Good evening guys, if you were on the server yesterday evening or today, you will have noticed that server seems to be crashing every 5 minutes or so. The owners are aware of the issue and are currently working on a fix for it. The website and Team Speak 3 are not impacted. For all premium players, 2 days of premium will be added for you for compensation for the 'down-time'. Overall, we're sorry for the inconvenience caused by this!​

Hi guys, we have finally resolved the issue that the last Garry's mod update caused and the server is no longer crashing every 10 minutes.
We have given all premium users an extra week of free premium, since the server was pretty much unplayable last week.
