There is 500-1000 people playing always. The server is in sweden, home of amazing 100/1000/10000 internet.
Is there a way to get jorb/loftar to actually read this and perhaps say for example, 'we need 1000 dollars pooled and we can look at getting a better server to handle the load'
I would donate in a second if I knew the money went to the server.

you just didnt bother to read their announcement, right?
the money donated to them went to the server, and the server is in Germany, not in sweden.
now straight to Donation page, dear.


You missed the part about a better server.
If it is the server and not the coding, say u need more money and I will give it.



you missed the part about it being the coding and not the server... jorb mentioned it himself, i'd quote but I've only seen it quoted rather than in it's original post

thanks for clearing it up, that is the worst news for us at this point.
justifiably so, they are focusing their efforts on a new project. this game is fantastic, regardless of the lag.

Is this the quote you're referring to hazzor?
jorb wrote:It's an I/O problem with the present hard drive set up which we use to prevent map corruption.




As for the lag, it is the coding that contributes largely to the enormous amount of lag, and that's not going to change until Salem is released. Jorbtar simply don't have the time to update the game.

see how this community changed?
before, people asked no questions and donated. devs posted their gratitudes and how it was used.
nowadays, some people *try* to threaten devs with "im not donating unless..." thing and complain all the way thru when they all should know devs are very busy with salem to make living.
do you actually expect devs to care for those complainers and read your complaints and reply to each?
(although im sure there are still those left who act without complaining and are just quiet about it.)

I wasn't going to reply, but I couldn't resist telling you how much of an idiot you are.
Nobody threatened shit, I have donated in the past. I asked if it was a funding situation.
I also stated I know they are focused on salem and that I am not upset about it.
