NOTE: hosting space is full at the moment so we cannot accept further requests until more room
can be made. Check back here in a week.

It really shouldn't be...and problems should get fixed. I think Dantom has been a bit busy on other issues lately, but given the need to have people host games elsewhere, you should keep pinging them about any troubles getting a server running. | |

Perhaps I never explicitly said this, but it's been implied: as soon as a version compiled for FreeBSD appears (I'm not even talking about guis, etc), I would be happy to offload some of the hosting duties to my machine. Hell, I'll host some DBZ games just to get them off Dantom's server. DBZ game makers/players note: this is not an open invitation to bug me about hosting your game. I cannot host right now, and if/when I can, I will be as selective as I want about what gets hosted. | |

A couple of months I think.
Near as I can tell, all the DBZ games and such were choking things up and the machine was grinding to a halt.
Dantom is now rethinking how to provide some form of hosting service while not having the machine get killed.
