About Tatu Eugen
Hi, I’m Tatu Eugen.
In 2002, I started going to internet cafés, and that’s when my love for computers began.. I was only 12 years old. In 2004, I got my first PC (Pentium III). It was good enough to run CS 1.6 with bots on maps like cs_assault. Then, in 2005, my first home internet connection was installed.
I started playing Counter-Strike, browsing websites, and exploring the digital world. By 2006, I had set up my very first Counter-Strike server on Windows XP. My PC was running 20 hours per day just to keep the server alive!
In 2007, after experimenting with multiple servers (one up, one down, and so on), I discovered free forum websites-places like name.freeforum.com. That’s when my interest in websites started. Shortly after, I learned to create Counter-Strike maps, and I completed my first map following a tutorial on making a room.
By 2008, I began making public Counter-Strike maps. From then until 2020, I created hundreds of maps for various communities. Some were lost over time, others were recovered. During this period, my passion for websites continued to grow, and I started creating numerous communities and sites. Some were successful, some weren’t.
In 2007, my server progamer.ro became quite famous, and my nickname was "ZERO." I closed it in 2009 and launched a new community, csromania.net, which later moved to .com for a better name. I managed this community from 2009 to 2016. Afterward, I tried starting a hosting company, a pure hobby born out of my love for computers, but it was shut down after a year as it didn’t turn a profit.
I launched my first website, tatueugen.info, in 2008, but lost the domain in 2016 because I forgot to renew it. In 2019, I acquired temaps.com, though I lost it again temporarily when my interest in maps waned. In 2025, I regained temaps.com and rebuilt the website into its best version ever.
After closing CSRomania.com, I started a dev community called gvme.org, focusing on game resources like maps and skins. In 2025, I closed gvme.org and rebuilt it from the ground up into mod.vg. I personally wrote the code for the new website over four months, working 12 hours a day, using the latest PHP and MySQL versions.
Meanwhile, in 2025, I started new projects and plan to launch a store offering scripts and templates.
