Title: SAD NEWS
Post by: [NRNS]DR-EVIL on May 14, 2018, 12:07:35 PM
Today i payed the nrns bills for this month, due to the costs it will be the last one i can personally make. I have had a very hard time for the last 6-12 months in my private life with scares of cancer (was clear) and major stress. This has opened my eyes to alot of things including whats more important. All i do is work and sleep and run this community. I dont drink and dont smoke. I use to think I did all this for you all as we use to be a caring community that helped each other but over the last 6 months this is not the case now which is a major shame. seems to me that most (not all) of the users of this community are just out for themselfs.

I pushed myself hard to keep this community running however I can not seem to run this place and work to pay its bills. Something has to give.I am open to any ideas that would keep nrns running but i will not hold my breath for the ideas to come in.

I leave the outcome of this community to you all.Since once the bills due again if we dont have the money it will close.

Sorry for the sad news and i would like to thank you all for been part of this great place for all the years we have ran.

Kind regards

Dr

I have an Idea if you play you pay,as in you dues as a member you could ask every member to give a set amount that they can fit into their budget. 8)

I think $10.00 would be a good base amount. :)

I just want to help you in any way I can. :)

As it stands right now we are always short. Our usa server box is covered fully regardless of the total cost by a 3rd party.(see donations its always in there) The only costs this community has is for the website and the eu box. A short fall of about £90 give or take a fiver. Thats $122 dollars on avg based on the current rates.

no one will be forced to pay for anything since there is lots out there that do it for free. Our website user base has dropped by 80% as well since discord was used. which fell in line with bf2 revive closing its doors. we lost alot of players/users which has not helped.

For months i have been asking for help with lots of offers each time but life seems to get in the way for them just like it has for me now.

i have a server running multiple websites located in NL.
Maybe we could migrate the website and spare the costs?

Im really sad with this situation and I fully understand your position Dr Evil... You always had and will have my respect and admiration for your work, your way to treat every single one on this forums and your sniper skills in bf2 :). I hope things that really matter in your life get better.

Its sad that bf2 almost gone, i use to take a look if there are players on servers but lately always seems to be empty. Which players are still alive in bf2 servers?

As an idea, i think it would be good delete from members all those that has not been around in last 2 monthsjust by one reason... To know the members that are really active in games and forums, how many NRNS we have, what games they are using and focus the solutions regarding that information. Also I think we have publics that are regular here and in servers... Both are the engine of the clan.

I dont know what can be done to reduce costs or even if its possible, but i would say that if bills can be reduced deleting unused servers or games, its what have to be done to survive.

From my side, Im still waiting lali to tell me how can i help modding bf2 maps, at the moment i dont play bf2 or any other game but im here to help anyway I can. I cant believe even without battlelog we cant have a populated bf2 server, at least on certain moments, still there are bf2 player interested on game, im sure, also im sure we always had the very best and playable servers.

Checking hub servers right now, at least there are 140 players ( no bots ) online. Super@ and 2f4y have most of them.May we dont remember ir, but 2 years ago we were more populated than them... Unranked most populated servers are chinese now, I mean we are the only funny server with low ping, why cant se repopulate again? Still posible if se try ti populate them a bit
