Hi all. The future of this forum and the server itself is unclear to me. It seems like both are intact and not in danger, but as a backup, when QAW server is dead and I'm gaming, I play at 108.61.21.93. Multiple clanners and regs play here too. I just don't want to see things get shut down here without notice and not see your victim-y faces again. This is where many of us will be. Most of you know our dedication to the clan and the server, and I WILL be in QAW server as long as there's a populace, give or take 20 mins Nothing is changing that we know of. But the future is uncertain as I said, so this is precautionary. I hope that we can have a place to meet while this game is still alive. Freezer tequila shot for each of you.. guess I'll get started. I'm not speaking for the clan, just my thot for 11/29/18.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, when I'm gaming I'd likely be there anywhere from 1200 Pacific, till Steiner joining QAW at roughly 1500, but I usually start checking QAW at 1400 intermittently. I play as Juicy or Pimp. tequila

There is also some QAW regs action at the OF server which I have found a little more enjoyable than the FA server in terms of overall "nice-ness" of players.
Neither the FA or OF server really compare to the QAW vibe but I haven't really found another server that does, so unless Macwolf creates a replacement server those might have to do.
Honestly I will probably just not really play much anymore though once the Originals server disappears. I enjoy the relaxing repetitive nature of the knowing the original maps and I don't really like a lot of the custom maps on other servers.

I mean by a lot of standards the server is still busy during the PM hours, for a game that's 13+ years old. Maybe I'm just in denial but it seems to that there's plenty of life here and the community we have is very dedicated. I'd hope if the "powers that be" decide to call it quits they would relinquish control to the clan members that are still active.. also it never hurts to donate! That being said obviously it's a responsibility to run all this stuff and I greatly appreciate all the efforts that have gone in to keeping this thing alive. Maybe if it were to be shutting down we could keep it running by funding it amongst ourselves? Perhaps this is just wishful thinking I also play on OF and FA occasionally and agree that they don't quite measure up. I came back to ET a little over a year ago and have pretty much solely played at QAW since because it's the best server with the best people. I enjoy the game but I enjoy it because I'm playing with all of YOU. (sap alert) See you on the battlefield.

Is funding a problem?

There's a lack of communication to where I felt it necessary to post my original post. I simply don't know anything about the fundamentals and future of the server, nor does anyone else who you see regularly that I know of. The point is there's no info from anyone, so I don't know. The clan web address was cancelled with no word that I know of. I would just hate to lose contact with you all.
Ton: what's the IP? I don't WANT to play elsewhere either. I just don't play anything else really. I MIGHT play through (US) Final Fantasy 3 (Japan 5 or 6 or whatever --the one with TERRA)
Log: I don't know the financials of the server beyond what I've donated. Officially and to be clear, things are good, and don't plan on any changes. There have been some noticeable changes, and I don't know what they mean.
King: There's no concrete slab foundation thingies under the pretty, appointed kitchen. Architect is on assignment indefinitely.
This took me like an hour to actually send with all my changes. Al Pastor tacos though so whatever. cheers!

OF is 68.232.172.16:27960
I think the FA servers are generally more populated at all times than OF but like I said I kind of like the people at OF a bit better.
Assuming the server goes poof one day I would imagine the forum will still just sit here since it's free, so we could at least probably form like voltron here to stay in touch and find a new place to play or post pictures of our wives.

I think its more of "Interest" problem, the game has been out for a while and the only severs with decent traffic nowadays are those with custom maps+spam mods, Personally I dont find them enjoyable at all ... getting blasted by panzers or mortars every 5 seconds was never my thing lol. As mentioned by the guys in previous responses probably the most acceptable options are silent based servers such as OF or FA silent, other than that you can get easily frustrated by the gameplay or people attitude.

We could just continue gaming right here, on this message board.
You'll just inform others of your location on a command map, and what class you're playing.
If you planted mines, keep the locations secret, unless an enemy stole your pants.

QAW server is like my second home. I don't know if any other server would do. I'd give one front tooth to keep this one around.

Seems like there is probably enough interest to keep the band together and since nobody really knows what the status currently is, maybe we can just all convene here if it ceases to exist one day and figure out how to proceed?

Yes, i think so... I think many of us just love playing together (at least I do)... so, I'm just happy.
