I have been trying to contact Wyld over the last few months in various ways with no luck.  He was a private person and let me know a few years ago his name and we met and hung out a few years ago.
 
Since I have had no contact, i've been searching for news,  Unfortunately im saddened to say I found he has passed away back in February.
 
Many did not know but he had been fighting cancer for a few years.  It seems the cancer was just too much.

Out of respect I will not put any personal details out there, I did contact his wife and confirmed, and she would rather it be kept private.
 
We've lost another hell of a friend. R.I.P Wyld you crazy old fucker...

Rest in peace Wyld, and my condolences to his family.
I hope he'll be having lots of cookies there!

I will consider moving some funding around when I make my donations to the main server in support of the Ren servers please consider firing up a Java version of Minecraft for cross platform players only if its feasible to do so with enough support. "Let me know how this develops.

Hey Guys,
 
So I know we haven't done much on the forums in the last year plus. Just wanted to give a quick update to recent changes:
 
Donation goals have been updated (finally). Our server bills were recently lowered thanks to some couponing and frugal shopping around by @Cronus and myself. Our primary server bills are now only $60.00 USD per month which includes everything we currently host: Renegade (NewMaps, BlackEagle, reb00b, Mutant Co-Op, etc), this website, our domain costs (including C&C IRC), and forum licensing costs.
 
In addition, I have added two more goals you can see on the sidebar of the main forums: Renegade-X and Minecraft servers; these are small expansion goals of $20 and $10 respectively, and we hope to make available to you. These are separate goals from our main server bills to more clearly indicate what servers have more (financial) support. All funds will still be pooled into the general fund, though.
 
Forum cleanup has been initiated. Those of you with access to our Premium and Development Area will notice their descriptions have been changed to redirect traffic to our Discord. These forums are archived (read-only) for the time being. Not sure what we'll do with them yet. I went ahead and removed the Unreal Tournament and ARK sections (posts moved to our archive board) since there was no activity in them and since we no longer host a redirect service.
 
Server and development updates are very slowly progressing. @Unstoppable has been working on a multitude of projects ranging from a new Discord bot, Black Eagle's CTF server including a ranking page for it, and a secret-ish project with me for MPF. I haven't kept up in development as much as I should have, but I'll be getting back into the swing of things in the next couple months hopefully. We now host a development server for @reborn so that he can create some goodies for MPF.
 
Some personal updates for the staff:
 
I (Genesis) have been out of commission for a while due to PC issues and some minor mental health needs (nothing serious; a little bit of anxiety). I've just started my University career really late it feels (30 years old) given the career with which I'm aiming, and I've been tired from writing so much. 
 
@unknown has been dealing with forest fires in Australia recently. He also maintains our GS02 game server (NewMaps) primarily, and he manages to coordinate everyone well enough and keep everyone updated on the happenings of the servers and community.
 
@Wyld has been incommunicable for a while, and no one has been able to reach him for over a year now.
 
@Cronus has been just working at his day job and chilling and doing IT work for Totem Arts (the team behind Renegade-X). 
 
@alexrirak has been working at his day job and chilling. He pops in often to check on things and do some small coding projects and forum fixes.
 
@FeaR has been providing a PayPal account for your donations and working.

Hi all,
 
We had a very nice service this afternoon, All of the family and lots of friends were there to pay their respect for Jan.
Im glad to read so much of all of you, it means a lot to all of our family!
 
hahah that coffee machine lol yeah it does have a ring to it
That did carry him through many nights playing...almost crosseyed but not giving up to solve any or help any one who needed it.
 
As for the expenses, all is covert. But thank you very much.
Jan has made sure my mom is well taken care of, thats the person he was.
 
My mom is Lien Rolvink, she is also on Facebook.  https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100004716136785&fref=pb&hc_location=friends_tab
 
I know she would love to hear from you all, she also knows how much  you all ment to Jan, and many have also talked with her while Jan was playing.
The stories you all shared i think would feel like a warm blanket of comfort. She's hurting a lot, as expected and i know it will mean the world to her to hear from you all.
 
I will remain  on MPF in honor of my brother, and all of you here for being the wonderfull friends you have been to him.
As you are his friend, you are mine!
 
If any have questions feel free to ask, or post some for me on my FB https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000511690900
 
Jan is at peace now, i want to thank you all again for the reply's and it has been warming to all of us during these hars days.
 
Take care, thanks for all and have fun!!
 
Best regards,
 
Sander
 
 

We didn't have a long time friendship. Just less than 3 months.
 
You may rest in peace @zunnie. My condolences to his family. This community thanking you for your projects, maps, supports and more that I can't remember. We will not forget you. We will miss you. That's still shocking.
 
I don't have much words to say. Someone like you will not ever in this community. Our last dinosaur is gone. I hope you're in a coffee heaven now. 😭😭

Hi all, I am Sander, Jan's older brother and i just wanted to say that im very gratefull for all the reply's about my brother sudden death. Its been a shock to us , but i also know he spend many hours..days..years with his friends on MPF Mp, RenX and more. I understand that it comes as a shock to you all as well. I know he really loved playing, talking laughing with you all and i want to thank you for all the good times you all shared with him.

This is devastating news.. As a former MPF admin and developer I spent a lot of time with zunnie. This community was all spurred by him, MPF would not exist in it's current state if not for him. Even if I've had issues in the past here causing me to depart this place, it all doesn't even matter with my best friend Jan passing. 
 
Even though we never met in real life we spent countless sleepless hours developing some stuff for Renegade and various other games over the 7 years i knew him.... Countless hours talking over TeamSpeak, countless hours getting frustrated cause we couldn't get something to work only to find out that it was something so simple we overlooked.... as I write this I am in tears... I have so many good memories with Jan and it breaks my damn heart to hear this news... I will always cherish the time we had together my friend and I really hope you are at peace
 
 
Kevin Yanez aka Mauler
 
I will always remember you....
Love you Jan..
