[info]AMBROSIA COMMUNITY[/info]
[info]Hello fellow Ambrosians,

I hope you all are doing well, because i am happy to tell you that we are fine now! So i will just write everything that concernes our community currently and the changes that occured during these months.[/info][info]As you all have seen we went through big difficulties these months. We have tried everything to come back and we are back now again without any problem when it comes to attacks. We have done everything to stop it by changing host and everything to make sure people are able to enjoy their game play again. Even tho we went through difficulties i am more then happy to see that we have some great dedicated players and staff even tho some of them lost their motivation to play or work for our community they are still here doing stuff. There are some people who gave up and others stayed. There are some people who left our community and there are others who are still playing. I would like to thank each and everyone of you for staying into our community. Thank you for your dedication i very well appreciate it. I hope that we are all trying our best to make it the best place possible and accesible for everyone even tho financialy its even more expensive now then before. But we prefere that our members and staff play in a place where they feel like home. I know that there are up's and down's in every community that was another down for us but we will reach the up's again i promise you. And those things occured the moment that i am the most busy in the year so i am sorry i couldn't be here everytime to make sure everything runs perfectly. But like for everyone life is first. I hope you all understand.[/info][info]Ok lets go to the changes and updates in our community :

- New dedicated box with Layer 7 protection currently one of the highest protection that existe agains't Ddos attacks.

- New forum protection Layer 7 as well. But there are still some problems after those attacks but we are working to fix the fast's possible. And you should have already seen the (400 error page).

- Team Speak 3 Server will come back shortly we are working to bring it back.

- We are also working to bring new stuff into Ambrosia talking about new plans.

- Minecraft servers will be down until Ed comes back and decides what he wants to do with it. (Don't ask me when he will come back i have no idea i lost all contact with him).

- There are also some different events that will be organized in these months coming not sure when but i will make a topic once i know when it will happen.

[/info][info]- There are also some people who left and resigned :

- First of all Unreal our former Community Leader who was promoted some months before he resigned because he coudn't handel it anymore.

- There is City our dd2 Server manager who moved to a different country and he is busy with studies, he will stay as an admin but he won't be able to keep anymore his rank because he is very busy. Thanks for your great work both of you.

- Rambaten will come back once he feels better he is going through difficult times i hope everything gets well for him and his family. Wish him the best. Thanks again for your great work.

- There is also DayLight who has been helping us as a Manager of cs 1.6 he is busy with his new studies too so he is leaving his position since he feels that he will not be able to do his job.

- Ed i don't know what is going on with him since like i said above i have no news from him. I hope everything is alright with him and if not i hope things go better. Because he is a guy who was for years beside me since we started as Head Admins in Ambrosia. He will come back i know that for sure but when i don't know. So currently he will be moved to inactive Rank until i get some news from him.

- Red Wolf he has been working here also with us since we took over he is a great guy he is helping every single day when it comes to servers or forums or attacks any problem and Red wolf is always there. I thank him for his great work and his dedication towards our community and thats why from now on he will have a new position he is our new Co-Owner Congratulation you deserve it.
[/info][warning]Other then that we are still recruting people so if you want to help ambrosia and you feel that you can do that then please send me a message but before make sure to read this and see the place's that are avaible : https://www.ambrosia-servers.com/community/index.php?action=recruit[/warning]

Thanks everybody for reading.

No drama or offense intended but why? U got 114  users in 7 days that visit the forums and it's just dead. Nothing comes from you guys as for events/new things. It's just dead. Is it not time to consider to stop or to really start doing something.

Well there is a merit of excuse given the ddos attacks being the priority, but yeah, there really is no incentive to donate s the funds pretty much go to bills only.
I feel like there should be some form of transparent funding, where you can see directly what your donation went into, otherwise it's just money thrown out of the window.

Nothing comes ? We were under ddos attack for 6 months i have moved to another host to give players a stable server where they can enjoy playing. And thats what i am focusing right now its  security and quality of servers. I am gone do events but once i finish securing ambrosia. How i am supposed to do events while there were no stable servers. We have had that before in ambrosia. And right now  i am planning events that will come real soon. But there were more trouble then this and you should understand this since you were in the staff team before while we had such problems. Anyway like i said up in this topic events are coming soon. And need some prepartion before launching anything.

As for this never ambrosia has showen what they are using money for but i will show because i do not want the players to think that i am using for my own benefit ;

So here are my transaction usually from Ambrosia paypal ;

Skozza baits its for boosting
Ovh 140 GBP = 163 Euro
You can see there the donation from  @java GIRL    + @RAMBATEN
Paypal Top up is me recharging my paypal to pay Ambrosia bills since i use paypal for only Ambrosia transactions
Sucuri LLC its forums firewall

Soo i am planning by december to move to another forum host since it costs a lot but i have no advantage on it no Layer 7 protection as you can see i am paying an addition for forums firewall.
Lets not talk about SSL + CSGO Keys for servers to work perfectly.

I pay approximativly 280 Euro a month with dedibox forums Windows license forums firewall  So thats why i asked for a little help its not that i can not pay but its just that i want to move stuff to different hosts and pay for stuff  directly
Only boosting dd2 costs 80 euro a  month. But i cant reach always the boosting  time thats true because i am busy with work too.

(https://image.prntscr.com/image/2R0OLtyyRDWNqEMg_L-IKQ.png)

I am just trying to get some help for ambrosia not for my self since i am on my own currently so i thank people who donated this month it just reduced the bill for this month.
Anyway i hope you understand that i would never use ambrosia donation for my self what ever donation will be there will be for the place you all play.

Cheers

I never accused you of using the money for your own benefit, I know you long and good enough to know you wouldn't :)

What I am saying is: People should get the incentive to donate, if they see what their money is being put into. For example

Let's say I donated 30 euro to the community. I personally would be much more to inclined again if I saw next to my 30 euro that for example: 15 euro has been used to boost servers, 15 euro we  purchased a paid mod from amxmodx to improve the server.
That would be much more exciting to see, what my money directly contributed into, rather than it just fading into obscurity :)

You're asking for transparency like you have some kind of lack of confidence or you simply don't trust the Owners who've been around contributing for the Community their whole life even before becoming their new leaders.

And I was around longer than any of them but that's beside the point.
More importantly you should learn to read posts before posting yourself, my post had absolutely nothing to do with lack of transparency for the trust sake.

Yeah... I just about give up on trying to exlain to you what my post was about, because it would literally be more productive to watch the paint to dry than to somehow get through you, that my post was actually never accusing anybody of taking money, however it was a means to make donations more attractive option to everybody.  You literally would miss the point if you would be walking headlong into it.

Nice to see you too mate. Hope everything's going well.

Well, sooner or later either we will take the initiative to move on or be forced to.
