Hey guys. There's been some talk in the air about having our own C&C Renegade server, to advertise for our mod Renegade 2007. Our Dev. team over at R07 believe in sticking close to our community. Each of us already contributes to the great game C&C Renegade in our own way, and we want to give our community everything we can to keep it alive. With a C&C Renegade server hosted by the Renegade 2007 Mod Community, each of us will be devoted to continuing the legacy of this C&C Community. However, we do need YOUR help! Before making this official, we will need to find a low-rates server host, as well as some possible donations. Anyone whom is able to find a good server deal under $50 American per month should post information here right away. The host with the lowest rates will be used. We are looking to use a 28 player server.
If you can donate any amount of money (ALL donations are appreciated), post here immediately and private message me your MSN address and Paypal account. All donations must be at least $5 American.
Rewards!
To all donators, the Renegade 2007 team will reward full-time Moderator status for the month they contributed!
Donators will also be given access to join any Renegade 2007 Dev Team ingame gatherings. Every few weeks, our team will lock the server and have organized and professional fun games with each other. Donating to the server will get all contributers a 1-way ticket to a very fun game with very professional players.
If you want to go one step higher in the Renegade 2007 Community, either post the best server deals you can find, or donate. Even if it's as little as $5, we will accept it, and you will receive your rewards!

We also need a top a00 name if we want anyone in the server. If someone has a good one they are willing to share, you would also get the rewards listed.

Hmm, we may be able to help you out.

I can get a server from elite kamikaze team http://www.elitekamikazeteam.com/modules.p...topic&t=170 for 65p per slot rather than the 75p advertised (as Goku loves me), so a 28 slot server = ?18.20 which according to google is $35.74.

The servers damn good that he runs from there (spec shown in the post linked above).

As for the A00 name we will have to hunt for that, i doubt many are available for cheap (only ones I have are aafact which will be way off the list).

Anyways, let me know.

28 player for $35 is a great deal. Unless we can find better we'll probably take that!

We need to find an a00 host now

I moved it to News so more people can see it.

maybe siteground is something?
donnu how you list everything but if you pay 2 year forward you pay US$5 a month

it has:
250 GB Web space
2500 GB Traffic
and a FREE Domain

http://www.siteground.com/

just see it for yourself and check if it is something

(also payments every month/3 months/year are allowed but then u pay some extra cash (maximum=9.95 USdollars a month))

[JeepRubi]

This is for a game server, much different from a web server.

[alikali]

okay, I'm a noob in such things ops:

most famous i would presume they are quite cheap with VPS (Vertual Private Server) and Win2k3...Erm they allow you to have 2 extra programs running so it might be possible to make your own IRC server!

Fl00d3d and his TSU Gaming Community made an offer to me and Renegade 2007:

We can get a server with 28 player slots, for $49 U.S, which is just under our $50 limit.

As a bonus, we would get the a00000004 nickname for free. That nickname is one of the best; it puts our server on the first half of the first screen on the WOL menu. The catch? We would have to share it with another couple servers. So basically, we'd have the nickname for a few weeks, then give it off to another server. They'd keep it for a couple weeks, etc. and it rotates. We'd basically get 2 weeks every month with that nickname, if only 3 servers sign up (right now only 1 is signed up).

The plus side, however, is that when we get that nickname, our server will be COMPLETELY booming. Even when we don't get it, people would eventually learn the name of our server, and find it on the server list if they like playing on it. The server's frames per second is locked at 60sfps, and there is supposedly no lag; top line pings.

I think this is a good deal, considering we'd get the server nickname for free. Most people nowadays have been selling nicknames for more money than actual servers - making a business out of it. Unless we don't find a better deal than this, we will be signing up for it.

[JeepRubi]

I don't like the Idea of changing the name of our server.

[MightyBOB]

The server name won't change, the host nickname will.

[JeepRubi]

I know that, but most people find serv ers by their host name.

I think it's the other way around actually :?
