Seeding is important! Seed our servers.

[Ric]

Some of you don't really have an idea to what seeding is, allow me to explain.

Seeding is the act of purposely idling in a server to get it off the empty servers list. What is the empty servers list? Most Counter-Strike: Source players usually have the "hide empty servers" checked when they check the server lists. If our servers are empty, they won't show. If they don't show, many people will not know about our servers.

A simple remedy to that is seeding our servers. People don't necessarily have to join our servers, but just by seeing our =(eGO)= tag or (RECRUITING) might interest them to visit our website.

Help our community and if you have the resources, please consider seeding our servers before bed or work.

I pay attention to seeders and it's a great way to get noticed, win dedicated supporter, earn forum achievements, and more.

I used to do that, now I can't play any games for more than 30minutes before my PC shuts down because my power supply and graphics card overheat 8)

Do we only spec jail server or just in general any server that is empty? Thank you

Any eGO server. I just play Jail, so I used it as an example when making this thread. I check out all of our servers daily to see what's happening in them, who may be seeding, who catches my interest, and more. Remember, there's other Leadership members as well, so we're all watching.

Didn't someone show us how to run (seed) CS:S without actually starting the game. I think it was some set of startup variables.

Seeding is not a good way for servers to get populated. Seeding is about as good as bot filling (where a server on the list shows 18/32, but when you join all bots leave). The best way is to have active players organize a playtime and join a dead server.
