Dear all, I want to be transparent here on where your money is going. If you donated, I save most of it for server funding. It costs about $125/6 months. I have raised around 250 so far. However, not all this money goes towards keeping the server alive. Instead, sometimes I buy addons for the server. Tomorrow or saturday/sunday, I will be introducing 2 new custom addons. THESE WILL BE BIG CHANGES (nah not so much). 1 change: I will be making it 2 PR rounds. 1 PR round on the 6th round and I'm extending the map times so 7 rounds per map. After the regular PR round, there will be another similar one, called TTT events or something. This is like deagle only headshots, giant heads, 150% increase speed, etc. I think this would spice the server up a bit. 2nd change: I will be adding a new traitor weapon. Something you've all been waiting for... AN EXPLOSIVE RV! You can drive this rv and then explode it. Boom. Right? Just don't rdm... Lastly, I wanted to say I donated $5 from someone's donation to the refugees fleeing the civil war in Syria. They need the money, so sorry I used some of that money to give to them. I feel like we should all be doing something nice to give the people in need. Next time, the $5 will come out of my own money, but I think it is much better for a community as a whole to give even something tiny to others. If you're upset that I used ur money to donate to guys running from war: . GN bros. I have lots of studying so see u l8r.

Awesome. All of this is great. I'm sure no one minds that you donated 5 dollars to the refugees, in fact, I'd prefer it. And the new addons seem great. Like I said earlier, thanks for putting effort into your server. You're an awesome owner.

Haha, but don't give me too much credit. This server was heavily influenced by an older server, but it died 2 years ago. In fact, most of the rules come from the old server and the donation ideas (that's why there was donor mod/admin). Game wise, this server was based off my friend's server (he made the HUD), but his server "died" recently. Everything else was mine. I remember I started off with no one, and then Meez came. I was honored and I still am. Meez still plays which is awesome!
But the main point is this server mixed 2 servers in one. Although I liked both owners, I try to do the stuff they did not do. Thanks for the praises and all, but I used to be a gmod server player just like you guys. After 2 yeas of playing, I felt I learned enough from TTT to know what other people would want: fast dl times, no annoying loud music in loading screen, REAL LONG RULES THAT EXPLAIN EVERYTHING and !models or !maps or !weapons. I really like to give the players the power. I also like to forgive A LOT. If you learn anything from this server, let it be: forgiveness and problem solving.

Backstab being selfless and donating money instead of using from himself. Then again, I am greedy when it comes to money.

To be honest backstab my phone is at 3 percent right now so I gotta post this, I think it's great for the person that donated the money and they would be happy either way if you used the money for donations or not to be honest I think it's awesome that your doing this. P.S I'm trying to get a promotion in my job so I can pay my parents back xD

Money should be spent, but it matters on what you buy or give.

M9k is kinda trash imo. You have to do a lot of work to convert them to TTT .
