Re: IC hosting problems? Mods contact me please

I haven't had a chance to speak to any mods about this yet, been hanging around on IRC with no luck. I'm afk for the next couple of hours, but contact me on IRC please.

I logged onto ICQ for the first time in years this afternoon and noticed Stefan was online. Messaged him and got chatting for a bit. I'll paste it here, but the bit towards the end is what's most concerning.

[arsbury (01:04 PM)]: hey Stefan!
[arsbury (01:04 PM)]: long time no speak... remember me? tongue
[arsbury (01:08 PM)]: you there?...
[Stefan (01:09 PM)]: Hi Arsbury, yes I remember you.
[Stefan (01:09 PM)]: How are you?
[arsbury (01:09 PM)]: big_smile
[arsbury (01:09 PM)]: i'm good thanks! you?
[arsbury (01:09 PM)]: i left the game for a bit after modding but came back last year.
[arsbury (01:09 PM)]: lots of changes! I've noticed you're finally letting people help out with the development
[arsbury (01:10 PM)]: but there does seem to be a lot of issues with lag and poor performance recently though
[arsbury (01:10 PM)]: don't know if the mods have spoken to you about it or not
[arsbury (01:10 PM)]: apparently you're difficult to get ahold of!
[Stefan (01:13 PM)]: That's probably due to the crap servers I've been renting.
[Stefan (01:13 PM)]: My contract expires at the end of April and I'm probably not going to renew.
[arsbury (01:13 PM)]: yikes
[arsbury (01:13 PM)]: You serious? yikes
[Stefan (01:16 PM)]: Yes it isn't worth my time and money anymore.
[Stefan (01:16 PM)]: The game costs more to run than what I make from it.
[arsbury (01:16 PM)]: Have you told the mods?
[arsbury (01:17 PM)]: There's still a few hundred players who care about this game though and I'm sure there are people who are willing to buy the game from you. Just name a price?
[Stefan (01:18 PM)]: I've got to run now. Speak to you later Arsbury.
[arsbury (01:18 PM)]: What?!
[arsbury (01:19 PM)]: Grrrrrrrrrrrrr

If he's not responding on IRC (I haven't managed to get him to answer my PMs), I'll give you his ICQ number.

Was a good read but did he ever use Stefan as his alias on IRC? tongue

True, but you only left minutes. You need to leave hours in between replies, or even days! tongue

Arby: A very strict mod, reminds me of a fat redneck who drives a truck around all day with a beer in one hand. I hated this guy at the start, however, I played a round in PW with him where he went as an anonymous player. Our fam got smashed up and everyone pretty much left. Arby stayed around and helped out the remaining family. At the end of the round he revealed himself.... My views on him have changed since. Your a good guy.....
