I am proud that no matter what f*ck up myself and Paul have made we have always managed to recover

[kalyse]

I think Im just proud that Ive managed to develop my Web Admin Panel considering i had little PHP knowledge when I started.

 

 

 

I might do some screenshots eventually, but Ive been working on it flat out for like 3 months

[Daersun]

Im proud of the network we have built, using over 11 diffrent teir1 backbones

[Monk]

I'm proud that we use our own BGP AS number.

 

I'm proud that I wrote all of our backend stuff.

 

I'm proud that I was able to get awesome deals on catalyst 6503's w/ sup2, plus 3550-48-EMI's

 

I'm proud that I was able to get tier1 bandwidth so cheap.

 

I'm proud that we don't buy peering, we buy transit directly from the tier1's

[Monk]

Level3, Savvis, and MCI

[kalyse]

Well, its been another 6 months and I think it needs a bump so people can reflect on the last 6 months worth of development in your company!

 

 

What have you done recently?

[Todd Holley]

I am proud of the fact we have 2 locations and are adding another.

 

I am proud we are adding 6 more supported games.

 

I am proud we got 12 server orders last night.

 

[jbiloh]

Kalyse,

 

To answer your question:

 

We launched ColoCrossing.com - the Dedicated/Colo division of VSNX.

 

We added multiple Cisco 4948's to our Chicago Network

 

We turned up AT&T connectivity in Chicago

 

We launched a new Velocity website (http://www.velocity-servers.net)

 

After Gameservers.com, continue to operate one of the largest game server networks in North Amerca.

 

 

We're doing alright : )

[HGN-Daniel]

I'm proud that we finally released our website after 6 months of waiting!

[kalyse]

Its a nice looking website.

 

Thats what I like the most about invision-gaming, the website.

 

http://www.invision-gaming.co.uk

Its taken 13 months to develop and should be completely finishd in a few weeks.

 

Just need to finsih off the client profiling and thats it.

 

Things on there that I especially like is:

The graph that shows the people connected to network.

The customated billing system, 100% unique in house coded.

The support system, again 100% in house

The purchase pages. http://www.invision-gaming.co.uk/pricing/game-servers.html

 

Im constantly looking for ways to improve any aspect of the site and Im pleased with the progress over the last 12 months.

[HGN-Daniel]

Ah, looks nice! Unfortunately, we don't have any staff that is good enough at PHP/MYSQL to develop some of the more advanced features we plan to release. So, we have to rely on freelance coders and groups such as IMG

[kalyse]

O, I add another one,

 

I just realised I have managed to optimise terms:

 

games server hosting

counter strike provider

 

For the first page across all major search engines.

 

Ive been trying to do this for the past 6 months so its quite a big accomplishment.

 

Now onto 'game servers' which we're 12th for atm for google uk

I learnt all the skills needed to create the website. It was the first PHP project I have done.

 

Im sure if you have time you could learnt to, its a great language and easy to pick up.

Well I know PHP, but I personally don't feel I would be ready to take something that big on mainly because of the security issues. As you all may know "hackers" are very resourceful and I wouldn't want to be blamed for looking over a flaw in my coding. One of our main goals is to keep our client's information secure, so we're willing to pay a little bit extra to keep it in the proper hands. And I doubt Brian would trust me with something like that!

[jbiloh]

Daniel -

 

We've got a nice PHP script for total players on the network, that graphs each particular game server use, etc. If you're interested we could probably give it to you.

 

-- When are we going to finally pickup some of your colo business? Our Chicago facility is ready and waiting..

[tonton]

Jon we are making a flash one should be ready in a couple of days. When the mouse rolls over it, it shows the infos about the network

[HGN-Daniel]

Well Aaron and Brian usually handle that, but don't worry they're still taking you into consideration they just need to get something completed before they can move anywhere.

[jbiloh]

I'm sure we can work the numbers to ensure that its a money-saving decision. AT&T, Level3, MCI, and Savvis - possibly the best Chicago based network in operation today.

 

As for that script, its tied right into TCAdmin's MYSQL database - so you never have to update it manually. Every 12 hours its pulls the servers your currently hosting and updates the backend. Very handy. Let me know if you'd like it.

[HGN-Daniel]

Well we don't use TCAdmin sadly (We registered because of the thread concerning us a few months ago.) Its not that they don't like your offers, its just that they really can't move at the moment until something is completed (From what Aaron said, should be in a couple months or so...)

Jon, hope I don't come across as rude here but whats the chances of grabbing that? I've been after something like that for a long time

 

Kind Regards

[DougK94]

I think many would like it

I coded something a while ago but took it down last week after I removed the whole downloads center on my site.

 

It worked with mysql and you had to manually input IPs though, rather then a text file.

 

I use it on my site for this:

http://www.invision-gaming.co.uk/servers/

 

Im sure I could find it somewhere if you are genuinely interestest, its not a script in a bottle though, and you will have to do some work to get it fully operational.
