Yes. There will be 2 servers.
Both servers will be backed up before the merger, then bravo will be used to host the merged server on. Since Bravo was created before the hosting plan, it doesn't need to be payed for annually/bi-anually. We will use bravo's server for the main server (so it will be up longer) and we an use element's server for a development server (where all the staff are on). Only the high staff (ServerOPs) will have access to the main server (like Graal Kingdoms and Debug). Since a development server isnt really needed much, we will use it until it runs out and decide whether or not to spend the money on another 6 months or a year.

Whoa, bad idea. If you want to merge, just be in charge of both seperate servers.

Yeah, a development serve is more or less pointless if staff are only allowed on the main, you can just use that, plus if they merge and bravos taff work on element, you'll have it classic soon and wont pay for that either

We are just deciding to mix them together I guess.

Read my post.
Low staff are only allowed on Development.
High staff are allowed on Main and Development.

Yeah. I won't have to pay for a gserver, and I am still deciding whether or not to pay for a server that isn't really needed...You know that servers on the hosted plan that go classic still have to pay, right?

MD has been in charge for a long time
I came in as a NAT about two years ago.
Then you came in sometime.

I went from like a nothing NAT to ServerOP

Yes you still have to pay. The current playerworlds don't pay because all of them are older than the PW Hosting system.

That stinks.... I was hoping to only have to pay until EK went classic, but I geuss by the time it does I will have sufficiently more income and will be able to afford a yearly payment until they decide to make those servers not pay :-/

You might not have to pay if your server because popular AND goes to classic. Like meaning it draws new people onto graal.

I have always wanted to see 2 servers do this. And to see how it would go. Good Luck on this project!

Yeah but I doubt you would get your server hosted for free.

No, but you might be able to get donations from people towards keeping the server up if it's popular enough.

Someone offered to pay for my server if he got RC.
I will be setting up a donation system soon. I would do it now but I hate doing PayPal stuff.

[falco10291029]

See, there's my point

[Slash-P2P]

Yeah but I'm not giving out RCs for people paying for my server. Its too much of a hassle, and it doesnt seem right.

If you people would like to donate, I will set up donations on PayPal and you can donate whatever you want.
