Ok, Im here from my clan, and we are upgrading our servers to suit the more modern needs of the gaming community.

Specs are:

Not being a representative if Mammoth Media, but
having several years of experience with running game-
servers in Linux, I'd suggest you should go with
whatever distribution you are already familiar with,
provided you don't hate it. As long as the distribution
doesn't prevent you from manually compiling the
kernel, it should be fine. I don't know any regular
distros that prevents you from doing this.

Debian _may_ be a bit shady at times, though, since
it lags behind most other distros in updating packages
to newer versions. This may cause problems related
to requirements on glibc.

any other thoughts on this, as much input as possible would be appreciated.
