Game Over

[Vash]

I will stop paying tons of money for the root server.

I will stop running DreamPing.de.

Let me explain you guys the reasons. I'm running game servers for this clan since 2006. Don't imagine how much money I payed till now... let me say it short: alot. And I'm tired now. I don't have time for server administration -> I don't even want to do that anymore!

This clan donated like 1/100 of what I payed. It's just a shame. I don't want to "wait" for more donations anymore.... here is the result: The root server goes offline. I'm just done with this WASTE of money.

What you can do, if you want to save your gaming sessions:

1. You (all clan members) need to donate atleast 30 Euros (all together) per month if you want to keep the current root server.
2. Someone takes the power of my server (my choice only, don't ask) and administrates everything -> I won't do that anymore. I'm just here if you have some questions.
3. I won't cut off everything if you guys can donate just 20 or 15 Euros in 1 month of 5. I think you got it.

OR ALTERNATIVELY

I get a new root server, which is way cheaper (around 30 Euros per month) and you guys donate atleast 15 to 20 Euros (all together) per month. Then you would have lower monthly costs, but almost the same gaming, just without that huge amount of servers. (I think like 1 or 2 game servers per divison)

What you would have to do:

1. You (all clan members) need to donate (as I said above) between 15 to 20 Euros (all together) per month (of 30, I pay the rest). Important: For the new server (which is way cheaper) you will need to carry out an one-time setup fee of 100 Euros.
2. Someone takes the admin powers to take care of the root server. (My choice, don't ask)

Your choice, TeamXtreme members. If you can't donate, you can't play on game servers.

A few words about DreamPing.de: It goes offline, because it's not making enough money and it's taking too much time. I'm just done with it.

I forgot one more thing: The TX webserver (including this forum/home/warzone etc. is not being touched by this decision.

[S.T.O.R.M.]

So if everybody would pay 1 Euro/month we could rescue the root server. I'd be in, who else?

And please don't post this bs alâ I want to give you money but my parents...

One more thing:

If you guys decide to donate (doesn't matter if you want to keep the current server or want the new one) I will start a donation status topic.

Like: 12/20 Euros. (8 more to go) So everyone keeps the overview.

[SAMO]

I promise I will give money!

At least 1€ per month I think everyone can do that. I'll do

[TheSold3y]

Well this decision was clear and we had to see this coming. Everyone whos able to pay money for the server should to it. Would be great. Will the TeamSpeak 3 server going down too?

[Vash]

Will the TeamSpeak 3 server going down too?

Since it is running on the root server: a clear yes.

[Vash]

One more thing: If you go the "1 Euro for everyone"-way, you will need someone who will organise everything. (I will NOT do that!)

If the "1 Euro for everyone"-way is chosen, you will have two ways for donating:

If you want to donate via PayPal, just send it to my PayPal account via the donation link on forums.

If you want to pay via bank transfer DO NOT send me 1 Euro donations.... I don't want to check my bank account just for 1 Euro donations every month.... this is stupid. Everyone transfers to one person and then this person transfers the FULL amount to my account.

Your choice. I will not even move 1 finger for this.

holy...

well, id pay this 1€, too. but i wont be the guy organising all this. so... who wanna do it?

If we're going to chose this option, we should seriously do it every half a year then. Means paying 6€ in the beginning, and the after 6 months again. Otherwise it would be annoying just with 1€ a month.

[GeniuZ]

i know.
btw:

if we keep the root weve got atm, i want TWO PRIVATE CS:S SERVERS!
right now we aint got servers and its rly needed...

Not here.
0.00€ till the end of this month.

This way you/we could save a lot of money.

So this would be an option. We should open a topic where we write down the ppl who can donate (actually everybody should <.<)..

[Judge]

This means EVERYONE should donate... not always the same guys such as DC-17 (who was probably the one who delayed the time when this topic would came out).
Everyone = every members from Private to Colonel or any other ranks...

I also have to apologize... I have been really busy in the last weeks and I think I should have seen that coming. As I promised you, I will send money very soon (in fact when I will receive my money from work).

PS: Vash's decision is quite understandable. He is paying for those servers for a very long time although he does never play on them...

[Skcorn]

Was just a matter of time but I´m in for donation, no question, you all know.

[Lionheart]

Im in aswell, for sure.
It was clear that Vash had to make this decision, I totally understand it.

1. You (all clan members) need to donate atleast 30 Euros

That means that Vash is till paying for this server, we just give the "donations", which should have been given to make it alright for him to rent this server...
