JasonF Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I heard of a GSP that got bought out today and started to think about all of the GSPs that have bit the dust in the past 5 yrs. I told Doug we should start a thread listing the GSPs that have bit the dust. Personally I have not been in the business as long as some in these forums, but in my 1 1/2 yrs here I have seen numerous ones go under. So here is my short list of GSPs that I know that are no longer around 1) CyberSeals 2) KillerPings 3) Asylum Game Servers 4) Game Connectors 5) Klean Servers 6) Operation Gaming 7) Hyped Gaming 8) GriffinRun 9) Aim2Game 10) Galore Game Servers 11) Blood Servers 12) Invision Gaming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SickPuppy Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 In the past 6 months we have purchased AFG Servers 321/SLP Servers What happened to KillerPings, when did they go under? I had someone in my livechat a few weeks ago asking me if I would match their price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KP-Dallas Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Your Prices are lower HAHAHAHA killerpings were $1.45/slot and they went under back in January 1,2008. So thats old news.My question is why the hell would some one ask for a higher price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KP-Dallas Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I used to work for killerPings they were 1.50 a slot i believe the last month or so they were 1.45 and 2 or 3 weeks in to the 1.45 they droped to 1.00/slot to get customers but in the end they went under with no warning to any of the staff nor customers me and tom tried to notify as many customers as we could when we found out 1 day before they went and had the site shut down............

So thats old news.My question is why the hell would some one ask for a higher price It was someone that logged into my livechat using the name Allen, he stated that he had a server with killerpings and wanted to know if I could match their $.50 a slot rate. I told him no and I did not even bother checking to see if there was a killerpings GSP. Probably just some kid trying to get a discount on a game server. He might have ment that he was an old customer of KillerPings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DougK94 Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Just take a look at the members list of this forum, I bet 3/4 of the 321 registered people that have included URL's to their site are no longer around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creed3020 Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 You could get a whole slew of names from when The Planet dropped Cortex. We were right there with you Doug and moved to TCAdmin right after we got the official punch. Though it had been obvious for months with the total lack of support. There are aspects of Cortex I still miss to this day GaloreGameServers StealthServers (Trying to sell) Im sure more I cant think of. GaloreGameServers...? The website seems to be up and functional without any news saying otherwise, or did you mean they changed ownership? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also looks like they did not add CoD WaW so I would assume they are not progressing and just letting things go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Can't believe Aim2Game died out like that, they were sort of still active in sponsoring teams and events. Good luck, all I can say to all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECF Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 You will see CBL pop up again. They are in bed with another developer that is building a game panel which is supposed to be as good as ours... It is linux only right now, but they are talking about porting it over to windows. I took a look at it and it needs quite a bit of work to even match the feature set of ours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TCAdmin Rocks the world of course. Swift is still a ways off from a feature set that can match. Not to mention v2 is going to smoke it out of the water in the state it is now.
