Well, we didn't reach our month goal and as a result, we're forced to shut down our servers. We're very sorry to those that used our servers and loved them but we simply didn't meet our quota. As a result, all of our primary servers except our Ventrilo and other private community servers will go down.
We're now taking donations to come back up later this/next month. Without donations, we are unable to keep FragArena a-float. So keep donations flowing in, and we'll be back up sometime soon. In the meantime, just do whatever you do best.
For now, FragArena is in a frozen state. I was it's sole provider for a very long time but now I simply cannot continue paying for this without the help of others. If you want FragArena back, please donate. I need help paying for all of this. Anyways, I'm glad you joined us. We'll be back at a later time. Check back soon.
FragArena is in a bit of a ditch right now. And the problem must be addressed before our servers are shut down! We're short on cash for this month! After checking my funds, I was shocked to find that for the first time, the server this month may have to go down! By it doesn't have to go down loyal members of FragArena. We are now officially accepting donations from those generous members whom are looking to donate for their and everyone elses enjoyment!
This is the first time we have ever had to go to the community looking for funds. But this month has been a rough one and we need help to get us out of this snag! Our deadline for doantions is the 18th, which leaves no time to spare! IF YOU have some sort of extra money, any amount will help us at this time! Even the smallest amount of 2 dollars can help us reach our goal of $210 for our two servers based in Dallas.
So those who can help us in any way, you will be rewarded! All you need to do is visit this topic, read what you get, donate the amount of money you please, sit back, get your reward, and watch FragArena live on to frag another day! But it's all up to you, the users! The staff at FragArena are no longer at the reigns of this beast. It is you all whom can donate that will decided where we go from here. We've served millions, so help us out if you can.
It's a nice little Vent change! Our other server went down, but no problem. We have another Vent to provide for us until our 50 slot returns. This a 25 slot not intended to be used for long, but it should hold out just well.

Hey everyone! We've had our nice little break for the holidays and other events but it seems to have leaked into overtime, but now we're back! We have a few updates for you that I'm sure you'll be interested in. First, we have inserted FragArena into WoW! If you know what we're talking about already, we have made a guild on the server Emerald Dream! And with that, before the majority of our members are even 70 (a bold move on my part I suppose), we're already planning to build the guild up to have quite a few members. With this, we also announce that we're going to be a huge PVE and PVP guild when it comes to 70 raiding. More on this later though, since we're still working towards this goal.
We have added a few new members to our ranks, so if you're interested to see who we've added, check out our members page to see a very new and updated list of members for both of our little teams. We've also added an updated list (Thanks Blizzard for your WoW armory!) of people whom are in our guild.
Soon emerging, another TF2 server with a custom map rotation for all! With this, we also plan a source server and 1.6 server to be out very soon. We're just looking for the right people to manage the new servers we're planning on releasing.
Now for the news many are waiting to hear. For this who play and are familiar with Xbox Live, this is a call to arms. We've started something new with XBox live, because FragArena is now being put there as well! Our small little team has been playing Halo 3 as of recently, and we have built up quite a team so far. If you're interested in joining our little live league, then post on the forums with your gamer tag and XFire, and we'll be sure to get back to you.
Thats all of the news for now. Check back later and we'll keep you up to date with what we're doing at FragArena. Now get on those servers!
The battlefield 2 stat padding server was shut down, although we did find out that knife and pistol servers are considered legit by EA. So we went from Stat Padding, Air Maps (BIG FAILURE), to a 24/7 Knife server (so far successful). Sounds good right? Our pad server was popular enough everyone still knows our name and is coming back to the knife server. Join and get some of the action.
Well, if you read the title, you've read right. If you've been keeping up to date on our servers, you will have noticed that our BF2 servers have been changing about constantly and that we've been looking for a good position to get settled in. While we were doing this, we upgraded our Stat pad server to a 32 slot server on a new machine with a much better connection, allowing more people to join and stat pad along!
You will have noticed we took down our VERY inactive CoD4 server and our other 16 slot Stat pad server and turned both of those into a 64 man BF2 Server! Yay! It was a whole lot of fun last night to those who were on the server. It's up right now, and if you're interested, the IP for it is to your right. The whole entire game is amazing and I love the server so far. You can thank Impact and Washington for this great new addition to FragArena servers.
We're also about to put up our donations area! That's right! Since we're now using our primary dedicated server to it's limit, we NEED to start accepting donations. So if you have any spare money, put it somewhere where you know it will go into your fun and many others fun. Any amount is accepted and praised. And as always, you get something yourself for your good deed to FragArena. Not only will you help yourself, but you will help the thousands of others that use and love our servers. Your support is really appreciated.
Along with a series of new changes, we plan on putting up a CS:S server for whatever purpose this weekend! We'll put it up when everyone decides what they want on the server and what kind of server it should be. If you want to help us choose, there is a topic in the CS:S section for this on the forums. Go sign up and post what you want!
Along with this, we have our TF2 Valve rotation server up and running strong! We're currently changing a few of it's settings, and then we'll be off to play on it! Please join us as we're working on getting it to become a regular favorite sever just like our 24/7 2Fort server! We look forward to seeing you on!
For now, it's all systems go! And while you're at it, join the Empires server and see how much fun you'll have. It certainly is fun, and for a good time, it has to have over 44 players, which our server constantly sports. Join up and see how amazing this mod is! Downloads from our local servers are below this post. Until next time, see you all around!
FragArena gives it three thumbs up. This game is amazing! Our server CAN handle 48 people with ease, BUT, it just ruins the game with that many people. We would rather have a balanced and fun game, so we offer 40 slots on our server rather than 48 like the other two servers which is more crazy battle rather than tactical fun. We would like you to join us as we search into the depths of Empires. Join us on our server!
Amazing game coming out November 30th, FragArena.net will be hosting a 48 man server for it. Come and join to fight a battle of epic proportions with two commanders and all out war. Our server we imagine tomorrow will be packed, so join as soon as you can! We will be hosting a mirror of the client version for download, so if you're looking for a fast download that is not capped and will max your speed, check here to download from our fast round-robin server configuration!
And now, a video and some news! The servers IP will be [ 74.86.200.50:27015 ], so connect to that if you're going to join us for a night of ownage.

About Empires 2.0:
wrote ... Empires effectively combines the genres of real-time strategy and first person shooter. Each team has four classes to choose from (scout, rifleman, grenadier, and engineer). Each class has Two Northern Faction heavy tanks take on a Brenodi heavy tank unique weapons and skills. One player becomes the commander by entering the team's command vehicle, thereby jumping into a more traditional "command view" of Real-time Strategy games like C&C or Starcraft, where they can place buildings and research technologies. Once your base is built up, you can purchase vehicles from your team's vehicle factory to open up another facet of Empires' gameplay. Vehicles can be customized with unique weapons, armor, and engines. The commander can research improvements to all aspects of vehicles such as longer range cannons, homing missiles, and armor-piercing machine gun rounds.
Once your team is prepared, launch a massive assault into enemy territory where your skill and strategy will be put to the test. The enemy team is defeated when all players are wiped out with either no place to respawn or no reinforcements remaining. Additionally, the game can be won by destroying the enemy's command vehicle. There are multiple gamestyles including classic commander maps and mission-oriented conquest maps.
Overview: With the best parts of first-person shooter melded together with third-person realtime strategy, Empires Mod is a refreshingly unique game. This Source mod won the Moddb 2006 multi-genre award. Empires Mod 2.0 boasts riveting, strategic gameplay with an emphasis on teamwork and enough action to keep the adrenaline junkie in you interested.

Hello and welcome back to our great community! Well since you're here, someone told you about our new site or you're new to our community. Either way welcome. We've changed a whole lot since the host and domain change, and now our forums are totally operational. So drop by, register an account and give us a shout! We're all ears.
As for news with the community, we're just starting up with the new site so all people who registered before now needs to re-register. Also with the new domain, we're adding some more servers and getting a new Ventrilo. The new IP can be found to the left. These new servers include two new BF2 servers, a new Vent server, and a CoD4 server. Along with our old servers, we have formed FragArena.net.
Not only this, but under Smokey, we plan on starting a few new servers he will be leading personally. Hopefully we can start our great 1.6 server again and restore it to what it was back in 2006 with it's amazing popularity. But reguardless, that is for the future! Since I'm a bit busy I'll have to cut this a bit short, so I'll just leave with we're making amazing progress. I'll post more when I have the time. Until then, keep up the frags, and we'll see you on the servers!
