FUNDS RUN LOW

by Hazed

It's been a tough couple of months, recovering from the big disaster that took out our entire server so that we had to rebuild everything from scratch and manually restore everybody's characters. But despite the days when we weren't "on the air" and the months when things weren't exactly normal, the bills still had to be paid - in fact, the cost of the technicians to help us get things up and running again just added to the bills that had to be paid!

And so it's time once again for me to hold out the begging bowl. Although Fed2 is free to play, it's not free to maintain, and in order to pay the costs we rely on donations from players.

If that sounds too much like charity, well, when you give us money, in return you get slithy toves which can be exchanged in the game for a wide range of useful and fun things - from the navcomp upgrade that lets you move around Sol space easily, to the license to get married. You can read the list of things that slithies can be used for here.

Slithy toves cost $5 each. You can make one-off purchases of slithy toves or you can subscribe and receive four each month at a discount. Whichever method you choose, do it here.
