That is why we need to wait until Jan, once DGL lets us know the format we can decide on how many slots we need and the funding framework needed

Hmmmm you know what i was thinking, we could try get a server similar to the =BMW= one (minus the dick admins). I mean everyone played on that server and the clan =BMW= became quite well known. So if we create a public Grrr server where the community can play it will help spread the name and attract potential sponsors??
You just need to create that initial bite, so we log on and invite our friends from other clans, the friends list will do the rest of the work for us. Just a thought?

I would like our own decent sized public server to play on, hopefully BF4 will have better ways to catch the cheats and macro abusers and if we can admin it correctly then it should be popular and help build our brand in the process.
I want an honest game so that when I know you are better than i am it makes it sweeter when i stick the knife in and for this i have put my money where my mouth is and put 2 grand in the slushie towards server costs to help take the money factor out of the decision.

Geez dude, thank you very much, but don't think all the cost should be on you, this is a clan and all should add in for the sake of the clan, with the number of guys now surely the costs can't be that high if equally divided for a 32 slot server.
Once again THANK YOU for your contribution, give this man a BELLS !!!

Well mate, it seems like you've just sponsored us a server on your own... thank you very much for the contribution.
R2K will pretty much pay for a one year rental of a 32 player server. Given that you made the contribution, you can decide when we should have it live. I can pre-order now if you like?
Anyone else inspired with generosity as a result of Kalgat's donation, feel free to add donations of your own!!

Jarrod, as a matter of interest, how many monthly contributors are there?

This is not an exact, because some people do put money in occasionally on an ad-hoc basis, but looking over the last four months:
3 people contribute R200 per month
1 person contributes R100 per month
2 people contribute R50 per month
Not brilliant considering the number of members we have. Would love to get more people contributing.

maybe if the "achievements" is updated every now and again people may start doing the right thing for the wrong reasons... ;-) Just kidding, you are doing an awesome job on the finances Jarrod.
