SFI is proud to have continuously provided public
game servers
for the nolfing community to play on since 2003.
Doomsday and Deathmatch servers run 24/7. SFI's way of supporting the community.
We run other servers for special purposes as well (custom maps)

SFI Server Rules
**make sure you read through them**
We ask our guests to please observe the following guidelines to avoid being
kicked or banned.
PROFANITY - Children play on our servers. Keep your language clean at
all times.
CHEATS - Cheats of any kind are not allowed. Play fair.
HARASSMENT - Have respect for your fellow players.
VERBAL FIGHTING & CLAN BASHING - Take it elsewhere.
Cheating -
Do not take advantage of map flaws. Avoid restricted areas that
the mapmaker did not intend for you to venture into during games. This
includes shooting through walls.
Suggested Etiquette
CHAT KILLING
Permissible in the Doomsday server unless it is clear someone is giving
lessons.
In Deathmatch, move on to the next target if you come across someone chatting.
Accidents do
happen, so a quick "sorry" helps to smooth ruffled feathers.
There is a glitch in NOLF2, so if the
player is moving, frag them regardless
of the '!' floating over their head.
SPAWN KILLING & SPAWN TRAPS
Doomsday is war, so if you cannot protect your base, spawn killing will happen.
Better players, however, know when to pull back to allow the other team to regroup. In Deathmatch, killing
someone that has just spawned without giving them a chance to be aware of your presence is considered tacky.
An exception is on the smaller maps where it cannot be avoided during a crowded server.
Camping at or placing traps/tags at spawning points is a cheap tactic and could result in a person getting booted from the server.
Don't do it.

CLAN RECRUITING
SFI asks that our servers not be used to actively recruit for other clans. We
are willing to help
out other clans with renting out server time, having
practices with them and in various other
ways, but we ask those clans that are
in a recruiting phase to host their own games during
such time.
SFI reserves the right to ban anyone for not following these rules. Report any
incidents to
Eliteone at
e1@sficlan.net, Belladonna or notify an online SFI
clan member.
To book time on the Bookable Server contact BellaDonna at
belladonna@sficlan.net.
Booking
is on a first come first serve basis so be sure to set up the time
well in advance.
Amendment added 7-31-05
CHEATING
From now on, anyone caught discussing on the servers how to use or download cheats will be banned from the server.
Meaning talking about hacks, editing files, aimbots, etc.
You can still point out map flaws, and learn how others use them, but please don't actually go shooting off map because abuse of that will get you banned as always.
Also, those who ruin the game for others by constantly making cheating accusations will be booted or banned. If you think someone is cheating, contact the admin here about it. DO NOT accuse anyone of cheating in the server!
