UPDATE
Hi everyone, so I've not posted in many years but I have still been around in DFLW.
As the DFLW community knows I had been hosting 4 different servers in LW and also 2 more in DF2.
I've been hosting the game servers since early 2015, 24/7 in an OVH datacenter on my own private dedicated server which obviously incurred fees. I used that same dedi server to host a couple of other private things but it was predominantly for DFLW/DF2 use.

I've never asked for any money from the community, and I never would but to put things in to perspective this was my cost for you guys:



Over the course of those 6 years I had taken many breaks, for months at a time, sometimes even a year. During that, I still paid and kept all the servers running and made sure everything was going smoothly.

I've now decided it's time to take all my servers offline and say goodbye to the community. I may possibly jump in from time to time but it won't be often at all. A few fellow members of this community are full of vindictiveness and hold grudges to somebody I hold close to my heart and the fact we cannot all simply play a game without drama and abuse of admin power to 'prove a point' is just ridiculous. The game is very very old now and will only keep declining in players as time goes on, eventually there will be no servers and it will officially be dead. We're now 4 servers less. I don't intend on hosting ever again but I enjoyed it whilst it lasted. I never abused my powers, I never spied on peoples chats in-game (via logging or live chat) whilst outside of the game via admin tools, and I certainly never went out of my way to continuously log and/or trace peoples IP addresses. For example, if 2 people are in a server with no other players and they want to have a private conversation (or think they are), that's not possible in 'popular' servers because invasive logging is in use and everything is and will be exposed. Unfortunately I've been witness to some of the back biting and back stabbing from such invasive spying and even with things outside of the game which are not said in game but in Teamspeak - especially to those who are 'best of friends'... the way 'they' talk about eachother when others are not around is quite shocking. Just remember people, be careful who you trust. Even if you've known them for decades. One thing I've learned is there are many 2faced people in DFLW unfortunately.

Luckily most people seem to be ok with me but then again I wonder if that's just because I've provided 'services' for many years. I wonder if that was also an act. Who knows.

Maybe I'll see some of you around in the future from time to time but for now. GG's.
