Hi all I want to point out that the AAAA hosting and sub services costs for the dedi's and Web services we provide as a none business and none profit.
Total out going payments are now £172.99
I have a lot of people from many of the clans that help but I have some issues and this impacts everyone................
Late payments.... This happens and we have some scope to cover this and more than happy to allow late payments but I dont have the time or the funds when multiple clans are late paying........
So this month I have SS clan now 2 months in debt and WOV clan late again as well all be it by a day but I have no spare funds this month to cover this and now the Gaming Deluxe account is short on funds - yeh as always I will ensure its paid as its in my name but come on guys I have my own clan costs also and for the first 2 years to get AAAA off the ground I was covering all the costs - All I ask is to cover your costs on time........
Also at this stage we should be expanding on the hosting DEDI 2 is a beast of server and to be honest our hosting platform should be seeing us in major income that we can reduce clan costs and also support other MOHAA / MOHSH ventures but at this stage we are just about breaking even BUT are getting a higher spec service........
Yeh we got lag sometimes from GD but we only see GD lag because they are our network - check out some other host's forums DOS and DDOS attacks are common ground but I can assure you the grass is not greener else where - GD have a great support network and do respond quick to issues some dont even have support so yeh we get problems but so does many others.
So all I ask make payments on time but also HELP promote AAAA hosting the more we get then we can reduce cost's for ALL but you ALL need to support running it as a community IF not then no point - the whole point was to make it better as a community so we can ALL make it better and cheaper...............
I will be honest if I dont get the support and help then why should I cover the costs and issues a lone ? and get all the flak ?
All I want to do is build a community that can support each other........ Cant do it on my own !!!
At this Stage I would say that we can meet costs IF all Pay on time but UNLESS more people put time and effort into the AAAA community hosting project then we will down scale and I will be forced to move ALL dedi 1 servers (including my own) to DEDI2 as at present we are over paying for hardware and band width that we are not using !!! The Lag comes from the network not the hardware but as I said the grass is not greener elsewhere!!!!! - where as if you ALL put time into this project we can expand and build the community AND reduce costs !!!
I am at the point now that I spend all my free time running all this - I am not complaining !!! I enjoy it dont get much time to play which sucks so I ask for some help !! instead of me getting 100's of xfires and emails and posts about just about everything !!! PLEASE HELP support all this !! So yeh you ma not be able to do certain stuff but help with what you can.
I used to be able to access all this from work so used to catch up in work in free time BUT cant now so I am coming home from work to what now is hard work on my own and I ask a few of you need to step up to support as I cant DO this on my own!!
Being late with payments is one thing.....not paying at all is another. I am late with payments and need reminding but i always pay. And considering the many problems i've had with my server lag...DOS attacks etc.....GD are lucky to get a payment i think. If they are providing a service that people are paying for then they should do a better job in looking out for their customers. You asked for support and communication about lag on our server and we gave it.....by posting on the forums and coming to ts.....(a few times when no one else was on) to report issues we were having. Lag seems to have settled now but again the other night another DOS attack. I will continue to report any further issues WoV have. And we will continue to support AAAA. If this league requires more imput from us regarding any other matter then please let us know.
Thanks for your time and efforts jon.....appreciated.

Thats the problem as you just said "GD are lucky to get a payment i think." I have to manage all payments for the community !! one late fine multiple late payments from many just makes running it harder - Jayne been blunt SS clan are 2 months behind now your clan has been 2 months behind in the past - Two options for all support or leave - We can expand or we can reduce I am not bothered either way just asking for support and late and none payments just dont help.........
Try getting hosting else where and paying late - think I am nag they will just shut you down - I try my best to cover late payments but this month I cant
AAAA rents hardware NOT game servers from GD AAAA runs the Game servers on the hardware and network rented from GD - We have looked at other alternates but ALL have ups and downs
If you think the service is that bad please try out else where as I explained above - I for one dont need all this hassle
