15 March 2003: Some players don't seem to be able to help themselves from cheating. Here is a shot of a_gelatinous_fluid caught in the act of sharking having exploited a hole on the Flughafen map. Needless to say, he was kicked and banned as a result.
EA's recently released 2.5 retail patch has now fixed this map hole as well as several others.

There are still many players out there who don't seem to (or want to) observe the 'no rocket' policy. Any players found using rockets risk being kicked and banned from the server. Feel free to report rocket offenders by submitting a screenshot of them 'in the act' to admin@online-assault.com.

21 February 2003: A few people have been asking why rockets are not disabled on the server. Unfortunately, BarrysWorld do not currently support this feature. Until this position changes it falls to the admin team and player pressure to keep the server rocket-free. We'll keep you posted on any developments.

12 January 2003: A number of significant changes were introduced today ...
Firstly, after running for six months as BarryServer - _PUBLIC NoSnowy NoRockets, the server name has been changed to BarryServer - MoH DeathMatch. This change has been made to give the server a more recognisable title. To coincide with the name change, we have a new map rotation! R02 is now up and running on the server, mixing nine of the best maps from Allied Assault and Spearhead. Lastly, the default game time limit has been increased from 20 to 25 minutes.

5 January 2003: Community page added. The idea behind this is to establish a kind of Hall of Fame detailing all of the regular visitors to the server. There are lots of players who play on a daily basis so I expect this list to grow steadily. If you want to be included make yourself known to any of the server administrators.
