Title: Gamingforce
Post by: Infernal Monkey on February 13, 2006, 01:40:18 PM
Heeeey guys. =o I know quite a few of you use the Journal system and/or post over there, and you've probably noticed it's down again. So I thought I'd better click the New Topic button. Seems GFF won't be coming back anytime soon this time! Official word;

Dear Members of Gamingforce,

Due to a number of personal reasons and the lack of resources I have available at this moment. I was unable to pay for a couple of months service on the Gamingforce server. Even with some of the donations i have received, the cost of running the site is quite high with still a large chunk of the payments coming from me.

I absolutely love the community and the people who are part of it and need your help to bring Gamingforce back up. I currently owe my hosting company close to $1350 in back bills and without these payments, we risk losing everything that was on GFF including all the content, scripts and user submitted materials. Without your help, it will be impossible in my current state to bring things back up.


Message cut by a whole heap because the rest is about donating details and so forth. PM if you want the link to the rest. Now where am I going to post my comics? =( FUNHOUSE

Awww ****.

I figured it was just another week of down time (which happens like every two months, so I stopped worrying about them) but this is sad news =(  I hope they get it back up, I don't want to lose my entire gurnal, even if it contains nothing of value =((((

On a positive note, the shitheap of a videogame section would be completely destroyed, but alas the positives do not outweigh the negatives.  Stupid bobo >=U

Really? That's pretty disappointing. I hope it does get back up. Even though I didn't have much of a contribution in the scheme of things..

Everytime GFF went down, I swore it was because I didn't let the sit eload up on my computer before going somewhere else.  Stupid I know, but still that's what went through my mind.

Maybe if they didn't order like 1000% more bandwidth than they actually used...

God damn it... I was about to post a thread here about it, as it always seemed to be a good luck charm for it coming right back up and making me look foolish, but no such luck this time it seems.

Oh well, thanks for keeping us informed Infernal Monkey and I hope they return someday.

GAWD YES!

PS GFF was full of drama queens. Good riddance.

GSHOIFTY

Yeah, I pretty much hated most of GFF, but I liked the gurnals ;___;  The emergance of "TEAM _____" pretty much sent GFF to the shitter, most people involved with any of them I pretty much hated.  Stirrin' up some drama can be hilarious sometimes, but GFF was basically constant dumbshittery by a few groups, each of which thought they were being funny, but pretty much just pissed off everyone else.

But the gurnals I miss, especially since that's the only way I ever talked to some people....

At this point in time, it seems GFF might return within the next 2 weeks or so. Over a thousand dollars has been donated. =o

Aww, I was hoping he'd be able to get the data back ;__;  At least it'll cut down on the faggotry a fair bit.
