VOTE NOW! Implement Silent MOD
-----------------------------------
Alright, usually these sort of decisions (major ones at that) are reserved for IoW Admins only.    I thought about that, then I thought I should let the members vote, then it occurred to me that we do have regulars who frequent here, and without you (the regulars) our server is really not that special.

So, I wanted to include all members of the greater IoW family, including regulars and registered forum publics to express their opinion of the Silent MOD that we've been testing out for the last 4-6 weeks.

If you haven't played it, let me give you a few major features:
Based on ETPUB 9 - similar feel and speedHitboxes are forced to g_hiboxes "31" setting - the so called "improved" and more accurate hitboxes.New gun - the Ppsh available to a few classes - carries a 40 round clip and can do a lot of damage.Trip-mines added for engineers - adds a whole new element of defense even inside buildings.Tons of great new HUD features, including a K/D/Spree display (I love it)Improved UI look and feelBetter fireteam notifications - such as where members are, and what class they are respawning toNative widescreen support

This is by no means an exhaustive list.


For reference - we are currently running ETPUB 8 on our server.  We toyed with upgrading to ETPUB 9, but development has stopped on ETPUB completely, and it seems that Silent is picking up the torch and carrying it forward.  This is good for us, we can expect bug fixes and more improvements in the future.

So, please vote now.
