Indeed, Hamachi isn't exactly useful as IM software, it is mostly just useful for the LAN simulated environment. If you want a place to message me, Discord is a good option if you have it. That is probably the best way to get in contact with me, either that or just sending a message here.

Don't worry about getting busy at all. My life pretty much consists of constant noise making it impossible to do my main hobby, recording, since getting a proper noise gate seems to not be an answer based on my inability to get it working right. I essentially live with a rather loud person that loves to sing and bang on things at all hours of the day, making it pretty much impossible to get a break unless they leave the house, which is only done on weekends. Then you get weekends like this, where I had to do work for my guitar teacher while having him bug me about various details to the point that it was impossible to record anyway. Trying to write this message, I got a power outage due to them and also a phone call just asking about eggs. I can't be left alone. This is miserable for someone who needs isolation to relax; I just want silence and the ability to work on Quake content, but the world rarely lets me do it. This week pretty much feels like a waste, because it was, and I have to hope next weekend will give me a few hours. Then people wonder why I am so miserable.

Regardless, I am still around, and definitely try to continue when I can. I won't be stopping any time soon, these issues are nothing new and I work around them, it just is depressive to have things be so limited. Most people get to play games for hours upon end, meanwhile I have to hope for the few rare hours on a weekend. After all, I don't have much reason to play without recording, the two are mostly synonymous outside of stuff like the server. And yes, Vorknkx is still around, he even jumped on the server a couple times since you last played.

Oh definitely, feel welcome to do such. The previous server ended up having some issues; I tried reinstalling Hamachi only to realize I was being booted out of my own server. The issue was that Hamachi was somehow being loaded before my other networks, meaning it was being overwritten somehow and that me having an internet connection prevented anyone from joining the server. Since then I have worked on cleaning up the networks, of which I had a lot not in use, in the hopes of it not happening again. Apparently these sort of things happen with Hamachi based on online information, I just don't really have much of a good alternative, and at least when it does work it seems to work right. Granted, I didn't get to test a lot of VPN software, the time people had to even test server stuff was very limited, so it became a matter of just trying to jump to the first thing that appeared to work. I would love to get something more reliable, but it just isn't a possibility with people constantly busy. So yeah, I have a new server you will need to join. Same information as last time, but the name is now Quakewikia Redux. Has been working for a bit now and has maintained itself with some people.

I am quite glad, I felt the previous description made sense, but had some implications it shouldn't have had, plus as mentioned sounded almost too technical with words like "level".
