Total number of registered users on the forums ->

Community established -> September 10th 2010. (4 years 11 months)

Amount of work per week put into SFT:
TowelieDOH -> 10-20h (2 daily from mon-fri and 10 between sat and mon)
Dpa1991 -> 10-40h (depends on how much work there is to do. All I know is, it's not uncommon for him to work day and night during updates and other things
FearThe1337 -> 5-30h (depends on how much there is to do and whether stuff breaks during that time)
saywhat2365 -> 5-20h (He works on pretty much all the minigame servers, factions, creative and then helps me with survival stuff and so on)

Our Infrastructure:
Survival -> Xeon 4c8t, 64GB Ram, 3*300gb SSD
Pixelmon -> Xeon 4c8t, 64gb ram, 3*120gb SSD
Factions,Creative,Minigames, etc -> Xeon 6c12t, 128GB RAM, 3*300GB SSD
Unturned, Terraria -> Xeon 4c8t, 16GB RAM, 2*1TB SAS
Webserver -> Xeon 4c8T, 32GB RAM, 3*120GB SSD
Costs -> About ~550$/mo for all

What I am trying to explain with this post is that it takes a lot of time and effort from multiple people to run/manage a community like SFT.

Thank you for choosing SFT, please consider all these numbers and the work put into SFT.

I'm sorry for not including everyone. There's a lot more people that dedicate a lot of time and resource sto SFT: Developers, Architects, EventHosts, Staff (in no particular order), and we love them all!

Honestly, it's pitiful how some people come in and just rip SFT off. Although the topic on said player creating a server is a matter of controversy, it's pretty obvious that it's just not right... To steal and then to bluff... What kind of attitude is that?!

I know for a fact that SFT wouldn't be possible without Towelie, Dpa, Fear, and Saywhat's constant efforts. And I truly wish to thank them for creating this wonderful community, that I could be a part of... I'm insanely proud for the fact that SFT has grown to where it is right now, and I couldn't thank you guys more for allowing me to join you guys for the ride.

I couldn't ask for a better community to staff... Thank you so much for giving me the chance to staff your community.

Call me Bond. Bright Bond.

Yay.... making smores with Towelie!  Thanks for the numbers Towelie... I for one often take for granted what you and the rest of the people that have built this server actually do for the rest of us staff and players alike. I really mean it when I say THANK YOU for all that you guys and gals have done for us here!

Just a reminder:

- Players are allowed to play on other servers and own a server, however, IF: a) you don't advertise it to SFT players (regardless of the method, whether it's ingame or skype) and b) You avoid mentioning it.

- Staff members are not allowed to have a server, or if they do own one, to make this known to us at the time of their promotion.

I think this is actually the best post I've seen on the forums. Not many people know how much work is needed to run such an amazing server like this.

Thank you everyone who has created and helped with the server! :D

Jk, thanks for all the hard work.
Um, no those are the player profiles xD That's how I count players - I look in the player profiles dir. Keep in mind we delete inactive players profiles after 90 days of inactivity (having too many slows down world saves / causes lag)
