Server shutdown
« on: October 23, 2009, 09:05:56 PM »
I am sorry to announce that the littlewhitey MTA:Race server will be shut down in a couple of days, and that it will probably never come back, not even on MTA 1.0. I had lots of great moments while playing on the server (and I think most of you had too), but we are now forced to give the server up and move on. I want to thank all the regular players, and all active/inactive admins: Alpha, raz0, MCvarial, Knuckles, Plop, Mitch, and of course, littlewhitey himself.

If you want to know the details: last year, Woet took over littlewhitey's hosting company (gta-host.com), and agreed that he would continue to let our server run free of charge, just like littlewhitey did for years. Now, Woet has suddenly decided that he doesn't want to follow the agreement anymore, and forces us to pay for the server, for which there simply isn't any money.

What a dick, jees. Anyhow, too bad, i remember playing on littlewhitey when MTA:race was still active, and i still had XP :p MTA:Race > SA:MP imo, racing/driving vehicles is probably the only thing in GTA:SA which i was really good at.

MTA:Race > SA:MP

8 Euros for a 32 slots player server, according to serverFFS

I would be happy to take over from Woet and pay for the server,
8 euros a month isn't much :)

It isn't.
It is the fact that none of us can pay at all that's the issue, not the amount.

good timing for me to check the forums back....

sucks to hear that, I'm not really aware of the server's current activity sitation but really bad news I hear now :(

Even tho I didn't play since a long while, it's sad to hear it's all going to an end after all the server's "history". LW was one, if not the best server out there for MTA:Race and probably one of the few one still active.

I know Cygnus, Alpha and others were still working on keeping the server clear and in order, so much work going to waste. I hope you guys find a way to do other things in replacement.... Since I started playing you guys were around, I left and you were still there, I check out and see you are still kicking around and the server is going to get shut. It's hard to think about it.


Quick question.. are the forums going to be kept up or it's all of LW's servers that are going to get down like SA:MP ones, stats, website, etc?
