Section 1
A milestone made by players
For the first time in Strickland history, the cost of running our servers for the entire month of October 2025 is fully covered by community donations. That’s huge! Thank you to everyone who chipped in — and to everyone who shows up to play and keep the servers alive.
Hosting these boxes isn’t “set it and forget it.” It’s daily work: configuring mods and mutators, testing
updates, fixing crashes,
chasing weird map bugs, tuning performance, restarting at ugly hours, and keeping cheaters/griefers out so games
stay fun.
When you donate, you’re not tipping a jar — you’re literally keeping the lights on.
Section 2
Every role matters
Donors: you stepped up and covered the bill. That takes pressure off and lets us focus on making the experience
better.
Players: every session, invite, and bit of teamwork is the reason these servers exist at all.
Whether you donate, carry objectives, or rally the squad on voice — it all counts.
Section 3
What this means
We’ll keep iterating on rotations and balance, polish the Insurgency Sandstorm experience, expand the site, and
keep this community as strong and alive for as long as we can.
If you like where this is going, keep playing, bring friends, and — if you’re able — use the donate button in
the footer any time.
No pressure. Appreciation either way.
Section 4
From the bottom of my heart... thank you all!
I appreciate every single one of you — Hank
