To boil it down simply for everyone Ill put it this way. Some people thought they were better then others and took it too far.

 

[Kill Me]

As long as we keep our servers filled and expanding into new games once in a while, I see myself being here for a loooong time.

This is a great story! Shows that a small group of people can create such a big thing, everything is possible and lets keep eGO up and let it grow even bigger!

Ya, I remember playing on Donner one day. I was on TS talking with Tech Sgt. Starbuck and Kamikaze Tommy comes into our channel and pulls me away. After a little talk, he told me I got my O


Ava and Donner were the formative servers for my beginning time at eGO

Since John's wife won't read this, I'll give you a bit more info on how payments were made:

I would get checks from Mike and cash from John. John couldn't justify sending too many "letters" to me, especially in the age of email, so I'd get greeting cards around major holidays. Inside the card I'd find the rest of the payment. The first time I opened a Christmas card and $100 fell out I was in shock.

Running a GSP is not as profitable as many people think... the great thing about cash was we could go out and have a little fun. Moose (my business partner) and I would use the cash to buy lunch for a few days.

EGO wasn't pulling in lots of money to cover their servers like they are now so we leveraged a shared server to help offset costs. For a long time eGO shared a server w/ Merrill's Marauders, Resistance Platoon, and the BF2 Combat (Tour of Duty) Ranked Training Servers.

What may have started small has grown into something of which you all should be proud. Keep up the good work!
