Is PayPal acceptable? I could donate a lump some every-so-often. I get paid every other Friday, about $350 a paycheck after taxes, etc.. |

What is the best option for FT Classic. It is an individually owned and operated server even thought it is part of the FT community. The survival of the server is what is important here. | ||

Honestly. I would prefer if Alex continued to maintain the server in his current capacity. The rest of us would merely pick up the financial burden. Is this agreeable? |

But NoSkill, that's like filling in the "e" bubble on a multiple choice test with only four options a question. | ||

I believe that Alex is asking for someone to take ownership of the Server's actual operation side -- updating it, plug-ins, dealing with the stats, etc etc. The financial aspect of this is a separate issue but from the copious amounts of responses that have been addressed in this thread, whoever takes over the operations of this server shouldn't worry about the money. | ||

Alcosatz wrote ... This will hopefully be a rare post in which I do not bore the shit out of you. Hoooray! FT Classic has some options on the horizon: 1. A completely separate hosting contract is assigned to anyone but me at some point before early August (8/12 I think). 2. I can cancel the contract in early August and FT Classic is moved to a personal colocation on the east coast (just like the old days). 3. I can cancel the contract in early August and FT Classic is titsup. Those options are listed in the order of my preference. This is not an exit thread by me--I will still be around. It's been just shy of three years that I have been supposedly in charge, and now you guys and gals can figure out what's next for FT Classic. Bob and i opt to take option one. We have been working out the logistics and may have come to a consensus. We will take control of the hosting and control of FTC. Alex, you are able to take any part in this at your own Discretion. The change will be practically unseen (save a few host name changes and ip alterations). The only part we will need help with is the payment. To prevent any delay in FTC's service we are collecting donations now. This will keep the server up and running and allow no hick-ups during the transition. Our hopes are to do this transition ASAP (as soon as we collect some donations we can complete the movement). did i fail to address/mention anything? |
