Some of you might have noticed how slow the MOB Home Page and Vent Status Page have been lately. This has been primarily due to the use of ServerSpy for reporting our server status.

We have now switched to Game-Monitor for this function. A big "thank you" goes out to Steel for updating the HTML code so that it comes up much quicker and also includes the status of all MOB servers.

Game-monitor probably didn't reply because they consider their xml feed as a "make it look anyway you want it" plan. You can even add the map pictures and everything.

Problem with this is (Old Man Mike and I have been playing with the xml feed) that you have to have some sort of xml parser. And then on top of this, you have to build your output block. And etc, etc. Translation -- major work.

Game-monitor does offer quite a number of skins for both blocks and buttons. What I put on these web pages are actually sig buttons. Pretty decent for very little effort, lol.
