I know i should have gotten this up written up a while ago, but until i knew exactly what was going to happen i wasnt going to have 100 people chatting about it making their own assumptions. So im going to start this off from the very start. I began playing Cyntara when i had broken my hand, i had nothing to do and i was told if i did anything with my right hand i was basically resetting the clock. So after playing Cyntara for a month or so, and helping Chan with some mapping things, monsters, and general ideas, the server was having really bad downtimes, and i felt a general lost of interest for a moment there, and began learning all about OT's. I wanted to host Heltera so we would always have the server online. Finally the day came, when Heltera went public for the first time. I put a solid year of my life, daily checking the servers, easily 6-14 hours into the server/updating/dealing with isues. I very rarely remember going to bed before 2am.. I dealt with all the stress from DDoS attacks, even all the bullshit from my girlfriend for over a year with it as well. I honestly even as i read myself write deal with the bullshit, from my woman like i cant even put it all into words.. So after all my time and hardwork, and dodging DoS attacks from mexicans/br's/and even some from the USA the thing that finally nailed us was the dedicated company.
In the last 2 months my life has complerely changed, i went from living with my woman, dealing with life as it came, to all of a suden living with my brother and his fiancee and my niece, slapped with a assault charge.. Like picture this, one moment your in the house you have lived in for a year, and then you have a fight with your girl like honestly we had like 50 of the exact same fights... Next thing you know we were kinda side pushing each other outta the way while we were trying to grab something, she slapped me a few times not a big deal, i started calling her a cunt blah blah, and then the moment of truth... she slapped me 4-6 times in the face, and i pushed her with 1 hand, like she finished her slap and when i pushed her she was offbalance, and whammo... her friends came outta her room, saw sasha on the floor and they just fucking tweaked... Cops were called, i stuck around explained my point, and next thing you know i was brought out to the car they grabbed a garbage bag of my clothes, and i was arrested for assault, and could no longer talk to her, or go back to my house of over a year... in one split second.. So i moved into my brothers place, got myself a job, dealt with all the shit with sasha, currently dealing with court, duty council, Im now working fulltime late nights, all of this didnt change anything about how i fel about Heltera.
So lets get into the fun day, We had those disputes come out, and put us like -150 usd.. a day before a payment was due, Kio did a very amazing thing and bailed the server out, threw like 270$ to cover the 150 and pay for the like 120 on the dedicated. Then for whatever reason the server was off for lik 2-3 days, then i got it back on, oh and when i say offline for 2-3 days, i mean like i send them email tickets like every 3-5 hours all day, until they respond. The servers being offline means im more often than not frustrated as hell. So finally i talk to them and tell them i want my WoW server taken offline, and that i only wanted Heltera for now, and they go well my last payment was for WoW. and not for my Heltera IP, and like by this point heltera had been offline for like 7-8 days and out of those 7 days i had managed to get it up for a few hours, so then they told me they wanted another 120 for Heltera, and i was like if i had my servers up for that time i could easily have gotten that, but if they werent even gonna put them on like i couldnt make it happen. So then they just turned off the WoW one and locked me outta both ive showed Kio alot of these tickets out of everyone hes the main person i kept in contact with so he atleast knew i wasnt bagging him. So i brought up disputes with paypal saying i dont have access to my servers, and later lost that dispute, i guess netrackers does like easily 10-20G's of paypal business monthly, because they would have told anyone else theres no seller protection for virtual items/hosting etc etc.
So now lets address all the assholes, to anyone who thought i just like up and shut off my server to run off with lol... the small ammount of money the server was making, or anyone who doubted that i am nothing but dedicated to my server, and its players. Just imagine being asked the same question by 80 people for a year, and then imagine what happens to my msn when the servers turn off, then imagine half talking to one person then like everyone like jumping to conclusions, this is why i find out whats going on first before i really say anything. To any of my staff that feel i just abandoned them and made them feel unwanted/unneeded that was hardly the case, but like at the first 1-2 weeks of this assault shit, i didnt want to talk to anyone, and especially now i most often than not just see peoples messages from like 8-9 hours after they left them. I now work from 10pm-6am.
Heltera will be back, im hoping within a week or 2, dealing with what new company i want to go with, and i have alot of changes happening. People that wanna come back, ill be glad to see you, and if you dont come back... well take care.
