Yea well... I'm in highschool and I don't have a job. I don't understand about the servers thing. Do your companies let you run the server, do you have to pay, or what?
How do you get a server and who provides it?

It would be cool but I'm far from getting an office job.

All the good things we enjoy are donated by gracious folks who for the love of the game have went beyond the call of duty to bring you this wonderful place we call THE VILLE.

It seems that it would be hard to get your boss to agree to something like this. Imagine...

ROB: Umm... boss... I wanna talk...

BOSS: About what?

ROB: Well, there's this game I play and-

BOSS: HA! A GAME! GET OUT OF MY OFFICE YOU CRETIN!

ROB: (starts crying)

BOSS: Oh, I'm sorry, what can I do for you?

ROB: I was wondering if you would let me use the server during the off-hours...

And it would go from there. Maybe his boss would laugh at him again

Goldenspy, I would imagine it more like this

ROB: Uh boss, I have this problem...

BOSS: Oh do go on... (reaches his hand under the desk, and slowly inches it toward the silent alarm button)

ROB: There's this game I play and I need a server, to play with my friends

BOSS: Oh really? I can see how that is a problem. (starts furiously tapping the silent alarm button)

ROB: Well you see...and...oh... (Two heavily armed guards walk in and drag Rob out of the office) Thanks anyways...I'll see you on monday! Hey not the hair!

I think something like this

Rob: Hey boss I've got this cool stuff on the computer come check it out.

Boss: Alright Rob give me a few seconds (presses cancel emergency button)
Let's go.

Rob; now have a seat and use these keys to move around.

Boss: Ok I hope this is good we spent a lot of money on these things and we hardly use them.

Rob: Ok here it comes...alright run over and get some gernades..

Boss: Gernades??

ROB: yeah get 2 bags we dont want to run short.
Ok now sneak up behind that thing we call an SG and press that button....BOOOMMM...

Boss: OMFG Rob that was unbelievable...Lets do it again.....7 hours later.....Rob I wish there was some way to share this with our friends....heavy sigh...

ROB: With a twinkle in his eye...There may be a way.....
