Epic pulls the plug on master servers

Thanks! TPU was created so that a friend and I would always have a place to play BF1942 where we could have fun killing bots without waiting around for transportation. And where, if any other human players were present, they were fighting with us to defeat the bots.

It's been interesting to hear the bizarre arguments expressed by players who don't understand why we prefer cooperative play. The most common is that we are somehow cowards, unable to compete with human players and playing against bots because they are easier to kill. The real cowards are players who get their kicks annoying people without any risk to themselves.

Anyone who has ever played aginst other humans online knows exactly how ugly it can get, and that's what we're trying to avoid. The world is ugly enough that we don't need to be exposed to more nastiness when we're just trying to have some fun.

I'll keep TPU running as long as I'm able, because if I've learned one thing in all this, it's that there are plenty of like-minded people out there, and those people need a place to play.
