I think even they were to even just say like, "Hey, were not gona ask for money but yes it is possible if enough people donate we could get some kind of anti-ddos thing and the servers would be up again" I think even if they just said something like that, without giving a #, people would still donate. I would if I knew it would bring the servers back up and prevent this from happening again.

No exchanging real life money for items, your playing this for free, if you want that to continue you may have to donate.

I agree a number isn't neccessary, just an idea that if we reached number x servers would work again, or if its not a problem that can be resolved quickly by cash.

Hosting companies usually have a guaranteed against ddos package. Typically they are lots more expensive though. In the end it's going to come down to hosting options/pricing. If the person has big enough pipes they will almost always win sadly.

exchanging rl money for items in game.... Brilliant. That would RUIN the game!

Paying for a valid solution. Priceless.

Any Dev input would be much appreciated.

Whether its a Co-Lo or a managed server the provider they use offers DDoS protection at the lowest package levels.

Beor 04-06-2010 08:48 PM

id donate a few hundred to get this thing up and running

xorbier 04-06-2010 08:52 PM

Oh developers. Sounds like we have the money. Let's do this! :D

Apparently I'm addicted after finding this server a mere two weeks ago. I want back in!!
