And, yeah, me too dont want big aids or too much aids. It's so symbolic to replace the word "ADs" with a virus name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, is there any threads or topics we can follow to contribute to the reactivation of Project KerbalStuff 1.1? Most of that discussion seems to be happening in the #ckan IRC channel.

stibbons Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 3 hours ago, stibbons said: Apparently that answer is now "start building a replacement". Alright then. I've gotten as far as building out the required infrastructure in a new AWS VPC (the terraform code I've written to do that is still in a private repo, mostly because I haven't thought of a good name for it). My app server is doing the basic provisioning, but I'd barely had a chance to even get a dev environment set up when the bomb dropped, so it'll take me a while to get to the point where I can properly get the app running with puppet. Leaving it there because it's 3am here. Will keep tinkering with what I've got built, although at this point it looks like it's largely academic. Ah well.

Mokmo Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Thanks for your great work and letting other people take over @SirCmpwn, i hope the new guys will acknowledge your priceless contribution. I'm ready to see some simple ads on the site, Google's tend to not have too many surprises on the user side (even less now that they're pushing for the ned of Flash), it might not cover everything money-wise, but it'd help...

It was costing him $180/month, which is alot. Did you ever donate? Just remember he was paying for you to DL most of your mods on a user friendly site, exactly how much did you contribute. If anyone pulled a D1ck move it was both us who used the site and Squads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valerian Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 @SirCmpwn thanks for all that you did, it's sad that things had to happen this way. I hope everything changes to the better, and if the community manages to properly revive KerbalStuff and get steady donations over time (patreon?), I hope you will get a good part of it for all your past efforts!

Kerbal01 Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Kerbalstuff was my go to for mods, except for the few that Didn't have a listing, like MechJeb. Everything else, I got from KS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMS Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I think I dropped by a few times to say "thanks" for things. Probably should have done that a little more. But... "thanks" for things. They were good while they lasted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njmksr Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 (edited) Thank you, @SirCmpwn. You have done great things for the modding community. KerbalStuff will not be forgotten; it was easily thousands of times better than CurseForge. In conclusion, Thank You. You're awesome. [EDIT]: I am glad to see that spacedock.info is a thing. KerbalStuff shall LIVE ON! Edited February 15, 2016 by njmksr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NateDaBeast Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I don't believe I ever thanked you for creating KerbalStuff but it's sad that I have to say it now since the closing of it. KerbalStuff was the best place for mods. Curse will never take your spot. THANK YOU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The community vastly preferred a proper platform for and in a way by them (Mostly to spite Curse I know, but i agree, [expletive] them). But anyway, thanks so much for making some alternative to the awful Curse, SirCmpwn. Edited February 15, 2016 by Aerolfos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
