Does any of you guys know if there are ppl or organizations that sponsor clans or host servers for free like CS 1.6 servers or Wolf ET without paying just by advertising the sponsor on our website and putting it up on the clan name in any leagues etc etc etc... ?? pls if some1 does know things like that let me know im damn desperate i dont want to give 50 quid for a CS server a month

Cheers

You'd be better off hosting it yourself on this front -

Gaming servers are HIGHLY expensive in upkeep, seeing as they require so much bandwidth. With a website, the most action it will see constantly, is a chat room.

With a game, the frames have to be updated EVERY MILLISECOND. You could make the smallest hair of a move, and have it register on the screen, and have to send and recieve 5kb for each of the tiniest movements.

What's a Quid?

I used www.nukeservers.com when I had a server. Best prices on the net, believe me, when I was looking for game server hosting I looked for at like a week, then I found nukeservers smile.gif Only $1.75 per player per month. Once again, best prices on the net.

If I were you, I would talk to some of my friends and see if any of them could host a server. But it might be that none of them can, otherwise you would have to go the $ route.
