As you may have noticed over the past few weeks, our Cheezserver is maxed out. We're running at our maximum output of 10 Mbps, more or less around the clock. This is both good and bad. Good, because it means a lot of paysites are being destroyed. Bad, because it means the cheezserver is slow.
Debates about what to do are ongoing, between leaving it as is, or purchasing an additional Cheezserver. Naturally, an additional cheezserver will cost funds which we don't have on top of the funds for the renewal of the existing cheezserver (most of which we have). Alternatively, we can just ignore the problem, and you can suck it up, losers.
You decide.

I say give us a link to donate to and if we make the target price, yippee. If not, you can consider them all donations to the 'Let's treat the local Fat Obstreperous Jerk to a case of rum!'* fund.
*Or two. Or three.

You should probably get an extra server or ask the Malasians to lift the 10 Mb and change it to 100? Maybe that's possible, for an extra cost?

Seriously...we should donate and you should get us a new server. Be sure to put one of those cute progress thermometers on there like the United Way has.

I say a new domain, if other sites like MTS2 and InSim can have a donation drive why not us?
Only issue is we'll be spammed by trolls and the like accusing us of being pay - which happened at MTS2 if I remember rightly (or was it that Jan woman?)

Not that I really download from the booty much anymore as I'm currently in the naughty chair for getting too much crap, but I say more shiny stuff. As I used both PMBD and MATY, I suppose I should give you some moneys.

Arrrrrrrrrr, if'n we gets another server, we can has a fleet of the fookin things and really cause some havok! I love havok, it's just soooo chaotic! I'll donate but it may take a couple of weeks... and yeah, a rum bottle showing our progress would be fun to watch! Or put up a map to Davey Jones's locker, the closer we get to our goal, the closer we get to the locker and then finally get there. It's apt because we are in the business of sending paysites to the Locker in the first place! That and we finally got to see the first two POTC movies and it's still on my mind, or what is left of it...

Why the flucking bunnies should we support yet another server? More space for the booty? Faster download speeds for the crew?
Paysites continually being slaughtered left and right...
. . . .
Well hell, get that additional cheezserver pl0x.
