It pains me to say this, but we're running out of funds quickly. Unless we achieve close to our monthly goals in donations I'm going to have to pull the plug. We cannot afford this any longer. While it saddens me to have to say this, we're really hurting for cash right now. I haven't been around much lately. I'm just not invested in FPS games anymore. They aren't tickling my pickle. So we have a couple options here. We can either close down most of what we run here and just run a server or two to maintain the games you want to play, or we close everything down until we're in a better financial situation. Between my cost of living and the server fees, I have $.11 in my bank account for this month. Literally. I can't manage this anymore. So, unless something changes, we're going to need to shut the majority of the servers down and run one official server as well as those rented from us. The economy is killing me. I can't even pay my bills this month. I know everyone has been impacted by this financial situation, and so I'm not looking for handouts. I just want you to consider the options and help me make some decisions. Discuss.

FFFUUUUU-- That's a bummer. I'm sorry to hear about your situation. I offer moral support. That's pretty much all I got. A break wouldn't be that bad.. not the end of the world. Take your time to recoup, get paid once your next summer gig pops up. Then maybe you can implement the new website as a triumphant return? That is assuming the new website is complete by then.

Sending in this month's donation tomorrow morning. Sorry for the crappy situation. Do what you have to do. The clan will back you up with whatever you decide to do. However, an existence on some level is better than none at all. You should be more like Cantrip.  Twitchy: "I pulled a Cantrip . . ." GivePeaceAChance: "If the Tempest had nipples, I'd pinch that shit." Xylicon: "I'm about to deliver my [Richard] in your face for posting that stupid shit. " WDF?: "He keeps reaming me... night after night... I'm rather sore." GivePeaceAChance: "OMG MY NIPS ARE HARD" llenta: "cantrip, you fail!!!" Filliam H. Muffman: "i'm on top of dick"

I agree that existing on some level (game-wise) is better than dropping off the map entirely. I will happily kick in more $$ next week. I'm gearing up for move to GA in May but I'll have some down time in a couple of weeks or so...
do what you have to in order to survive.. that's the #1 priority here... I'm sure most of us are more than willing to help out as much as we can but as you said, we're all in this same leaky damn boat (economy).. start bailin peoples!!!!

Holy crap. I had no idea it had gotten this bad. I'm sorry to hear you're dealing with so much, Whut :(
I agree with everyone here. An existence of some sort is better than nothing. Temps 1 and 6 are roughly the same thing, maybe close 1 and we'll keep 6 going? I rarely play on 2, so I wouldn't be too hurt seeing it go. Other people might disagree though...
I wish I could say something helpful, but I have no clue what to do beyond that. :/
But what Cantrip said is correct: you know the clan will stay, no matter how many servers we have! wrote:{pDs} TitaniumPhoenix: We're Mexican. I say we pull a razor outta our titties and cut them!
[CMS]Noobina: omg thats where you keep yours too?! wrote:{pDs} TitaniumPhoenix: You mean that's not you in my titties? THEN WHO IS IT? D:
{pDs} Razor: I don't know but I would imagine if you push them together you would probably hear AFLAC!!!

Well I would not like to see 2 go, and I hope to be able to 'rent' it from Whut by the end of April, just to keep it goin... we can at least try to keep Phoenix's #6 and #2 running for a while, and hopefully things will get better soon.. it kinda has to :-)
