My server term ends in a few weeks and I doubt I want to spend more time and money on it so i'm planning on stopping it.
However: the server is doing pretty well. It usually has +20 people on the weekends but sometimes it's even 30 people online and the record was 40 online. Only lately it's a bit more quiet during the week, but it might be because i'm not there alot anymore.
It would be a shame letting a good and succesful server go to waste so i'm wondering if anyone here that wants a server like this would be interested in taking over? Obviously the server would be yours then since you are the new owner, but obviously everyone including yourself wants the server to stay the same. So please don't respond if you wanna change the server or make it x5 or something completely different. The point is that you take over, not change it completely. You would be better off renting a new server then. It's supposed to be x1000 and keep it pretty much like it is with all its plugins (no blueprints, no workbenches, teleportation, kits, shop and so on).
In the past i've done this too for other games: Finding someone who wants to take over a succesful server when I didn't want to spend time and money on it instead of cancelling it and letting everyone lose their home.
This has been proven to be much appreciated by everyone.
A) Me that doesnt want to do it anymore, i will probably only come to play every now and then
B) Players that dont lose their favorite server/their home
C) You, the new admin who has a succesful server without needing to do much for it themselves.
A win-win-win situation. However I can't find anyone ingame or in my steam friends list that would be interested so I thought i'd try this but it might be a risk cause I dont know the person that would want to take over.
So yeah, i'm wondering if anyone here would maybe be interested in taking over a x1000 server and continue it's legacy.
Obviously it would be your job to keep all the plugins up to date and do the weekly wipe and to update everything on the monthly forced wipe.
Please only respond if you're an adult and have experience with rust servers and also the time to do this (especially on thursdays) so there is a better chance the server would thrive on.
