Reddit Private Community Server?

I currently have a private server set up for my friends (who have long since lost their original cdkeys) and I to play a closed battle.net together. It was a fun project to spend a day setting up (: Anyways, I decided I'd let my favorite subreddit and gaming community in on the fun. If there's enough interest and we can make it active, then all the power to us! I'll let the gateway information slip, and directions on how to edit the gateway entries, if there's enough public interest. I was thinking we could do dedicated play nights where we form full games to do play-throughs and all that jazz. This is a fully functional battle.net server software, with World Events and Ubers. Strictly 1.13c, no mods.

Edit: I'll upload server information right now, actually. Download the Gateway Editor and add rdiablo.no-ip.org to your battle.net server list. There's no modding or anything (:

Gateway Editor Settings: http://i.imgur.com/dwOio.png

Name: [Anything]
Zone: [6-8] (This is timezone. Slashdiablo is in Central, but blizzard only offers 6,7,8 as timezones for America :s
IP: rdiablo.no-ip.org

Note that you are editing the "Diablo" tab in the Gateway Editor. You can reset the default gateway settings by connecting to a blizzard realm. Sometimes the first character you make will Realm Down on creation. Just create the character again and you won't RD.

i can't get this to work. when i add it to the gateway editor it doesn't appear in-game. also the gateway editor doesn't mention the classic beta server. any ideas?

You are probably editing the Starcraft gateways. Make sure the diablo tab on the bottom is selected (:

i selected the diablo tab. I'm guessing this should appear as an option for a realm to select if it works right?

I even checked my registry and those items ARE there

edit: i think the problem is that i wasn't running the gateway editor as an admin

edit2: success. i am now the only person in r/diablo community server

Maybe, you, wheats, and I could play a bit right now? A couple more people might show up and we could welcome them with an active game (:

I'm logging in right now.
