do you really want go with that by this way?
Whatever will happen - NO.
Why? Coz then will be "Polish server, please vote" and as there are many ppl from poland, it will pass too! next step is Russian FN, it will be accepted by voting for 200%.
I promised to YOU, You DE, UK, NL, RU players to do NOT add any FN server except de and nl ones and im NOT gonna change my mind.

What a bad idea FFS If we do that, we will never meet people from poland or russia anymore, and finally it will decrease skill, and kill the community...
We have to accept that a good or a bad ping doesn't help you so much. People who are used to play with high ping can own with it. By example, Dian, Adam, Bartek, Monkey or Ruslan are considered as excellent players even when they have bad ping.
The community is strong and nice coz it contains people from every area of europa. In most of cases, we don't know when they joined, and why, but they are here, and we need them.
If we are splitting community (Poland, Russia, Germany, ...) we will just disolve the community, nothing more.
Finally, I just would like to remind that all Mr Adam is doing is for the community and not for poland people. We are loving his work whatever bullshit you can say.

i dont understand why adding another server to the FN list will split the community.
If its because the polish/russian people wont play on the server, thats not a problem we'd just use the other one.
UK people can use the freezing point server if they want, its just another option on the list.

There's no reason it should divide the community if it is done nicely. I see two ways to handle it:
1/ In soccer - and I don't know much about that popular sport, teams are supposed to have an advantage when playing locally. That's because when you play on your grounds, you get more of your fan club etc. less bashers. Of course, a soccer team plays only once in their home stadium, then they play on foreign stadiums. It makes the game more dynamic as small local teams are more likely to hold up and defend their ground when playing on a closer server. And it's only a better reward when your team wins against another team whether they have low pings vs high pings, or high pings vs low pings. If it can be done in FN, it would really give a meaning to the "League" term.
2/ It's obvious that there are some match instances where both teams would benefit from playing on a server west of Germany, or east of Germany. For instance, it seems stupid that Russian people play on Germany servers when they fight one another. They get 80 ping whereas they could get a neat 30. Also, XT - for instance - has members from both Portugal and England, both of which are western europe peninsulas (I guess England can count as a peninsula with the tunnel sous la manche): obviously, whenever XT challenges a team with a similar geographical disposition, it would be better for them to play on a French server.
But for 1/, we would need a more elaborate challenging system on FraggedNation. It's always open for suggestion and debate though. And for 2/, you and I both know how feasible it would be given some players low maturity (whom, as long as there is no automatic server selection system, would always pick their basement server).

Ben that is a great idea and when I was still pushing towards this server coming back to FN I thought of the following rule:
Clan 1 challenges Clan 2 on a server Clan 1 chooses.
Clan 2 then has the right after that match (and after playing some other team) to play Clan 1 on the server Clan 2 wants.
This is all great and etc but honestly and given the open mind of some of the people in this community I rather just pitch in to buy a more powerful server.

DE servers are good cause they are in the middle. Any other would be a shift to either side. So, DE servers is the best choice for community servers. There is no big difference between playing with 30 or 60 ping. Hence, there is no great technical advantage for either team. Skill rules. Otherwise, ping rules and that sucks.

Well, if you look a map, poland would be the middle of our community members, as far from uk as russia: how come i ping 30 on german server and directly 70 on poland ones? Like how come spiral (who is lost in the middle of finland ^^) pings 60 when a russian pings 100+ ? Facilities maybe?
