MyInternetServices.com Clan Sponsorship goes LIVE!

Re: MyInternetServices.com Clan Sponsorship goes LIVE!

Complaining is not going to help you get sponsored, no matter how much **** you aren't trying to start

I don't really think anyone was complaining, they were just wondering how the selections were made, yes it does seem a bit odd that a clan with so much already gets a sponsorship, and thats all people were asking. I'm not saying its wrong, or WTF!!!! WHERES MY SERVER!!!!, I know its all done with a business in mind... gotta make money somehow... but to me it does seem a bit strange that a clan, who already RENTS gaming servers, gets the first sponsorship. Its kind of like GM giving Ford a brand new car.... ummm they make there own cars, so why would they need a free one?

I think thats where most people are coming from... its not complaining, or whinning, alot of people just don't understand the process thats all.

I say good luck to everyone, and congrates to those who've already won, theres 99 more to go, so lets all keep our fingers crossed! =)

I may be a new poster but I have been a long time reader of totalbf2.com - and its finally time to post my two cents.



Supertech you have to look at this from a business point of view. I can almost promise that there are going to be a good amount of clans that get sponsored that have 5-10 Servers, and other sponsorships. The truth is, the clan is known. By myinternetservices.com sponsoring them they will get the hits they need to possibly make a sale and another customer. Yes myinternetservices.com is doing a contest however there ultimate goal just like any business is to expand and not just throw money away.

If they just sponsored clans that had no servers, little league experience, and not a solid foundation they have a good chance that they will not make anything off that clan – and the sponsorship could possibly be a waste to MIS. Yes this is a contest, however this isn’t just give to the needy. Plus bro there’s 99 more chances. Just sit back and relax.





They are not going to give you the insight on how the selection system works. You can tell by the application and requirements this is not a raffle-type sponsorship. Its sort of like applying for a job, you don’t know what they are looking for you are just hoping they will call you back.

People these servers are expensive. Just do some research on how much a dedicated server cost and the amount of clans they are going to sponsor.

For example:

Say a Decent Dedicated Server cost 290 Dollars a month. MIS has said that they will not fill a server past 128 Slots. So take 100 Clans Mutliply by 32 and you have 3200 Slots which comes out to 25 Servers. 25 Servers at 290 Dollars comes to a little over 7,000 dollars a month. Assumming all 100 Clans have there server active. Which won't happen for a couple of months. You are looking at 7000 dollars a month, which probably means they will be spending 20-30 Grand on this.

I would like to think that myinternetservices.com probably has support and sponorships on the side to help float the bill but regardless they are responsible for it all.

And yes some of you may say, they most likely own space at a Data Center. And that they don't have to pay for the monthly rentals. This is most likely true, but have you seen how much it cost to rent space?? And on top of it, if they are actually renting space they have to buy there own servers. So the cost of the bill may not be as much as 20-30 grand all togther when this is done and over with but it won't be cheap.

So with all this said, Give them a Break till its all done and over with. They are spending so much money. Just be thankful you have the chance to win and if it doesn't happen better luck next time. Complaining is not going to help you get sponsored, no matter how much **** you aren't trying to start

Do you need a job? :)

Re: MyInternetServices.com Clan Sponsorship goes LIVE!

Yeah, that makes sense Frostesh. Wanna get the most publicity possible. Guess we're all just hoping for a sponsorship =p just standard human nature to feel greedy and try to find a reason why you should be rewarded.

I think nobody's trying to start ****, they just want some more insight as to how the selection process works. I'm assuming its a raffle-type system seeing as how TPG seems to have plenty of servers already. Not trying to start **** here, and I appreciate that MyIS is doing this, but just giving my two cents.

Re: MyInternetServices.com Clan Sponsorship goes LIVE!

Well congrates to TPG!
but I wonder about the clan selection as well...

The Perfect General not only already has 6 servers of there own, they also RENT gaming servers at TPGservers.com, and there also a RANKED server provider for BF2 servers...

Also the sponsorship went live on July 12th... yet TPG posted they won a server on July 7th..

MyInternetServices.com has chosen to sponsor TPG as a way to drum up support in the community for their services and websites. According to Greg Howard, CEO of MyInternetServices.com:

"Our goal is to continue to give back to the players that support our company. This is a way for us to say thank you to our clients and to the players that visit our "Total" websites. In the past year MyInternetServices.com has grown in size because of you and we will not forget that! The larger our company becomes the more support we will give to the community."

These guys are really top notch. They are providing TPG with a SF Server for all our players and members to enjoy. Please give them a look!

Re: MyInternetServices.com Clan Sponsorship goes LIVE!

Can I get a confirmation that the real names are accually needed, or if the screennames are ok? Because I submitted mine then found out later the it asks for real names, and I havent gotten an email back on the situation yet.

Oh, and I know there is a couple other Lost Souls Clans out there tat play some BF2. Will having the same name be an issue?

Thanks.
