Private server

A private server, also known as a server emulator or an instance, is an unofficial recreation of an original game that uses the same files as the original game but is hosted on a different server and uses its own unique database. There have been several Chobots private servers; unofficial recreations of the original Chobots game. The only official and recognized private servers of Chobots were Chobots.de and Chobots.in, respectively the German and Indian instances of Chobots, which were licensed by Vayersoft. Kavalok was a private server owned by Vayersoft used as a test server for Chobots before updates to the actual live game were pushed.

Overview
Chobots private servers are not officially recognized nor licensed by Vayersoft, meaning that they are technically illegal, and are instead run by individual groups, organizations, and people; typically players of the original Chobots game. Because they run on their own server and use their own databases, hence the name private server, players have to create new accounts on each Chobots private server and cannot directly transfer over their accounts on other Chobots instances. Chobots private servers are also run on their own separate websites with their own unique domains.
