Condolences to his family during this difficult time.
 
RIP buddy <3

RIP buddy <3

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...

Wow.. I’ve known zunnie for over 10+ years. Great guy who loved to chat, code, and play games! I will miss him dearly.
 
My condolences to his family and friends during this difficult time. 
 
RIP buddy.

omg, i remember that too! Good times.

I've been watching this thread for a while trying to formulate my thoughts and struggling to accept this is real. This is so unexpected. This is a great loss to the community. Zunnie was always trying to help everyone and striving to help people enjoy all the games he worked on. He was the reason I became involved with MP-Gaming and eventually MPF. Throughout the years I've learned so much from and will truly miss him. He's had such an amazing effect on so many people. He was a great friend and an overall great guy.
 
RIP Jan.

I'm very saddened to hear the news, We ran separate communities but Zunnie was always around to help out. He was one of the friendliest guys I met on Renegade and he has done a lot for the game. On behalf of myself and Rencorner I offer my sincerest condolences. We truly lost a great guy and may he Rest in Peace.

When I woke up to all the notifications about this, I wasn't quite sure how to to take it.  It just didn't seem real, I even checked to see if its april fools day or something.
 
He was one of the greatest guys i've met,  never witnessed him mad much.  always helping, always doing anything he can, without thinking of himself.  
 
Truly was a great man. He'll be missed.  I hope his family is ok,  he always talked to me about his nieces he loved so much.   May he rest in peace.

It does work. And yeah that's my backup.

done
 
 
haha no idea ^^

When will you be Ren Admin, wnxserver?

@Cronus migrated GSA master to a temporary host tonight prior to the move, so server owners need to restart their FDS's to be listed on the current master.
 
When our host's migration is completed, we'll update the DNS to point back to the original one (which will require an FDS restart).
 
---
A side note: It may be possible to reload instead of restarting the FDS if you're on DA by editing the GSA master list to point to a different URL: renmaster-backup.cncirc.net though our tests with our own server didn't yield success.
 
Addendum:
 
Here's the configuration line for da.ini:
 
GameSpyMasterServers=master.gamespy.com|renmaster.cncnet.org|master-gsa.renlist.n00b.hk|renmaster.cncirc.net|renmaster-backup.cncirc.net  

Nah players are all good, It should just work, It doesnt show all the servers since alot of them haven't restarted their server. But the active ones are on the list.
 
Today or tonight sometime I'll move the DNS back to the main server.
 
Going forward any server owners should have both of the following DNS in their MasterGSA List
 
renmaster.cncirc.net
renmaster-backup.cncirc.net

We have recently made some changes to our administrative structure. Kickmofohas informed us that he would like to step down in order to be able to devote more time to his personal life. This something most of us can understand very well. Moderating for a server and especially being the leader is like having another job expect that it is unpaid. There is a lot of work that goes into it and most of it is unseen in the background. While we regret to see him go we understand that real life must always come first. Kick has done a lot of great things for furthering and advancing our Renegade Server. He will remain an admin in our community but will no longer be the leader of the Renegade Division.
 
Taking Kick's place as the leader will be r3surr3Ktx. He has really grown in our community and made it his home. He has taken up many projects that no one else wanted to and has put in a huge amount of work into both our Renegade server and community as a whole. r3 plays renegade frequently, has built rapport with the players and is willing to speak his mind and bring new ideas to the table. He has done a great job and proved himself a reliable and dedicated contributor to our community. We cannot think of a better person to lead our Renegade section.
 
Please join us in thanking Kick for the great work he has done and congratulating r3 on his new position.
 
Alex & Fear

Yes you're welcome

Yes but not everyone has it, in fact not many.

Don't think I've talked to him before but I've seen him play here and over at rencorner. It's a sad day in the renegade community.
 
RIP

I have couple extra ones.
 
PM me if you can't find one.
