I am actually quite embarrassed about the state of the server, what has happened is the dedicated server we bought before even releasing the beta's payment is now due by tonight (we had 2 days notice 2 days ago), and unfortunately I do not have the money at this time to pay for this month to run the server and collect donations to secure the next months.

This coupled with the spurt of DDoS and DoS attacks, (DoS counter-measures have been put in place, but the DDoS with massive botnets are unfortunately hard to prevent until we get protection) has made it hard to decide whether or not to let the server run from the time it was up until today when it would expire. I also did not want to open the PUS the first few days of the server for obvious reasons.

My reason for not dropping an immediate update for everyone is I was just simply semi-discouraged and frustrated about the situation, especially after iCe has left the development team, that I didn't know what do.

I would like to give my sincerest apology to everyone, I am currently in the process of trying to raise the money required for the server, which I hope I can pull together to get this great project back on track.

if i hadn't been scammed by private servers 3-4 times already i would might consider helping with the payment, also it seems to me very odd u waited up untill the last minute to pay for the dedi, either ur really irresponsible nor lieing, either why count me out.

Actually what happened was my O.S does not allow me to run a test server from my own PC with the files that I use, so we bought a dedicated server to use while we set up and configure the server before beta, which wasted 2 weeks, then we of course lost more time during the beta, and now payment is due. I was expecting to make enough money from the pus on the final 2 days to pay for the dedi, but due to the attacks was not able to make them.

If nothing positive to say, why say it at all?

.

Why are u using a 16gb server for a private ko server? Seems like an extreme overkill if you'd ask me. (not trying to flame, just wondering. i don't know which other applications ur running)

Could you tell us why Ice left the project? cause of these recent issues i presume?

Any guess on when you'll be able to give more information?

The reason we are running a 16gb server is because we had plans to run 2 other servers after the success of the first one, one being another farm server in the near future, and the other being a PK server.

As for why ice left the project, I will not disclose that information though you are more then willing to ask him

only has been 1 day np.

dude, he's not begging for money now is he? he's just giving information.
These devs haven't earned 1 cent out of this server atm, do u really think that breeze is enjoying the part where he tells us that there are some serious issues?

Me and my friends are still supporting originalko though

GL breeze, if u have any info about raising money/idea's please keep us informed

**Turbobox** · 02-28-2011, 08:41 PM

lol-.- so mutch hype for nothing.. yet another fail server. dudes start play Bulletstorm insted

**lifeson** · 02-28-2011, 09:05 PM

i knew this owner wasnt ready for this, no money... come on. kiddos and teenagers can't host servers. ya'll need money first before you can make money.

**Vincents** · 02-28-2011, 10:09 PM

I'm not really bothered by the comments, whether they be negative or positive - I'm bigger and more mature then that, though I wouldn't expect the likes of some of you to comprehend such a vibe, lol.

Anyways, I just came here to give an update on the state of the server, if you don't like it, leave the topic and don't reply, it's that simple -- no really, it's that simple.

**doob** · 02-28-2011, 10:17 PM

thanks again for the info.
Just keep us updated on any news

FearsNoOne · 02-28-2011, 10:25 PM

dang people get so pissed so soon, this dude is just trying to make the server lol

**ilovemyko1** · 03-01-2011, 01:02 AM

How is it a fail server? alot of owners would have given up by now... and you say he is begging for money... yet he turned down money previously in this topic...

superkip · 03-01-2011, 04:09 AM

Really some of you guys are just being dumb ...

1st of all its a private server and history learns us they have big troubles launching one. If ppl instead of flame and bitch just wait in peace and let the creators do there job. No ppl start flaming and saying fail server etc etc ... Then why are you still playing private servers/ following this topic. This topic is for ppl who are waiting to play on this server. Go talk to yourself if you just wanna flame.

Let the makers do there job and sort the shit out be patient play tetris or something in the meanwhile '-_-
