Q requests re-activated

Posted by Ferg on Monday 01 December 2003

From today, the Q requests have been officially re-opened for public access. To request Q, type "/msg R requestq #channel" on IRC, replacing #channel with your channel name.

The new request system works as an upgrade to L, you must already have L on your channel to request Q. When you issue the upgrade request, the chanlev on your channel will be copied from L to Q and L will be deleted.

To request Q, you must have an average of at least 100 users on your channel, measured over a 14 day period. There is also a web-based request system due to be launched shortly.

Thanks for your support

The QuakeNet staff.

UPDATE:
At present the requirements are set very high. This is to allow the system to be tested. The requirement will be reduced over the coming weeks.

UPDATE:
The requirement for Q has now been reduced to 70 users, measured over a 14 day period. We have also fixed some bugs in the request system which caused false rejection of applications, these bugs were caused by funny nickname characters.

UPDATE:
The requirement for Q has now been reduced to 50 users, measured over a 14 day period.

Please log in to post comments.

TeraX said on Monday 01 December 2003

100 users?? That\'s quite a bunch! But it\'s nice having it back, will probably keep some of the whining away ;) (Not that there isn\'t anything to whine of again...)

jfs said on Monday 01 December 2003

Great, good job staff.

GraveBackup said on Monday 01 December 2003

Our staff is not as lazy as you might have thought :)

Jack-The-Ripper said on Monday 01 December 2003

!?!??!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! 100 users?!!?!?!?!?!? it used to be 25!!!!!!!!!!! i can understand 50.. but 100?! you got to be kiddin.

zoR said on Monday 01 December 2003

Nice! =) But, too high average!

r3Fl3X said on Monday 01 December 2003

well, nice but the average is really to high... it should be about 50 idlers or so

{Bhf}tuut_tuut said on Monday 01 December 2003

100 users is lower then i thought - #12 L and a eggdrop with a good config will be very good in a channel with 50-150 users you don\'t need Q in there

Sephiroth said on Monday 01 December 2003

and The L ?!? I need it!!

Univ-MaSaMuNe said on Monday 01 December 2003

nice! but the 100 idler limit is much to high :/

D31n3MuDd4 said on Monday 01 December 2003

nice work dudes :)

Maastaaa said on Monday 01 December 2003

Yes, the average is very high, why you dint make it to 50?

Coaster said on Monday 01 December 2003

oh my god!! i have waited for sooo long and now the limit is 100... well thx for nothing m8s

electricone said on Monday 01 December 2003

100 users thats very much and to have them there for 2 weeks thats gonna be hard

SpeXx said on Monday 01 December 2003

well done :)

nAv1 said on Monday 01 December 2003

Where can I found L ??

Univ-MaSaMuNe said on Monday 01 December 2003

hmmm will the trustrequest be re-activated too soon ? :(

WWSIS-Skill said on Monday 01 December 2003

Crazy ? I have wait us so long and then this VERY high Limit of 100 User on 2 Weeks ? Q.Net i think this suxx :/

}CKO_Flashi{ said on Monday 01 December 2003

Q is not and should not be any kind of status symbol. It\'s a tool to manage a channel, but it certainly isn\'t required for any channel, given the options available in L, asuka and any proper client-bot put together. The high (but quite fitting, IMHO) limit is to avoid wasting resources on channels that don\'t need the excessive processing power the Q bot currently requires. But there still isn\'t anything Q can do that a well-coded client-bot can\'t do.

jfs said on Monday 01 December 2003

100 is not too high, Qnet is growing all the time :] Just hope that the request does work (;

BaFe said on Monday 01 December 2003

remember this is Q, not Q9. while the current Q service will cope with new channels for now its still a bit of a resource hog.

specceh said on Monday 01 December 2003

when ist the trust request re-activated ????

insa2k said on Monday 01 December 2003

when ist the trust request re-activated ????

insa2k said on Monday 01 December 2003

The limit won\'t be 100 for ever, we plan to reduce it a lot once we\'re sure the system works properly.

splidge said on Monday 01 December 2003

100 are ok. For 4Years 25 are harder to get as now 100 with all the bouncer and kids.

bio^genom said on Monday 01 December 2003

At first, i hope the german lamers won\'t ask for Q anymore :) *$me prays to the staff of quakenet* Q is now a Service for all channels or still only for clans and game related channels?

TheAim said on Monday 01 December 2003

heh, I\'m guessing that if the requirements were 50, people would just say \'why not 25! this is mad, q-net sucks\' anyway...

salteh said on Monday 01 December 2003

Is it possible to move a Q with the new System? The FAQ says that you have to use the Services-Link that doesn\'t exist anymore...

Braindead_One said on Monday 01 December 2003

And the L ?????? :\'(

Univ-MaSaMuNe said on Monday 01 December 2003

Is there a CLoneScan aktiv ? Because to get 150 Bouncer isn´t a problem for kids :) little question why dont we get S in #mytsunami ??? have 120idler (2weeks)

bio^genom said on Monday 01 December 2003

wow! I can´t believe what i´m seeing. Is it true? :P

asdfa said on Monday 01 December 2003

a 100 rate is likely high I think, we got around 90 idlers tot 130 person in our channel but not allways :( it aint fair :)

diseased said on Monday 01 December 2003

This is so nice, idont have to let my bot whois everyone for q-auth blacklist anymore

FST said on Monday 01 December 2003

I think it is shice that i can not move Q , i have onoth Q\'s but , why i can not move them???? THX 4 help

eX0tic said on Monday 01 December 2003

hmm thats to easy to get Q. I think only clans and gamer communitys should get Q like bfore.. :/ and whats about requesting Q in chans with more than 30 characters? will it ever be possible?

blue said on Monday 01 December 2003

HALELUJA

teamcef`Bear said on Monday 01 December 2003

hmm the idler average should be at least 30 coz L cant take any more than 30 channel flags for users. 100 is simple too high :(

systemfeind said on Monday 01 December 2003

I think 100 is good limit... If you are under 100 u dont need Q ... keep 100 as a limit.

rexas said on Monday 01 December 2003

you dont give 30 users a flag because op4free isnt allowed

bio^genom said on Monday 01 December 2003

sry, but where is the challange? i was waitung for Q a long time, coz it was hard to get. now, everybody could get it after a few days idlerchanging etc :> i\'ll wait and drink coffee Oo ehm.. whats with Q moving? do u have a userlimit there, too? i hope not :/

HollinG said on Monday 01 December 2003

HI, now i wanna tell something to this too. A BIG THX and RESPECT to the whole Quakenet Staff. All Opers, all helpers and all other guys, working on this and on Q9, big thx. You did and i hope still do :) a good job. Continue this way and Quakenet will grow more and more. Doom_Bringer ( can be found at #help.script )

100 users are too much ! i think 30-50 users is ok :D --- Term!nator

UF-Terminator said on Monday 01 December 2003

Very nice. I\'m glad to see Q again. L was always finde, but Q also has some advantages. It was a long time without it (approximately 1 year) but I hope the new Q will run as you want it to run :)

DMFDarthHunter said on Monday 01 December 2003

#48, Since when is having Q on your channel a challenge? Looks like I missed something. :\\

Voronoi said on Monday 01 December 2003

100 Users is ok. There\'s no need for Q in a 25 users channel. gj, Quakenet. :]

DaRul3rafk said on Monday 01 December 2003

Lets geta a nice Q-moving system up instead ^^

s0ren said on Monday 01 December 2003

wow 100 :x bah my channel has around 80

HeuF said on Monday 01 December 2003

i think, if your going to have it at 100, then you should Upgrade Ls user limit, as we have a chan of 80-90 and our L is full, but then we are only 10 under Q, its quite annoying ;[

{TDR}Taxman said on Monday 01 December 2003

I say u should get request should be on 50....

CL-krusty said on Monday 01 December 2003

Request should be on 50+

cj said on Monday 01 December 2003

agree with #61 100 is too much :/

KBSaLiX said on Monday 01 December 2003

nice work but 100 users? O_o

M0B said on Monday 01 December 2003

nice with Q again but now it is IMPOSSIBLE to create a new channel... can´t move L.. and can´t request L... and can´t get Q if you don´t got L... So out company can not get an own channel :/

Erling1 said on Monday 01 December 2003

at last! after years of waiting (:

sozou said on Monday 01 December 2003

aehm guys, log in on the rigth site with you Qauth nick and pwd then you can request L. So my lovely Qnet Staff we have around 100 useres at our chan but i wont think that they are interested in buying a flatrate so they can ever stand in the irc and w ecan reuqest a Q. set the limit to 50+ useres, i think this will be better ;>

eD`banzai said on Monday 01 December 2003

Weee L is avalible :)

Erling1 said on Monday 01 December 2003

limit 100 is okay, but i need a channel service for a channel with more than 30 characters to protect it. Is there any chance to get Q?

blue said on Monday 01 December 2003

Please read the whole article for those asking for new Q channels ... \'There is also a web-based request system due to be launched shortly\'. Also see splidge\'s comment about the 100 avg requirement. It is under review and will be lowered if it is seen that Q is handling the number of upgrade requests.

specceh said on Monday 01 December 2003

Great that Q is back but the limit 100 is to high i think. lower it to old limit (25) and its great!

Zavatar^here said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

UPDATE: At present the requirements are set very high. This is to allow the system to be tested. The requirement will be reduced over the coming weeks. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ppl look at that. and stop complaining about the 100 users limit? thats just a waste of time.

theprince said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

Nice to see that the Q-request is open again. There is a backside though, I believe it will increase advertising, since many people think that Q is more \"leet\" than L. That\'s a pitty imo. L is more than good enough for small channels, and I do believe many owners of small channels will be advertising to get L. I hope high requirements will stop this, and I really hope you won\'t reduce the requirements much. Honestly I hope you wouldn\'t do that at all...

CheF^ said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

Edit to my last post: (...)and I do believe many owners of small channels will be advertising to get L(...) I ment Q, not L.

CheF^ said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

finally Q request is back, good job Qnet, I hope the requirements will be reduced fast cuz 100 users that\'s enormous ! :D gl Qnet ;)

supernain said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

can i now move my old Q bot to the new clan-chan or it is not possible?

{RAF}-Pac- said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

nice work ;)

n3wton said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

great work there q.org, But if this system-tool is going to be for everyone, and be used as \"bling bling\" on every 25-30 channels. Why not make One new servicebot? Like F or something? ;) for the absolute comunity-channels with 400+ channels? Is this an ideá? hope so. Loads of r.e.s.p.e.c.t to everyone of you.

eliassen said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

Is there a Clone Scan ? I have nearly 200 Idler 120 of them are Bouncer and can\'t request Q :/ Thx Bye

Recoilmaster said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

2 damn high requirments :( Plz put them down to 50 or 40 :/

owner said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

i think the limit 100 is a little bit high, but! when the limit goes down i think the limit 70 idlers is a little bit more perfect :P

qu3ri said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

Good job, QuakeNet. Even though the limit is set a bit high, people will, imo, always be complaining the requirements are too high anyway.

dopeh said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

100 users limit wont stop cs clans from geting the Q :) Even the most n00b cs clans have like 100-200 ppl on channel(most of them clones).

{slayer} said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

lol, like all channels/clans where cs-related

h4Xx said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

Is it possible to use verbosity of a channel as a criterion for getting Q?

Korsakov said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

The limit is perfecty I think. I don\'t know if there is a Clone Protection in the QRequestSystem. Would be better, or not?. So that the shit CS Clans can not request their Q, if they have 100 idlers, but 80% are clones... I hate that... :X

smue said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

NNNOOOOOOO!!! the limit 100 is to high, the limit should be 50-70 not more. i hope quakenet change this limit soon as posible

qu3ri said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

bad!!! 100 users? very bad

{00}krafti said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

dudes read what they say, it is still in testing phase. it will be reduced....

wappie said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

Nice taht u have editt the requerment from 100 to 70 Useres in the channel!!! THX i\'am still waiting 4 S and Q :)

eX0tic said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

read:this is A TEST :) just to check if the system works, don\'t bother whine about it. They will reduce the average user limit.

SoSStephaN said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

GJ :)

{ROKKA}Delux said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

100?! I think it\'s too much too... Anyway, I suggest you to close #qrequest (just another wasted memory...)

nadavs said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

Thats best what you ever doing..!! \\\\o Quakenet o//

sifa said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

Hi! I think a limit of 50 is good. mfg

gh0st2k said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

WTF 100 users?? nooo... 50 is better...

Ruutana said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

nice work!! :)

nkie-bot said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

i think the limit of 70 users is ok.

Nonnzen said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

really good job, *request* :-)

trixo said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

i think reducing the limit from 100 to now 70 was the right decision. in former times it were 15 but this number was MUCH to low. Now Q will be kind of \"higher\" bot for bigger chans.

TrustNoOne said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

I think, a limit of 50 users would be great :D

LordArion said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

instead of pushing the userlimit high (yes i know, tahts a test:> ) you could remove the unused Q\'s better. ok, there is no traffic or what, but the chanlevs often are very full i think. a little question: will the homepage-requirements change, or must i have a website to get Q in the future?

HollinG said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

There should be a possibility to see the average usernumber of the last 14 day :D

LordArion said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

Nice nice plz check you support on #feds 4 german supporter my english its bad :)

G-lined2003 said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

70 is still very high! how many flags can be saved in L ? i guess 30! and now look, if i have a channel of 60 idlers and i want to give 10 ao and 30 vg, thats bad :/ will the idler limit be decreased once again ? o_O

D31n3MuDd4 said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

hi, did your 100 users for Q work fine? 70 is good... I have 77 in my channel right now... but I always have more than 68 and has never went any lower in like 2 months.... :D put it down to 65 for a week lol :P

cj said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

A51vampire said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

#104 simple answer..dont use L/Q for assigning +av, use a script that checks idents or hostmasks. +av is no security risk therefore you do not need Q to do it. As for why you should give ppl +av, well the purpose of the flag is to allow trusted indivuduals to talk during +m, not as a flag to say \'this guy is my friend\'. The servers and services expect the former so if you want to use those flags in other ways its really your problem.

specceh said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

EXCELLENT JOB QUAKENET ! Couldnt rephrase the answer :D Damn, this is a great gift in december :P

SgtStrider said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

yes nais one people.. Quakenet ownz.. i think the average of 70 people is good, because if you have L and have 50 people in your chan you don\'t need Q.. what specceh said is okay,.. I think Quakenet is on the better Way. Yet only one Supporter who closed german search chans must be suspendet, then Quakenet is the Best :) .. you know who i mean :> .. ok that was my statement! thank you and go on Quakenet.. :) cya d3sti

eXdesti16 said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

you have on the busy time of the day around the 100 till 120 users on my chan. but at night when everyone is a sleep you\'ll have like 30 so you average would be like very low again :) then is 70 still high not everyone leaves his pc on or they have a bnc to cover them up :\'( then it\'s still very high the 70 users

diseased said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

#35 you were right, they\'re still whining :P

bS`Crappy said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

i take it with the webr equest based system or shortly after it will be possible to move Q from one channel to another? If so is it likely the limits will still apply, since it is a move and not asking for another Q (hence less resources used) or lower limits?

bry said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

What?? 70 users its still to high 25 was bettter... why not 25?

ganstarusakko said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

agree with #112, exact same situation... + our L is full atm

bzz-pack said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

#110 i mean

bzz-pack said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

I will wait 4 the day when Q needs an average Usernumber of 30-40 People - i\'m waiting since 1 1/2 year, i think - so i can wait this 1-2 Month more :) A BIG THANKS TO THE QUAKENET STAFF, that you do all this 4 free :)

owner said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

i think 70 idlers are to much. 50 does it . but Q is back nice work !

gswatcher said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

Welcome back Mr Q :)

slowhand said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

To you people complaining about Q\'s certain requirements, just think of the time, effort these guys put in, and the fact they do it for free. If you want Q to join your channel with little if any requirements, make your own server and stop with the constant complaining. They pay for their boxes which host services, or servers, so atleast show some respect and decency and be patiant with what they have to offer, and with what interest they have in both bandwidth usage and CPU time. Just my two c

eviley said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

HMmm 70 is not very high , but the big problem is \" how many people are going to spam channel for \"REQUEST Q in #.... , need Performer.. \" And its not funny to see each minute this sort of spam .. Q request IS back , now SPAM \"#\" is back too :/

U-proutie said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

Simple solution to people spamming, tell them no. Qnet could... I suppose make a constant requirement for the time Q is in the channel, so once the average of 70 is complete and Q is added, if average drops below 60/70% of the first requirement, it leaves and returns L with original user flags, then people who spam till they get Q will lose their channel. Q is just as good as L only some different functions, just get L and make a simple script for other commands.....

eviley said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

There are even plenty of eggdrop supply channels within Qnet which will offer free eggdrops which offer the same commands as Q, if not more, just use one of them?

eviley said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

evilay bad idea!, You can always have a badder time of the year with leagues, sometimes a league and it gets full, the other times with no league there are less users, but Q is still required then for all the ops voices etc! To the others, please quit the whining the 70 ppl average is enough!, where the fuck do you need Q for when you don\'t got more then 70 ppl @ ur chan, then 50% of the ppl must have a flag in L. And in the night the average will go lower doesn\'t matter, you can make that go

Jack` said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

DAMNIT!! 70 is allså to much maan comon now i need Q desperatly... aaahhh

electricone said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

I\'m glad the Q Requests are back up. Stop a load of people asking for it in #help. If you wanted to use Q-Auths for opping/voicing people it is possable for a bot to get the auth name of a user from the whois command. Using this all you need is L and your bot. L to op the bot then everything else can be done via the bot. Personnaly the only time I would have Q in a channel is when you have a Very large amount of users that have to be in a channel at any one time (300+).

Sephectja said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

what\'s the use of the high requirements set for Q? There\'s S as an extra for the real big channels. Just ask the old amount of 25 or 30 or whatever? cause this is way too much :|

eurikm0 said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

nooooo not 100 users?? 25 it was already... plzz change...

RaXXXO said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

70 is good! Keep it pals :]

BaFe said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

crap now we need a lot of idlers in our channel :\'( i neva gonna make that :\'(

NiFkE said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

Well get L u moron #131,#124. Jeez you think you NEED Q, GET AN L ITS PRACTICALLY THE SAME!!!, Qnet u shuda named it L - L33TSERV then these QHuggers wud go for it, they think as its a \'leight\' version its no good, damn u blind kids! Or maybe opers shud just make a brail version of L so you ..... can tell its just as good!

eviley said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

What about moving Q from one channel to another? A friend still is \"owner\" of a Q-bot in a channel and would like to move this Q to another channel..

fgmoenni said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

I think the limit of 70-100 is fare.. Smaller channels dont need Q. Good to see Q back so i can request it to my channel wich have average on 190.

Fall said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

i love aLL quakenet OPs :D but next time faster if you can :D THX

boeck said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

we have around 70 on average 90 - 100 on peaks but it says 2 weeks average and i know we have that :S

HeuF said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

wasnt it 25 Users in 2 Weeks ? or something smaller , like 15 Users ? Why 70 Users now ?

}Bow{Noneet said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

well, nice but the average is really to high... it should be about 50 idlers

{OCF}_CHIVAS said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

i think 70 idlers as an average is way to high, i think it should be more like 40 or something...

Resz0r said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

2 bad that the L don\'t remembers that my chan had over 150 in user peak for over 14 days :(

Ferr said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

btw, it is 2 many with 70 users i think... about 15-25 is enough.

Ferr said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

70 users 2 weeks... impossible...

Skrible said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

I think the old requirements must back ! 25 users is a right limit, users who say 100 oder 70 is ok, hace a chan with Q oder have so many Idler and wanna nick the people who does not meet the requirments! ! So IRCop pls the old and best requiermentsf or Q. My clan meet ht eold requeirments and we have waited a long time... and now ? no Q :(

zooyorkIRC said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

nice nice and how I request L???

noONE2k said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

[off topic] the trustrequest page is available again. does that mean we can request trusts again? :-) PS: nice work, quakenet. the 70 idler limit is fine imho.

n3v3rm1nd said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

hehe i need q :D

cxspider`off said on Tuesday 02 December 2003

i think 50 User would be in the future a well middle between the old and the new requirements :)

#151 nobody is interested in what you are thinking though. nice to see the q request up again good work staff :)

omg stevoo, u\'r favourite too? =O

h4Xx said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

Nice work Quakenet Staff. It\'s nice to see Q available for requests again, and fully automated this time, whiii :o) I also like the idea of the \'L to Q\' upgrade system. Keep it up! ;) And please ignore those who are crying about the requirements of Q. Let them be in their ignorance. I think it\'s just fine the way it is, now. Quakenet Quakenet you\'re the man \\\\o Quakenet Quakenet does things no other irc-network can o// whiiiiii \\o/\\o/\\o/

Whizzell said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

Stop whining about the requirements being set to high. Channels with an average userbase of 25-30 are absolutely NOT in the need of Q! Op 2 to 3 users you trust and no more, do not give away your auth data, secure your network with a simple firewall and do NOT click any links you don\'t trust. Being aware of these simple rules WILL hold your channel and your auth secure in 98,9% of all cases. If you want all your users to have voice, install an AutoVoice Script (although AutoVoice is bad...) :P

:((( i have forever 60-120 idlers and web so why dont Q , my web is www.quake-eu.org , before was 25 idlers and web :((((

Carlusha said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

lol @ 148 i needed 5 mins to recover from laughing =) besides that I ask myself why ppl cant just read the news first before posting bull**** it is said that the limit will be reduced bit by bit so why don\'t you just lean back and relax a little? it will certainly be further reduced once they are sure it works fine, it\'s better to slowly introduce a service and ensure its stability rather than exaggerate and blow it isnt it? and besides that no chan with less than 50 users is subject to overta

gj quakenet ;], why did that take so much time? :> but GJ FFS!? :))

louUUf said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

#155 \"install an AutoVoice Script (although AutoVoice is bad...)\" I tried to avoid posting here but autovoice scripts are better as it reduces the amount of +av flags neeeded in channels where L is present and no damage can be done by using one of these scripts, so really people dont need to be added into L or Q for that matter just the +ao users & i agree with others, 100 is way too high but will be lowered in good time so live with it people.

BGGGrilli said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

#159 I was talking about AutoVoice Scripts which voice everyone, not only special people, as they a) increase the traffic on a NetSync and b) are bad on text floods in your channel as +m only affects the Unvoiced. Voice is most commonly used as a status symbol (\" hey I got +av in #!!!1one 8>\") but in fact they don\'t need voice. I repeat this is only about Voice-Everyone-Who-Joins-Scripts ;)

Sp33d3r said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

omfg ... 50 i will understand that but 100 users ... ?

athrax said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

My clan exists 2 years. We dont kick inactive membs and most of them keep hanging around so our L is full with +ao now. We always met the old Q criteria but never requested one because we didn\'t need one (L did its job). Now our L is full and it would be easi if we could get a Q. Int he evening we have 110-120 idlers but can\'t get a Q becuz it drops during the night (few bnc`s) It would be nice if the average would drop, or if the average of top 5 hours of a day would be taken or so...

bzz-pack said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

@ #144 You must log in (be authed) to see and use the \"services\" link in the right upper menue for L request. without authing link is invisible. @ q-net staff big thx, 100 was a good limit, too many people think this is a status symbol, its just a tool ! btw, to increase the number of flags @ L to 50 would help a lot for all L users and will dramatically decrease whining :) or is this a resource hog problem ?! i reqest Q back in 3 seconds yesterday, n1. /me is happy

spoofi said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

@ #148 I guess it\'s just feedback that people give. I don\'t know why you allow comments on newspost if that\'s the attitude of qnet staff (consider all feedback \"whine\")? my 2 cents...

bzz-pack said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

@164 idd good idea, we wouldn`t need a Q if qnet would allow more flags on L ...

bzz-pack said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

LOL!! 100 is too high, 50 would be much more better, so please change it :

Azettaja said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

We need perform on #ex.team thx

50 User !

smue said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

Oh my god, why can\'t you noobs READ THE F*CKING UPDATES? \"LOL!! 100 is too high, 50 would be much more better, so please change it :<\". One day after they reduced it to 70. So, PLEASE READ THE UPDATES. Thanks QuakeNet staff.

r3Fl3X said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

Yeah great :) We are waiting so long for Q ! Now its also aviable ! N1 Qnet staff :) but know: Q @ 75 is much !

niLz-pg said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

We are very excited that Q is now requestable - well done Quakenet! Greets Opsio.de

milchbauer said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

To everyone who think that the-75-limit is too high, get L instead. You won\'t be needing Q. Q aint more status than L, and I don\'t think that you need more than a 30-userflag access either

bignicky3 said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

uuuhhh finaly....nice work ;>

Metalpower said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

nice done. :) The requriments are high, but okay, not that strech as the \"25-users request\" was(\'bout blabla hp fullfill my ass blabala). But the old one was better imo. I\'d like the 25-users which requrired a hp which showed diverse infos about the clan/community/organisation whatsoever. keep up the good work qnet-staff(even since i hate some of you most of all in the whole wide world) :)

s0ren said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

very nice, really ! Btw, are we able to move Q from a channel to another right now?

nufaN- said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

50 userZ plZ ! ;·)

bbazsy said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

If y0u only need 50 Idlers q would be available for everybody ... due to theses nice BNC performs o_O #e-aim pLz we need Q ;D no plz do not close that channel ;D just kidding :D hf and good work QuakeNet ;D

mY-NinJai said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

@#173 Not true, we always qualified for Q (old rules) but never asked this because we didn\'t need it and didn\'t care about the status (status ? :)). Now we (old clan, lots of inactives who still idle, so a lot of flags needed) do need one. Only have 100-120 idlers in evening, but more like 20-30 at night :(. We never reach 70 but we need 4-5 extra flags on L. (just increase allowed flags on L ?)

bzz-pack said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

Hello I have already a Q-bot on an old channel, how can I move it to my new channel ? Thanks

_Striker_ said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

sorry I don\'t search on the forum and I\'vs just find my answer : \"Please note: this new request system CANNOT be used to move Q\" Have to wait again :x But nice work dudes :)

_Striker_ said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

is ok with 100 i think ... there will be too much \"kiddy\" chans with Q when the requirements will be too low... so 100 is ok... 70 hmm sì ...but not more lower please...

dilor-rules said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

It´s good to have Q Back but a hundred idlers !? thats alot! You should change it to 25 or 50...

Welcome back Q :D

Nice. :)

rock-is-leet said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

its 70 atm but i think 50 is better =)

zhade said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

nice work , hope they will reduce the idlers to at least 50. =)

limey- said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

nice work @quakenet staff. It\'s good to see, that you can request TheQBot again. I don\'t want to whine about the limit of 100 or 70 or any limit, but please launch the web-based request system as soon as possible :)

spazza said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

Excellent, I have been waiting for Q to come back for ages. Altho currently all my channels have Q...hmm, what was I waiting for then....

Ap0kalipSe said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

is there anyway to check yur average idler stats?

heuf said on Wednesday 03 December 2003

You should update the Q-Faq or even refer to this News. The requirement of 70 users is ok I think, don\'t change it to less than 50 without adding some other requirements like there were before.

fx}{zYk said on Thursday 04 December 2003

Yeah \"gg, n1, 10q\" that\'s the greatest fucking news I\'ve heard all year... \"we have Q again!\". I\'m so fucking happy, my life -still- has no point. Seriously, is anyone else not just groping their own testicles at the thought? You can finally have the letter Q in your nicklist. WHOOPEY-FUCKING-DO! WHAT\'S THAT GEORGE? NO WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION? STFU, WHO CARES! WE HAVE SOME SHIT CALLED Q! IT SETS MODES AND SHIT JUST LIKE L DOES! EXCEPT IT MAKES MY PLAYGROUND CREDIBILITY GO HIGHER! Go
