Offering to administrate TPG ARK server

**TheGlew** · 11-14-15, 12:02 AM

Hello! Some of you know me but some may not. I have been a member of TPG for nearly a year now. I have played on the TPG Battlefield 4 server since the release of BF4. I've become fairly acquainted with Maximus, Option Hunter, Vizuvius, and a few other TPG members over the past 18 months. I have played on your Ark server regularly for a couple weeks now and have had a blast! There have been some minor issues with server lag and delayed updates. I would like to offer my services as a server administrator for the TPG Ark server. I have managed my own dedicated servers for Rust, Space Engineers, Minecraft, and a few others and feel that I am educated and skilled enough to operate as an admin for any game server. I would not like any in-game powers/privileges but rather the ability to backup/restore, restart, and update the server as needed. I work from home and am available almost always and find myself and my tribe mate are the only ones online during the hours I typically play. I would be available to administrate the server during its low population hours and be available to respond to any emergency 24/7. Please let me know if this is something you are interested in. If not no hard feelings and thanks for hosting the best servers for all of my favorite games! Smooches

I'm sure they appreciate your offer and time on the server but I believe only TPG High Admins have the ability/authorization to perform updates, etc. I think the reason is because the box that runs the ARK server runs a bunch of other stuff as well and they'd have to give blanket access which is something they are hesitant to do, with good reason. So thanks for your offer but probably not gonna happen.

Generally speaking, that's how it has worked in the past. The exceptions being maybe one of the last two BF games (some mids were given slightly elevated priveleges to use an app I think Kanati wrote) and COD4 (no admin tools for while, so rcon only).

Who knows what the future holds though?
