Today in AvaMods History -> OG AvaMods Server Shutdown
It was 8 years ago on October 27th 2011 that AvaMods officially shutdown their original Day of Defeat gameserver.
It was one of the hardest decisions ever made here at AvaMods. There was a lot of reasons as to why the decision was made as well as a lot of second guessing on whether it was the correct decision. In the end the timing felt right to finally pull the plug and take a step back. The original server had ran from November 27th 2005 until October 27th 2011.
Little did we know that it wouldnt be so easy to just move on after AvaMods. After a couple years of enjoying the freedom that resulted from no longer needing to maintain and administer the gameserver, AvaMods made a few attempts at bringing back its famous Day of Defeat gameserver. Our hearts weren't completely into the first couple of attempts, but we finally got our shit together and made a full fledged comeback with AvaMods 5.o in September 2016.
While its impossible to say what may happen here in the future, the current roadmap has us riding out Day of Defeat till the end....
