Contents.List of server emulators? Is shardwire.org dead?
It has been down for some time. Any other up to date list of emulators? - 03:13, 19 October 2006 (UTC)Yes, shardwire.org is dead. Mifune has moved on to other things. Has taken its place - 03:45, 23 May 2007 (UTC) Again PLEASE use innerwiki links in wikipedia. Its the sense of an encyclopedia to primary relate to itself! Do not revert prior to discuss here, why external links are better than external.06:47, 26 May 2007 (UTC) Consensus on opening sentence Just to report, after an long (off-wikipedia) discussion the new opening sentence is now a consus, now seen valid from all discussing sides.
Due to this consus all discutants feel the 'critism of the term' section no longer needed. As I've also a lot of other things to worry about than server emulations, I will in future now with this also leave this page for other community edition. 21:29, 12 July 2006 (UTC)The main arguments towards the consensus are:. the term is widely used in community. (this can be backed up with a lot of links, on google, on slashdot, on open directories.). emulators in the traditional always refered to emulation of hardware, either hardware by hardware, or hardware by software. Server emulator therefore violates the traditional understanding of the an (cpu) emulator.
there is valid concern, that the term may be used with analogous logic to e.g. Licq beeing an icq emulator, gaim beeing an aim emulator. Samba being a windows-file-server emulator. 21:13, 12 July 2006 (UTC)As the main critic of 'server emulator' I can confirm Jestix' report of a consensus being reached.
So long as it is made known in the opening paragraph that the term is colloquially accepted and widespread, but not technically accurate, then I have no problem with the article and would be willing to contribute to it and improve its quality. 00:25, 15 July 2006 (UTC) Cleanup Can we now remove the cleanup template? 21:16, 18 July 2006 (UTC)I've removed the cleanup tag, i like bananns but this article still needs references, so I've added that tag in its place. — 04:38, 19 July 2006 (UTC) The language and grammar in the article is still quite terrible, so I added a copyedit tag.
05:49, 19 July 2006 (UTC)RuneScape Private Servers Somone had placed Frugooscape into the RSPS Thing. Frugooscape is a server/client that does not help in the development of it. Moparscape is the true patched 317 client, and you can get Sources at that location. —Preceding comment added by 05:37, 13 August 2008 (UTC)I have noticed that too. I have removed it. 08:08, 30 August 2008 (UTC)Another Section? I think that there should be a seperate section for RSPSs.
Redirecting to a single 'server emulator' page doesn't really do justice to the topic of Runescape Private Servers. A page that would discuss the history and legality behind RSPSs would be better served than a simpel combined one. This would be the same for other servers too (WoW servers etc.) 01:09, 27 June 2011 (UTC)MapleStory Private Server Some mods will have to moderate the MapleStory private server sections more now. I have seen WAY to much people advertising their own servers!
The some real pservers are OdinMS, NinjaMS(Coded in Delphi), and TitanMS!! 09:01, 27 July 2008 (UTC)well, if the servers exist, they are real, even if they don't have many players - 15:14, 13 July 2008 (UTC)I don't think you get it. They are running off of Odin, Or titan. They did NOT CODE THEIR OWN SERVERS! 09:01, 27 July 2008 (UTC)You said that they are the only real private servers, not private server softwares- 10:15, 27 July 2008 (UTC).- Fine. Server emulator software. 08:06, 30 August 2008 (UTC)Recent legal actions by Nexon Corporation, however, have shut down many of the MapleStory private servers.
OdinMS has been sued, and many other private servers have been shut down, faced with the DMCA threat.
