To whom it may concern.

Our web host on which the forums resides has scheduled an update. During the period of the update the forums and the homepage will be unavailable. There is no need for panic as this is perfectly fine.

The expected downtime will be up to 25 minutes and will take place between 12:00 AM and 2:00 AM EST / 5:00 and 7:00 UTC on Monday, the 7th of March.

Best regards,

The Nuclear District administrators.

My favorites are 

• CS:GO
• CS:S
• CS 1.6
• Euro Truck Simulator 2

Ah yes CSGO and ETS2. It's a shame that their graphics look dated otherwise I would've put them in my list.

• Make it a torrent machine with a torrent client that supports a "black hole" function meaning it'll scan a certain folder for torrent files and automatically download those detected.
• Download automation.
  • CouchPotato downloads movies automatically, easily and in the best quality as soon as they are available.
  • SickBeard Automatically finds new and old episodes for you and it works with your current download client!
  • SickRage Automatic Video Library Manager for TV Shows. It watches for new episodes of your favorite shows, and when they are posted it does its magic.
  • Sonarr is a PVR for Usenet and BitTorrent users.
  • FlexGet is a multipurpose automation tool for content like torrents, nzbs, podcasts, comics, series, movies, etc.
  • sabnzbd makes Usenet as simple and streamlined as possible by automating everything we can.
  • nzbget is a binary downloader, which downloads files from Usenet based on information given in nzb-files.
  • headphones is an automated music downloader for NZB and Torrent, written in Python. It supports SABnzbd, NZBget, Transmission, µTorrent and Blackhole.
• Host a VPN with OpenVPN.
• Host your own git with Gogs, this is possibly extremely useful for you.
• Transform it into a router with pfSense.
• Host your own cloud with something like owncloud.
• LAMP, you know what it is.

Most of these suggestions come straight from the resource collection on the homelab subreddit. This list is also worth spitting through.

My personal favorites which can be considered as beautiful:

• Assassin's Creed IV
• Bioshock Infinite
• Crysis 1 & 2
• Dishonored
• Elite Dangerous
• Far Cry 3
• Kerbal Space Program (Modded)
• Metro Last Light
• Skyrim (Modded)
• The Witcher 2 & 3

I eventually aim for something like this, so I can then get the Rainmeter going...

Rainmeter can be quite glorious indeed, any specific plans for it?

Windows desktop please. Not Linux honey.

I don't see any rules which excludes a specific OS. With that said, my Windows desktop is just as empty.

Hello everyone.

We have recently launched our new homepage over here! The new homepage contains a list of the servers we're currently running alongside some useful links like direct contact to the administrators and our social media.

We've also included a new page called the Twitch feeds which can be found by clicking the Twitch icon or the Twitch block further down below the main page. The Twitch feeds will be a list of regular streamers associated with this community, it could very well be you. We do however have two small requirements, which are as follows:

• You have to stream at least twice a week.
• You need to mention Nuclear District, including a url to our homepage, somewhere on your channel or the video stream.

If you've met these two requirements and wish to be added to the list, please PM Atomicbeast101.

If you're willing to get in to streaming but you're not sure how then send me a PM and I'll happily help you out. If there is high demand we'll be making a video walking you through the steps of setting up a stream.

Other than that, your feedback is always welcome over in our feedback forum. Don't forget to join our Steam group to have a game with us and help the community out by checking in on some of our social media pages, you're guaranteed to receive kisses from our administrators!

Sincerely,

the Nuclear District administration.

I'm suggesting that I buy an Unturned server 

The misunderstanding in this thread is painful to watch.

http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/a/1730691311 some reason can't turn it into a image so click it lazy people

That moment when even that page provides a direct url to the corresponding image... Who's the lazy guy here?

I'm playing a lot of Elite: Dangerous as of late, picked up Miscreated with some lads a couple of days ago too. Used to play plentiful of CS:GO but I'm currently having a break from it right now

What happened to your campaign?

Too busy for my plans this week

Hello everyone.

This is a very quick update about a change we've made on the Team Fortress 2 server.

The Team Fortress 2 server has now been divided into separate servers in order to give every game mode its own place. Those game modes currently being Payload, Capture the Flag and King of the Hill. Each server has a rotation of 10 suitable maps. Giving each game mode its own server makes sure people can enjoy their most beloved mode 24/7.

IPs:

Payload:  tf2-pl.nucleardistrict.net

Capture the Flag:  tf2-ctf.nucleardistrict.net

King of the Hill:  tf2-koth.nucleardistrict.net

This change was inspired by feedback from @natethegreat. We truly appreciate everyone's feedback whether it's negative or positive. If you happen to feel the need to tell us about something that could be improved please head over to the feedback sub forum.

Sincerely,

the Nuclear District administration.

Go ahead and start it, when do you suggest we close it?

Whilst were at it I wouldn't mind receiving a 3440x1440 monitor.

What about a reward called "Daily Member "(or whatever you want to call it). This reward shall be given to players who spend a lot of time in the server.

That's a thing we should consider indeed

I am guessing you have steam.. ugh why does everyone want me to get steam?

A shame that you don't have it. If you're looking for a game on Linux/Windows/Mac then this is the place you should be. It's also a nice way of communication.

We've added an award for advertisers and a category for contest awards. We'll be making awards for popular contests like the "President of the Earth and Galaxy" election that is going on right now, this way your amazingness will always be shown.

Hello everyone!

As you may or may not have noticed we've added an extra tab at the top of the forums called "Awards". But now we wish to have your feedback about the awards, their looks and any missing ones. If you have anything to say related to the awards, please post it here!

For those who do not know what awards are and what they do. They're badges awarded by the administrators which will show up underneath your name every time you post. Each award has a different meaning and looks pretty nifty so they even bring some recognition with them.

As of right now we have these awards set up:

• Staff position; Awarded to anyone who is or has been staff of Nuclear District or Chaotic United.
• Owner's Recognition; Only awarded by Nuke/Atomicbeast101 to those that have done something special for the community.
• Dedicated Donator; For people who have donated a decent amount of money to keep us online.
• Developer; Awarded to anyone who has written some code for the community.
• Forum Poster; Given to those that have many (but high quality) forum posts.
• Server Maintainer; For those that run an official or unofficial server for the community.
• Video Creator; Given to people that have created a video related to the community and scored some views on it.

Cheers,

Alex.

Well, I won't have time for my plans given that I'll be dead busy till the end of next week. I'm suggesting a close on the 19th of February.

Thank you kind for keeping the forums clean Aly. In case you wish to get to know such things from others we'll have to consider an 18+ sub.

The person below me hates pudding.

When does the poll close? I gotta know when I have to start my campaign.

You gotta create a whole new topic, poll still bugged.

Also, time for the propaganda!

The term lbgt doesn't ring any bells but people are allowed to live their life the way they'd like and go with the sexual orientation that best suits them. As for the friends part, no. But my school mentor is homosexual and we get along nicely so it sorta counts I guess.

The person below me actually enjoyed their Monday.
