We agreed on the terms of the partnership and DISC-FF was born. I added Fatty and we started talking about a merger. I saw Fatty was now the owner of DISC and had a Iceworld with a player base. At the time I was looking to expand but I had reached the limit of what I was able to afford each month. As well, a lot of their members were regulars on my Bunkers server. I remembered DISC and Fatty because their Iceworld server was one of the first servers I ever played on when I started CS:S. Around August is when I ran into Fatty and a few of his DISC members playing Dust2 on my server. In the middle of 2011 Candyman suggested I open a server with a default map rotation and I agreed. The Jailbreak and Greatriver were running smoothly and slowly growing each day. In the next month or so I ended up opening a Surf Greatriver server which became the go to server for people who enjoyed that map. In the next few months I started playing a lot of Surf and left the Jailbreak to Candyman and the rest. In April 2011 I moved Jailbreak to the IP it is now. ![]() It got a few player here and there, some of the old players came back to check it out, but for the most part it was dead.įor the next few months I improved our Jailbreak and we started gaining more players each day. In very early 2011 I reopened the old Jailbreak and Bunkers servers, hosting them off my own computer. At first I didn't want too, but after much conversation I gave in. On a random day six months later I get messages from Candyman and Don begging me to reopen the Jailbreak server. Candyman, Don and Tim opened a new Jailbreak server where our members could still play, it was a complete failure. Shortly after I left CS:S for about six months. One day, out of the blue, the host decided to stop hosting servers and shut us down. I was unaware that the person hosting Spadez servers was a online friend of the owner. Two months after the merger another devastating event happened. I made the choice to merge my group with another called Spadez. Having this happen in such a short period made it very hard for me to continue to pay for the servers by myself. ![]() Evan was getting married, Blondie was moving and Moose was going into the Army. ![]() Evan, Blondie, and Moose who were paying me monthly to keep the servers up, all left within a two week period. In early 2010 something drastic happened. We had a few servers but our two most popular ones by far were the Jailbreak and the Bunkers servers. March of 2009 I started my new group Fire Friendly. Evan, Candyman, Blondie, Don, Moose, Scottish, Dangerous and Tim all played key parts in helping me grow our Jailbreak server. ![]() It wasn't until 2009 when I opened my first Jailbreak server that things really started to improve. Evan, my Co-Leader at the time, helped me run the Bunkers server and also paid for half of the costs monthly.Īround mid 2008 I started trying to expand the group and made many different servers trying to gain a player base. This clan is also where I got the name Fearts, which I use on other websites as alias. I also ran an Iceworld scrimmage team called FTS, which stood for Fear the Squad. Back then our server was called Fire Friendly Bunkers, but the community I ran was called Best of Bunkers. Fire Friendly first started back in 2007 with an Iceworld Bunkers server.
