Server locations.

When you first make a connection you are connected direct to our office. It gives you the arena list, verifies login excetera.

Game servers are collocated with AT&T in north dallas.

Download servers, and some times some web page traffic are collocated with The Planet.

So its the server we first connect to that Skuzzy has buildt? He has said in a different post that he made it.

All the servers and computers at HTC were all built in-house, except for the ones at 'The Planet' (misc. operations).

personally i dont care where the servers are, how much money HT makes, if Skuzzy built the front end or whathaveyou. all i know is i LOVE this game and I thank HT and Skuzzy and the rest of the HT crew every month by sending in my 15 beans. i'd prolly send alot more if that's what it came down to.

i have a very crazy life. raising children. in the military. running a small business on the side. AHII is my vacation from the everyday. i don't watch much TV. i play this.

thanks for everything HT. i'm a fan and always will be.

P.S. Can we please have a b25? the one with the NASTY NASTY nose cannon? :D

I think even the title of the thread is tacky. It's none of anyone's business. How would you feel if your boss decided to hold a meeting with all your co-workers to discuss your salary, living expenses and details of your credit history?

Posting on this BBS is talking to HTC face to face, and real-world courtesy doesn't end at your keyboard.
