And that's the end of that. The curtains are closed, lights are off, and the cleaning man got laid off. Incredible performance. Think about what's happened over the past 10 years. 10 years! That's insane.

It all started with counter-strike, bleh, but it got me into playing small maps. Then I found day of defeat and avalanche was an obvious choice. 8 person dod server off my home connection did the trick. It exploded when we switched the spawn points. Sim and I started cdrive, good ole cal days. Then, diamond-optic joined with magical super powers of uncanny proportions and ambition. Still, this is the best online community that's existed that had the best administrators out there.

This server basically created my life. I'm not sure why I wanted to host a server. I didn't even know what server meant. I just saw this thing you can download and run on a computer and people can connect to it through a number. Then I realized you could go to college for something like this and my first job after college was managing 40 servers, because I already had the skills from running dod and the website. I can't thank day of defeat enough, and especially people like hawkeye and buck. Isn't that messed? lol. I love the internet.

Even though I wasn't active in the end, this felt like the end of my beginning on the net. The fact that day of defeat as a whole is still running is nuts. Old technology will eventually die, but the name lives on forever!

p.s. fuck cunt ass bitch and shit.

thanks for stopping by pope..

when it comes down to it, credit really goes to you... if i hadnt come across cdrive none of this stuff would have ever happened. you taught me all sorts of stuff about modding the map files, something I had no idea about (and i dont think anyone really knew about back then) ...that got the ball rolling, then you let me run wild with the ideas I had at the time.. never imagined, or intended, for things to end up anywhere near how things went over the years following that


so heres a big ass thankyou to you!



oh and i hope all the haters and dumbass noobs enjoy running their mouths now and talking shit, really shows how successful this whole trip has been

Yeah what they dont realize is that the only reason the server closed is because none of us fucking play dod anymore mainly bc its old and shitty and the userbase has gone down the toilet

Yep.. diamond, Pope, I really appreciate the work and time you guys put into it. I've been playing since the earlier cdrive days under another steam ID. This was the only server in dod I can say the admins actually gave a fuck and had common sense. Very cool, laid back environment. Lots of good times. Thank you guys.

meth was the fast forward for boring parts of dod. Taking the walk after spawn on any map except orange/ava is like.. i'd rather stick my hand in a blender.
