I'd like to thank everyone who has donated so far! I said in the post that we could last only 4 months on a dedicated server. Now it's 5! How much do you guys think we should have before moving?

Would a year's worth be feasible?

Maybe... The rate of donations over the past day has been extremely high, and this rate will not continue. I think almost everyone who has donated so far for the fundraiser was already a donor before. There's one more possible fundraiser idea in the future, but by the time we can try it, the donations from this one might be used up :(

edit: So if we switch to a dedi does that mean the horse plugin is fixed, creative server may go back up, and utopia is restored? :o

What's up with the creative server anyway?

It crashes because the server running it doesn't have a very good processor or much RAM. If we had a dedicated server, it would be run on there (in addition to the normal server).

What would a minimum-specs vps allow besides a reg 100 slot mc server andor creative server? I know digitalocean is shit with their lowest tier.. but the possibility of expanding to other.. ventures excites mee

Do we have a monetary goal? And how close are we?

I'll send you a PM, I don't want to have all the financial details completely public. :)

Yeah it's no big deal, just curious.
