not to sound rude but I suppose I'm confused. couldn't you just transfer the ftp/servers over to somebody else who has the time and resources to continue them? is it about not having the iT/your name sullied?
regardless, thanks for the community support.

klananaI wanted to make a post here though in case anyone wants ftp access to them before they go down (in case anyone wants to put up new surf servers or whatnot).

Ive spent 3 years building up the name and a certain expectation with the name... so yeah a lot of it is with the name. And I wouldnt want someone just taking my IP's and putting some other name on it. Thats why I am more than willing to give people all of the resources to create their own servers.
Sorry if that seems greedy on my part... but it did take many years to get the servers to where they are and I *hope* the name is remembered as a place with good servers because of all the work we put into them.

Aw that sucks. Thanks a ton for hosting them so long out of pocket. You've done a lot to promote jumping and surfing. Hopefully some other servers will pop up to take their place.

It's pretty shitty just to shut it down for name-sake, pride and ego, there has to be a better alternative then just shutting them down completely klanana.

It's not shitty. She doesn't owe us anything. It is about pride, she hasn't made any argument against that. Pride can be a good thing. Klanana is/was iT, so having someone else running them wouldn't be iT.
Imagine if MJ had retired for good back in '97, that's what iT is doing now. She doesn't have the time for it so she's shutting down shop while she can still be proud of the product.

GrImpartialWhere will ToTH 2 go for backup servers? =O
We're thinking about making the Tip of the Hats pub server into a surf server. We just need to figure out how we're going to attempt to manage it as well as Klanana and friends have for the past 3 years. :(
Thanks for keeping surf alive for so long Klanana! Hopefully we can carry the weight from here on.

Didn't say she owed us anything, read it again.
I just think there has to be a better alternative then shutting a wide spread array of community loved servers down, but oh well its her decision ultimately.
Bring on the minus frags though.

I made so many friends, got into comp, hijacked a mumble server, and met my most beloved Klare all through JumpiT. It was where I spent a good chunk of my free time for well over two years, and I'm really sad to see the servers go. Your contribution to the community and to my own personal tf2 experience was/is amazing and I can't ever thank you enough Klare. <3

i think you're exaggerating quite a bit, it's not the end of the world....i'm sure someone who enjoys the servers will step in and provide new ones. maybe not right away but it will happen eventually

I'm doubtful that someone would step and run 7+ servers with the same quality that klanana is running them as currently; but it would be great if it did happen.

Yeah you didn't say she owed us anything but you implied it by calling her ego and pride into question and calling her decision "shitty". I don't need to reread your post to understand it.

GeknaiirSo is there any alternative to the jump/surf servers?

Surfing is much better in CSS, and this has wayyyy more people.
