That is amazing! I saw the post and thought "Oh cool. I have a chance to... nope it's already closed." lol. Congo-ratz on reaching your goal so quickly.
Thank you for hosting this server for us. I was wanting to play for a while and when I saw this was here, I jumped at it. I also want to say your post was unexpected. I mean it's unusual for me to see a private server to be, what appears to be, so well organized. I don't mean to disparage anyone, I am just... thank you. You people are amazing and I am grateful for all you are doing.
