The '''WIDESERVER Project''' originally referred to the plan to use a HP ProLiant DL385p G8 donated by [[Quornes]] to host gaming servers and other vital infrastructure for WIDEVERSE, but later evolved to refer to the array of servers now used. | The '''WIDESERVER Project''' originally referred to the plan to use a HP ProLiant DL385p G8 donated by [[Quornes]] to host gaming servers and other vital infrastructure for WIDEVERSE, but later evolved to refer to the array of servers now used. | ||

The history of server hosting in WIDEVERSE stretches all the way back to 2011 when [[Taylor]] hosted a small Minecraft server for the few members still active via Hamachi. Other incarnations of self hosting sporadically popped up through the years, most notably in the form of [[The Wonkas]] [[Starbound]] server, but no truly centralized option existed. | |||
In Summer of 2021 when it was announced that Taylor's office would be getting a fiber upgrade within the next year, planning began to create a bare metal solution that would allow hosting of whatever was required. The key piece came in October when Quornes offered to donate a full server to the cause. By December, the server was delivered and set up in the [[Wide Media Group]] office. | |||
