Find who owns an anonymous server?
Posted: Tue Apr 04, 2017 1:11 am
I have recently been playing on an old server that was run by somebody else, where there was a huge mega factory built by geniuses, but it was apparently griefed, overrun by the bugs and 90% destroyed. I've been recovering the server, pushing back the bugs, building up the defenses, and rebuilding the factory.
Things are coming along nicely at this point, but I have a problem.... I have no idea who owns or runs the server.
The server is abandoned and the people that were originally running the world have left, and have been gone for a while. All I can really find are objects in the world with names of people that have created them. I have never seen these people post on the factorio forum, and web searches have not turned up anything useful.
I tell anyone who comes to the server that playing on it is probably a ridiculous idea because it could disappear any day. All I can say is that I save back ups of the world and might start my own server from a map backup if the main server does eventually go away at some point
