Arrow End of the road.


Barring anything unforseen in the near future, PlanetSide Universe will close its doors on January 31 2005 at midnight. I have spent many hours and days considering thsi and it has been a great 3 years running this site, but after all that time I believe it is time that we close the doors. Running this site is an emotional and financial drain on myself and I simply dont have the time or extra money to keep it afloat. The donations from the last drive will last until Feb 1 and thus we will close our doors.

I want to thank everyone who has visited this site over the past years, and all the friends I have made because of it. Me and my wife got to know eachother better via this very site and forum. I have made some amazing real life friends over this time as well and I will miss this forum. So thank you for coming and thank you for being an amazing community, I will miss you.

FYI: The future of PSU:MB is unknown at this time and depends on a variety of things.

What'll happen to the hosted websites? The IRC channel? The TS server?

IRC will be gone, Hosted websites will have to find a new home. I will leave them on until they can find a new one. TS is mostly CDL, thus it wont be going anywhere.

Sad as I am to see this happen, I know Hamma has done what he came to do: create a wonderful community and place to go for the game of PlanetSide. I personally believe that Hamma's efforts singularly helped PS become the game it is today and his work established the community we know here.

As he is a close friend of mine, I know for a fact this decision was a tough one but one he had to make.

Hamma, you have my utmost respect in the work that you did here and I can honestly say - Mission Complete.

Great work my friend.

Nooooooooo!


I can only imagine how tough it was to make that decision, Hamma, but it's one I can understand. PSU will be sorely missed.

Hamma-


Hamma, I can try to get you a new website to host PSU on, free of server charges. It'll have the forums (though they wont be like this) and all the stuff your acustomed to. I can get your post counts back up to what they are now, and we can relaunch PSU.
