Save Wireplay

[red_ned]

would ask all members of the CiC forums to help support Wireplay as it tries to save its very existance. Wireplay needs to look at becoming commercial to save its community and the bigger the community the more chance the new owners will save it. It has always been a gamers community and never asked for anything other than people playing on its servers and posting on its forums, so at this time i would ask everyone to make sure they have a wireplay forum account and make some posts to show its active and worth saving.

Thanks from all Wireplay admins and workers who worked for no reward except to game with friends, kind of like the CiC ethos.

Who What When Why... who owns it now then?
As for more comercial dose that mean its going down the multiplay/jolt path?

it was owned by pipex, pipex sold the ISP part off to wanabe or something. wireplay was left with a few bits and pieces which went to Web Fusion. They host web sites and we moved our current server into their server room a few weeks ago. As yet Wireplay has no clue when questions are gona have to be answered, the community needs to grow and the website needs to promote the company enough or make some cash to be worth while.
Server hosting isnt on the cards atm as Wireplay doesnt own enough decent hardware to sell, and the cost of server has dived (our 32 man server for tf2 is £12 a month, although a 6mnth contract).
So ideas are being taken in the forums as to how we make money + get community back = catch passing browsers and get throughput enough for sponsorship to make some money.
