My Goodbye

[[NotD] localhost]

Hello my fellow gamers,

It has been fun throughout these more than 5 years to game, chat and make new friends in this community. I started this community when I was 15 years old and had just started my Introduction to Visual Basic class. I was so excited to get my first virtual dedicated server that one fateful morning I ended up spending all day creating NotD Zombiemod. I never expected NotD Zombiemod to be so successful..

We were one of the biggest ZombieMod communities, but we changed focus over the years. What didn't change was the constant flow of new people into the community and I am glad I was able to meet all of you. Most of all, I am glad I was able to provide a place for everyone to escape for a brief moment of their daily lives and allow them to kill zombies. But my time to manage the servers and code new updates has come to an end. I need to go onto other things that demand my time, otherwise I know I will be managing NotD for the next 50 years. I will come back as a gamer and I am sure you all will see me sometimes on Steam; gaming.

Since I feel it would be a crime to leave the CS:S community without providing all of my plugins for public use, I have provided them below. The Zombieriot package includes everything you need to make your own ZombieHell server. I have also included the Store and the Battlefield plugin. I hope you all enjoy my work as much as I had fun creating it.

You will need 7Zip to extract the files.

Store: http://www.footesbooks.com/notd/store.7z
Battlefield: http://www.footesbooks.com/notd/battlefield.7z

With regards to the donations, I have disabled the donation box, so that means that anyone has VIP is now the only ones who will ever have it. That is my thanks to everyone who has donated and kept NotD alive through the good times and bad. The donations will be used to continue the existence of the servers when they are not being DDoS'ed. I will visit the forums on occasion to do the bare minimum CS:S updates, but I will not stay up till 2 AM debugging the problems. Hopefully, my code stands the test of time. Forgot to add that I will be reliquishing a lot of control to Death. He has done a lot for the community and deserves to have the ability to keep watch over it.

Peace & Love to all!

Its been good gaming with you man. I would like to personally point out that your a very giving man, sacrificing your time for a gaming community that you don't have much time to enjoy. I wish you the best of luck for your future career. I'm gonna miss the old days of you banning me permanently XD. Hope see ya around man.

Local without your hard work and determination over all those years I never would have met so many good friends online, the laffs i have had with so many people from so many places never woulda been possible without you.. I'm sure you get this alot..But thank you, and good luck in all that you want to do and have happen..

We all love you Local, and again thank you for all the years of hard work you have done for this community. In your absence I will do my very best to keep everything going, and not let NotD die. This is your community, and will always be your community if you ever decide to come back.

Thanks Local for all you have done for this community. I don't really know you because we haven't met ingame or in chat, but reading from your post that you have been with this community since you were 15 years old makes me lucky to even be with in the same community with you. Once again, thanks Local and I wish you greatness in the rest of your life.

Local, you've done a fantastic job on keeping the servers and community running and alive, and being in NotD has been the best times I've ever had on CS:S and still is, you will be missed very much!

Congratulations Death, I know you will not let us down!!!

Wow I wasn't expecting that..
But hey, this may mean that you'll have more time for yourself and for getting to enjoy the game yourself some more.
If you're coming back to Germany again you should hit me up and meet up with me or something.

Hope I get to see more of you in game (as well as myself)
