The next April 20 17Buddies will close. The server on which the site is hosted will not be renewed and without any alternative, we can not continue to provide the CS maps as we have done for over 11 fantastic years. It was a great adventure, but it will stop here. Our only option for continuing is to find free php/mysql hosting server able to accommodate 400GB of maps and support 2,000 users/day. If you think you have a solution or that you can help 17Buddies, please post in this topic urgently.
Le 20 avril prochain, 17Buddies va cesser d'exister. Le serveur sur lequel nous sommes hébergés ne sera pas renouvelé et sans autre solution nous ne pourrons pas continuer à vous fournir les maps CS comme nous l'avons fait pendant ces fantastiques 11 dernières années. La seule solution pour pouvoir continuer est de trouver un serveur php/mysql gratuit capable d'acceuillir les 400Go de maps CS et de supporter nos 2000 visiteurs uniques quotidiens. Si vous pensez avoir une solution qui puisse nous aider, merci de poster rapidement dans ce topic. |

Hi Chapo, it's Jon Higgins here from GameBanana. I know you have previously stated that 17B would never be given to us, however it would be a great shame to loose a site like yours and I am sure many people would miss it. It would probably be too hard for us to buy 17buddies as we are very busy with our current websites, as well as legal issues surrounding your ported content. However if you or the staff here are interested in continuing to run the site we may be able to take over the technical and monetary side of 17B by hosting it on one of our 10 high end servers. Thus allowing you guys to focus all your time on the community. Alternatively if you no longer want to work on the site we would be interested to buy the database and files off you for a one off lump sum. If there is anything we can do to help you guys out, or if you have any other propositions please let us know either on here or by sending an email to Jon@machinefloor.com. Hey Jon, if you control anything over at gamebanana maybe you can explain why there is no longer DoD 1.3 listed in you game drop down list. |

Chapo, there is another proposal to allocate resources under 17B in such locations: France, Germany, the Netherlands and Russia. Contact bormutov@bk.ru
I simply transfer existing proposals received in our community (link) |

Poldyaev, how can we sort out what you guys talk there in that community? We're not rusian speakers and that page is secured and it cannot be translated.

Is it possible to keep the same current host (OVH) if donations increase?

For decent web hosting , OVH proposes servers at 12€ / month (144 € / year).
Equivalent to the server we have now is more than 98 € / month ( 1176 € /year) We can't rely solely on donations to pay such a server, although we occasionally have members like you who make huge donations (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/ami2.gif) The future server will be necessarily less efficient than the one we have now. Numerous functionalities will necessarily be removed for the new server to host the site without being too slow. (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/icon_neutral.gif) |

We don't want to lose this resource so has there been any firm decision as to what will happen with 17buddies? Also, I would be willing to admin or co-admin for the site if you needed someone.

Transfering all datas to new server. Meanwhile all uploads are blocked until the new server is operational.
Of course, you can still downloads maps. Thank you for your understanding ... ----------------------------------- Les fichiers sont en cours de transfert sur le nouveau serveur. Pendant ce temps, tous les uploads sont neutralisés jusqu'à ce que le nouveau serveur soit opérationnel. Vous pouvez bien sûr continuer à télécharger nos maps. Merci de votre compréhension.
