@Mize what is your nickname on discord, there are about 3 different accounts like: mizer3727, mizer4792, mizer5761

Server != server.

The server admins (mostly @p4block and I) work on server infrastructure. The Kubernetes change is unrelated from DDoS and was planned long before that.

The lobby server development has mostly stalled after TMM development. Major topics and pull requests have never been finished (for example changes required for Galactic War) and the maintainer has stated his lack of time and long term interest. We had that situation before. Barely anybody wants to take the responsibility of the lobby server code. I can't blame anyone, this community is super toxic if you break something.

I'd like to play, but tomorrow is way too soon

@brutus5000 said in What is going on with FAF?:

Please guys. If you want to donate for the cause of FAF that is fine. But don't donate and expect and problems to be resolved in return. This is not something we can guarantee.

Absolutely understood. I suppose the better term I should have used is support rather than donate... Support can come in many forms, financial, skill set, or even just positive attitude. All I can do is bring a positive attitude and support the developers by not whining and complaining about the state of FAF every time I log on and I am more than happy to donate financially to a game that I care so much about and spend so much time playing.

It's clear from this thread there is no easy fix so I'm not going to expect the few hundred dollars that I donate a year to instantly change that but it might go towards ensuring our tournaments at FAFLive continue to have great turnouts due to respectable prize pools and that the lights stay on so to speak.

As great as my skill set is in my own life and career it is completely useless for what is required here at FAF but it brings me joy to be able to support financially.
