3-Day Grace Period
We extend to all new subscribers a grace period in which we officially start hosting the game server 3 days after its launch. This means that you don't get charged for adapting to the new server setup and adjusting it to suit your needs when you first sign up with us.

Interested parties should try our existing game servers to experience connectivity to our servers before signing up. Upon confirmation of payment, our administrators will launch the game server and issue the passwords to access the game server's administrative features.

We do our best to ensure that your game server is hosted in a lag-free environment, and continually work with subscribers hosted with us to tweak settings to better suit their needs. At the same time, the 3 day grace provides us with the opportunity to test your server in the actual gaming environment shared with other Fragnetics subscribers. This guarantees the quality of gaming on our servers.

For game server requests that involve games we do not have on our list, we may negotiate a free 3-day trial period on a case-by-case basis.

Fragnetics Game Server Administration Utility and Full FTP Access
Fragnetics provides a customized web portal for all your game server administration needs. Covering start/stop functions, direct access to configuration files, and upload functionality, our subscribers are able to stop and restart their server on demand without the intervention of Fragnetics administrators.

FTP Access is granted to all our subscribers. This is especially important for administrators who like to experiment with custom maps, plug-ins, and settings. Our subscribers are given complete freedom in making changes to their servers, and our administrators communicate with them on a regular basis to ensure that the quality of gaming is maintained throughout.

Administrator Intervention and Fees
Although Fragnetics reserves the right to impose an administrative fee when game servers require intervention, no administrative fee has been applied to any subscriber so far. We operate on a common understanding that results in subscribers coming to us occasionally for administrative intervention, and in all cases this has not been an issue.

Furthermore, our administrators keep a lookout for patches to mods and updates so that our servers are up-to-date. Upgrades to mods and services are done quickly.

Other Games and Mods
Over time we have been asked about games not mentioned on our pricelist. There are a couple of factors that we consider when hosting other game. Firstly, the dedicated game server must be able to run on Linux or Windows. The next factor we consider is pricing, which is based on peak CPU, memory, and bandwidth usage. Prices are pegged to that of the regular game servers we offer on our pricelist.

Sponsorships
We are highly selective in our sponsorship of individual clan servers. However, we occasionally grant minor discounts off our list prices depending on the reputation and size of clans. Clans hosted with Fragnetics over a period of time also receive preferential rates.

Game Community Development
Fragnetics has grown steadily in terms of game server hosting thanks to our long-time customers. This has only been possible because we believe in the value of community-development when it comes to the gaming scene, and provide a conducive environment for clans from various games to interact through the Fragnetics forum and other arranged outings. Hosting your game server with us gives you the opportunity to play a leading role in shaping this close-knit community, at the same time building your clan's reputation in the gaming arena.
