(Another) new server

both have a setup fee of (I will calculate this in dollars here to make it easier for you) of $190 and monthly costs varying (due to CPU, RAM)

The past 3 months have been quite lucrative to say the least. I think a $60 dollar donation fee would be easily attained. Lets see what everyone else has to say.

I agree, if the donations keep coming in as they are currently, 60$ shouldn't be hard to obtain as a donation goal. We already gain an average of around 60$ as it is.

I would say go for it as long as you have enough money to pay for 1-2 months in advance. Anything less than that isn't worth the risk, in my opinion.

According to the load readout =) we might think anew.

Take a look at DS7000 and DS9000

7000 would be OK for now (price!) but if we get much more users, DS9000 would be good... there is a huge gap in performanc

Hrmm, still thinking it over but I say  just go with the DS7000  for now. We'll see how it goes and if you do get more people we can just switch over to the DS9000, right? More than half the players here are kids that aren't old enough to get Credit/Debit

$180 seems like... kind of a lot. We seem to able to do $100 - $130 every month without a problem though.
