Well, I haven't an easy time writing these lines...:(
That steam update is a shame for the community and DayZ at all. I'm pretty sure that it will kill the mod sooner or later, because so many peeps having problems with setting up this shit.
Checking some servers with the new DayZ Launcher affirmed my opinion that 95% of all servers are dead. Even the Sauerland server we had a look in the past is dead at all. And it was a very popular one with about 30 players.
Even when I could handle to join my server again, we would never raise a community again like in the past. In the best dayz we had 25 players online. We lost many regular players due to problems with setting up things and changing maps. Overall our community shrank to a minimum. Those of you who stayed loyal to my server I wanna say a big thank you! Within the 9 months the server is now online I learned so much things about MySQL, Map Editing, Scripts and running a server. At the beginning it was often annoying but also much fun and I had only to pay for one month for the server at all. The rest of the time the server was paid from your donations. Also a big thanks for that! Just now I would have been in a position to improve the server, scripts and BEC filters to make it much more interesting again...
I'm consequently in many things and it makes me sick to provide Steam making a cock-up of DayZ! And that's exactly what they have done! Blame you steam, no one needs your possessive business practices or your shitty game settings! The very fact that you aren’t able to sell a game you bought over steam is an absurdity and an absolute insolence! Even Vilayer didn't give a shit about my announcement that I will give up the server when I don't get help from them solving my problems.
I'm sad about this, but I will give up the server! DayZ is still a great mod but all these circumstances force me to do this! I'm done with DayZ, although I still like it much...
I will keep this forum up to stay in touch and maybe we change to another game we all can play. Maybe I'm rising a new server someday.
At the moment I'm glad to have some more spare time, I had my bike repaired and will take a vacation next month to get on the road again. I decided also that I will buy a new PC, because my actual one is over 7 years old. I'm really looking forward to GTA 5 which is hopefully released on september. I'm a big fan of this game and played all parts of it. It will also have a multiplayer modus. So maybe you can imagine to buy that game too. I will post a thread about GTA 5 soon.
Thank you again guys for playing on my server and for keeping it alive! Hopefully cya again someday on another great game.
Pleasure to meet you Stoll and cheers for the server meet some good guys on there, I hope you work hard get new computer and look into joinong us on h1z1 when it comes out, or a Arma 3 dayz server???
If you aint got me on St#@m add me sburymozza or Email sburymozza@yahoo.co.uk
Cheers guy privilege to meet and play with you all hope the Redneck clan finds another game we can team up and take over the world on.
Yep, i agree. It has been a real pleasure to play on your server Stoll. The only one i found that was well run and had a good friendly group of players. This is a real shame. I hope that we can all get it together to carry on playing as a clan. The game is less important than the friends I've made since we've been playing together. Some epic fights, and some really good laughs. I hope we find another game that we can all play. Stoll, all the good stuff was because of you. Fuck steam. You got us all together, and you made us want to stay. Any time you want to, don't forget the TS. We'll be around, and if you need anything, just ask. Are you going to keep the forum? It's a great way to keep in touch. In case i haven't made it plain, thanks Dirk.
That's a shame. I know I've not been on the server recently as I've been busy with work after a pay rise and rise of hours, and I'm moving out tomorrow! Was an honor to play with you guys and I hope I get the chance to again one day. Only group of players I've found that are friendly and welcoming!
I'll be around on various games and hopefully will get back into DayZ once the house is sorted.
Anybody feel free to add me on steam at either Paarthurnax or Steve188166, I can't remember which it is o.O
Hope to see the Gunther crew back in action soon.
Thanks for creating a great community and server Stoll.
I had a great time on the server. Had some really good moment's. We had stayed along time al together. And i wish al of u guys the best luck with the rest of ur gamer future and hope we can play a game some time again. It was really nice to play in your server stoll and with the community we raised.
It is a shame to lose that community. I got first time that awesome clima joining to your fireplace at stary trader. (Master base). It was amazing for me. Now i run my own server and it is really hard work so all greatings for you Stoll.
Thanks guys, for you fair words. I know it's a shame and I said from the very beginning that I hate steam. And I blame steam for my decision. There are many peeps out there who have the same problems like me. And this is exactly what will kill this mod. I'm sure there are enough peeps around who handled this crappy update. But over the time with less of players...it will be hard for server owners to keep the population up. It was hard enough on the best times.
And...yes David it's hard work to create an interesting server and keep it up and all running correctly.
I will share all my stuff at the Epoch Forums soon, maybe this evening. I'll post the link here, so for the ones of you running an own server it may be of interest. I wish you luck with it, you will need it.
As I said before, I'm done with DayZ, although I still like it. And I'm sure we will find another game we can play all together again. I fear it will be a Steam game again...
Oh, and the server will be still online for 2 months! So when you want any changes, just let me know. I could change the vehicles that will spawn to tanks, or give AI some jets again. You want a Ural full of BC? No problem, just let me know.
Zitat von soldier The highlight's for me where obviously. The time Gareth and i lived in balota. Had so much fun in there.
We are not gay lovers btw
HFB servers who did mainly Dayz servers went bust mainly due to issues with ppl not being able to join there servers since the big move, so ppl canceled there servers

That's similar what I wrote Vilayer today and I also told them that I will give up my server. This steam update was the deathblow for DayZ! Fucking steam, I always said....
However, I posted my stuff in the Epoch Forums, was much work, finally my last for this mod:
Thanks all, was good fun playing and meeting you all. So nice of u all to come visiting Gunthers ocean of lust. I havent been playing too much latly, as I have a lot to sort out with school etc. I do wish we all get togheter and play some games togheter still tho.
