EQEmu losing hosting

[sfisque]

if push comes to shove, i offer my pipe for hosting, i have 3 public addresses that i'm not using right now ( i have commercial grade cable model access that provides 5 dedicated static addresses, of which 1 is my web/email server and another is my eqemu server.

obviously a dedicated rack situation would be optimal, but worse case, this would buy time until such a situation appeared.

if anyone in the dev team is near portland, oregon, we could meet over a beer and discuss issues/details/etc.

anyway, count me among the crowd that would be most upset if this "all went poof".

Got some OT for this check incoming... I will try and throw $100-$300 IF I can figure out the damn pay-pal thing... never used it and up until now have NOT ever been interested in it...But I SURE AS HELL dont want to see EQEmu gone. I am like Tech, in that, I dont play much any more but I like to set up a server when the emu changes just so I can come here and help support other people to get their problems solved....

P.S. BTW what kind of figures are we talking about here to get re-located?

I love the project. I used to love EQ, but that time has long come and gone. I still play from time to time, but only for testing purposes, or to blow off some GM style steam (Come here Sleeper, you *******.) I like making a difference, as why I am writing my guide. In the past month I have gotten about 15 thank yous for the guide and I am just simply amazed with it. I like helping, when and where I can. I am all for keeping things going for us here, although I dont play. Its just the concept behind it that I want to stay alive.

I like sfisque idea. Something like this will buy us some more time. We could just host the fourms there for the moment. Update SF with the latest compiled binary for downloading. I have a awardspace site up so I could put my server guide up there for veiwing for the moment.

All we really need mainly keep things somewhat moving for the time being. If the loginserver is down why we find a new host, thats fine by me. Its better to lose things for a little bit, then all together. Buying more time is the key right now at this moment if we can't raise enough money to move everything at once.
