Hi. My name is Ted (Anagami in game), and I've been playing on Sylvan Heart with a group of friends for a few months now. I've recently quit playing wow because I enjoy UO more. I'm interested in helping out Sylvan Heart. I have Linux/Wintel system administration skills, and work as a computer programmer. For fun, I run a site that offers free internet services at http://www.blueplanethosting.us. If the admins of Sylvan Heart would be open to the idea, I would like to help host the UO server piece on a dedicated Windows or Linux VPS, which I would donate. You would retain full control of the shard of course, I would just be responsible for paying the bill and keeping the operating system up-to-date. You will be able to remote desktop (windows) or SSH (linux) to the server, so the experience of running the shard won't change much. I could help with setting up tasks or cronjobs that ensure the server is restarted when it goes down. Of course I understand that this is my first post on this forum so this message will be received with some skepticism. If my offer sounds interesting/helpful to Sylvan Heart you can contact me by emailing blueplanethosting@gmail.com. I can meet up with the admins in TeamSpeak or Ventrilo, or do a Skype conference to discuss things further. Thanks for reading, --Ted
Thats awesome dude, I think any help would be great right now.
Its great to see people keen on helping out Sylvan. However, right now we already have a server (Marlenus is hosting it), perhaps in the future if something happens, but for now we're all good :P
Okie. Is there a small Sylvan Heart banner I could put on my website?
If you check the Sylvan Heart Site thread, there is one being worked on right now by Deedlit (however is not finished yet)
there's a banner for shard with the code also at www.sulexservices.com/uogateway.htm (http://www.sulexservices.com/uogateway.htm)
