“Real Talk” and how you can help

/ / News

Here’s the truth–  I have to be honest. I would prefer not to discuss this openly. As the owner, I work hard to keep issues and concerns “backstage” so that all of you do not have to hear about it. However, I believe in fairness and offering an explanation. All of you deserve to know the challenges we face, every day, so that you understand why we have had a few outages. I also believe some of you have the ability to help us.

Imaginears Club has spent years perfecting the ability to offer our valued Guests the most enjoyable, safe and troll-free place in all of Minecraft. What you don’t know are the steps we take to make that happen. That is because our goal is to offer you many MAGICAL moments without you ever having to worry about, or deal with, the issues we personally face on a daily basis.

We strive to make sure you have a consistent experience on Imaginears Club. Whether it is your first or 30th viewing of our world-renowned showings of IROE and WISHES, or one of our many stage productions or events. We always want every Guest to enjoy themselves equally.

We are constantly growing, with thousands of new Guests daily. We continue to spend more money on servers, development and infrastructure to meet those needs. It takes much more effort than you ever see or hear about to keep us running. More money, more time, more sleepless nights, more monitoring of chat…Really, you would have no idea any of this is happening if I were not telling you right now! It’s truly incredible the amount of work all of our unpaid volunteers do to keep Imaginears Club the world’s leader and innovator. An astounding amount of work is done, daily, to make sure shows are on time, chat is clean, servers are running and plugins are updated. All of which happens behind the curtain– “backstage”.

However, with all the work we do to keep Imaginears Club running, we oddly have individuals who are angry at our success and accomplishments. All the good we do, all the safety we offer, somehow makes them mad and want to lash out at our servers. This has come in the form of multiple DDoS attacks against our many servers. DDoS, if you are not aware of the term, means Distributed Denial Of Service attack. Essentially, they hit our network with a lot of traffic so that you, our priority, are either unable to log in or are kicked from the Parks without warning. Ever been kicked off during fireworks? That’s why.

We want to stop this from happening, but it simply hasn’t been in the budget. I, personally, have spent tens of thousands of my personal money on Imaginears Club over the years and I do so gladly and with no reservations, but no matter how much I am able to do, Imaginears Club depends on YOU for donations to keep us running. Your help gives us the ability to protect, expand and develop.

We need your help to make this a priority and a mission. We want to purchase the protection to keep us online 24 hours a day without interruption and free from the bad apples who want to keep you from having the safest, and most fun, experience possible in Minecraft.  We want to keep providing it for years to come, so we’re asking for your help.

All of you have the ability to help us. Some by making large donations, others by sharing this post. Blast this out everywhere. Share it. Retweet it. Let’s see how much we can raise to ensure Imaginears Club is interruption-free for all our Guests. You can help by using any of the links below my signature.

Imagine if every Guest who visited Imaginears Club over the years offered us $1 each. We’d have $500,000+! Now, imagine just 10,000 of you giving, right now, any amount– and you can see how helpful that can be.

You, your friends, your family – everyone deserves to have a place like Imaginears Club. Help us keep the magic alive and refill that pixiedust.

 

Sincerely,
