Title: Sauron speaks
Post by: Sauron on August 04, 2009, 08:05:08 pm: On the 3rd of August, Argonath lost one of their owners and developers. I would have closed down the servers in response, if it was not for Gandalf stopping me. Not because he felt at the time happy or that the players who caused this deserved to continue. But because we do not want to repeat and run around in circles.
We are considering options to cut costs as one of the supporters will contribute less, Also we plan that the funds to run the community should not rely on the owners alone, but it should become self-supporting.
With our player base this should be possible.
Over the next days Gandalf will discuss with the developers, and after that plans will be revealed.

Argonath stands for now, and will hopefully continue to stand.
But do not expect a fast return of Aragorn, if he will return at all.
The only way he might return is if he finds that the community of Argonath deserves to be fought for.
This is also the standard we set for you. Make us proud to be Argonathians.

Post by: Nexxt on August 04, 2009, 08:20:49 pm: Welcome Sauron..

Just take the time to talk with server owners.
We shouldn't rush with this case, as it's very important and about the Argonath future.

Hope it will end in a positive decision.

Post by: lavamike on August 04, 2009, 08:21:48 pm: I think the biggest problem is the age of people in the community. Some may not have a job, may not be able to snail mail donations, and can't put their money into 'virtual' accounts such as PayPal.

Believe me, if I had extra money and a way to send it, I would.
Title: Re: Sauron speaks
Post by: Fruity on August 04, 2009, 08:28:12 pm: Thanks for the small update Sauron, and as Lavamike says, if I had the extra bit of cash I would chip in.

Title: Re: Sauron speaks
Post by: Yume on August 04, 2009, 08:35:31 pm: I would donate also but i dont have money and also im underage.. And take time talking with the developers
Title: Re: Sauron speaks
Post by: Grovyle on August 04, 2009, 08:39:40 pm: I would also donate but I am underage too.
Thank you for the update.
Title: Re: Sauron speaks
Post by: Gandalf on August 04, 2009, 08:40:56 pm: Do not think just about the money from donations. And as Sauron said, Argonath stands and hoepfully will stand a long time.

Same situation in here, we need more ways to pay..

I hope it's not the end of the line.

What a strange situation?
How can a baboon on walking heels be able to use anonymizers? How many of you are there? Fifty? Eighty? One thousand?
Listen to your shouting mum, go get some sleep.
It also is okay when you won't wake up.

I hope the developers find a good way to make this out ;)
Take your time, and we all hope for a future in Argonath :)

And about donations, I think many thinks the money is the main and only reason for this happening, I guess it's not. But still I would gladly donate a few coins ;)

Title: Re: Sauron speaks
Post by: Bianconeri on August 05, 2009, 10:46:57 am: this is the best server there is in SAMP(if you want RP servers)
the ppl here are way nicer then on other servers, even though it looks different sometimes

the leaders of the Server stand way closer to the ppl then on other servers,
the community is much bigger then the others
everything is way better then any other server

as said before, the problem is the age, most arent adult yet(18)
and are not allowed to pay through internet,
personally im 18, but im not that rich,
and im doing a study which also takes a lot of money from me

We all love this server!

Well if we knew how much every thing specifically costed maybe we could contribute with cheaper hosting?
Title: Re: Sauron speaks
Post by: SugarD on August 06, 2009, 07:57:29 am: Thank you for the response Sauron. It has been quite some time since we've seen you speak. As we all know, Argonath RPG needs much more support. As both money and a lack of ability to donate are issues, maybe we need to seek elsewhere for more support. Although most users are now already aware of this, I very much appreciate your dedication to announce this to this great community.
