First, let me make it clear that this plea has come from myself, and has in no way come from anyone at black-cell, infact they have no idea or clue that I was going to make this thread.
I would like to ask/beg that someone gives Whitedragon one of the top a00 host names for there server.
They've recently been donated a server and have Dragonade (the name that they gave there server-side modification) back up and running. The only problem is that unless some regulars join for a long time there is little activity there, which is more then just a shame, it's an injustice.
black-cell created the first server-side mod for renegade. Whilst others dithered trying to figure out the level edit tool, they already started making what we now know as the renegade API and had started making changes to there server.
They shared this work with BlackHandStudios and they also released the first public version of SSAOW.
With continuining effort (there only motivation being the betterment of the renegade community) they release what nearly all renegade servers run today, SSGM2.02.
Even if the server you played in didn't run SSGM2.02, then it is unlikely that without the releases and the work of black-cell that it could exist at all.
Most of the mods you see today have been based on either black-cell's source code, or there idea's. You can think of black-cell as being the mother of it all.
Alas, they are a victim of there own kindness. They used to have a healthy player base, but with so many servers being able to compete with them and rival there own mods, and later with a smaller player base in general coupled with there server being listed far down on the WOL listings, the server has become a shell of what it once was.
I love that server and long for it to flourish again. With an a00 host name it would.
I believe there is no group more deserving then them.
Please, if you're in a position to let black-cell use a very good a00 host name, then do so.
If you know someone who has one spare, then beat them, beg them, bribe them or black-mail them into giving it to Whitedragon.
Perhaps you have more then one server with one of these host names, I know it's a big ask, but please consider dropping one of the other servers.
I realise it's a cheeky thing to ask, but please consider it.
