath/Rogunz/Whoever you are now)

BAN HE

jk.  :P

Oh, how cute, it's a bunch of people who, in the past, had issues with the BS12 admins and/or game style, and feel they can do better, so they are all going to TRY to have a server with better RP than the others, but "less strict" guidelines. (And a bunch of unrelated people are taking interest in it, as well)

Good luck, I hope you manage to do well, but I expect that you'll find that it is very hard to be "less strict" without having issues with griefing, admin favouritism, arbitrary grudge bans, inter-admin flame wars over debated judgements... If you manage to survive the first months, you'll probably have a very nice server, that will develop it's own style and quirks, but at first there will be a very awkward period where a number of people who are admins have no idea what they are getting themselves into, with only "don't be those guys" and a grudge to give them any guidance of how to properly admin things.

Agh, this post isn't really communicating what I want it to communicate, and I don't see how to rewrite it to do so. Anyway, I wouldn't be at all surprised if any admins for this server who are primarily here because of a grudge against some BS12 admin or other will start to find an entirely surprising (to them) amount of sympathy and understanding, once they have to try to deal with being an admin themselves for a while... (Hint: admins get to play less than regular players, and have to spend more time in-game, as well. Otherwise, they are nothing more than an extremely overpowered wizard who has their powers every round, can extend their powers to preventing others from playing entirely, and nobody wants to play with as a result. And the rest of the server devolves into chaos without someone there to provide some semblance of order.)
