    Let me tell you right now, what you're trying to do is called leeching.

    what do you consider "fixing". anyway... i suggest you rethink things. think about how you wanna run it. what'll play the biggest role in your server, community? fun? think about staff, advertisements, investments etc..

    Why are you trying to be like everyone else? You should be unique and develop your server to its fullest extent.

    Rather it be proper code conventions or just general content, you should always give it your best.

    With a correct attitude, a vast amount of patience, and a little but if luck, your private server business will not only be more enjoyable, but it will also have more meaning.

    Barnabas, everyone has made valid points. Evidently, you haven't gotten a rep as a leecher since you didn't actually claim that you did any work on the server. I would strongly advise that you go ahead and just work with it, until you know what you're doing.

    Btw, nothing in-depth, but to get your server online...

    Step 1) L33CH! Change the name, welcome message, etc.
    Step 2) L33CH Client! Change client title and load text.
    Step 3) Change client IP to yours, be sure it's on the correct port and the port is opened (portforwarded to the port).
    Step 4) Compile, run server, open client, see if you can connect. If you can, have a friend test to check that they can connect.
    Step 5) Go back to step 3, make sure you didn't make the IP 0.0.0.0 or 127.0.0.1
    Step 6) You're welcome.
