    Everyone knows that the FAF servers haven't been doing great recently. I am a bit concerned that if this continues then people may be put off the game and the player base could dwindle.

    Lots of people subscribe to Faf casters like Gyle and pay £1.20 every month for content. I'm sure if there was a FAF patreon and the proceeds were used to maintain and improve servers and general connectivity then lots of players would sign up.

    It is free to play which is great and everyone appreciates the volunteer work that goes into keeping things going. But this might be a chance to improve things and take Faf to the next level. Any thoughts or comments please feel free to share. Thanks,

    Winter

      Here you go: https://www.patreon.com/faf

      Money won't solve the problem, but luckily people like Brutus, BlackYps and other contributors that are involved do

          While we appreciate and make use of our Patreon funding, Brutus has already written a very good post about how the issues FAF is experiencing are largely independent of funding and more money wouldn't do much to solve them.
