Dedicated Hosting Service [REQUESTING PAYMENT]
PhireX7:
I would pay 5-10 if the servers quality, and could host 30+ players without lag.

Yes, based on splitting the server, it requires 30 people to pay about $149 per month which in turn means $4.96 per person. The server would include a $204 setup fee on the master host's side.
If everyone would pay a part of the setup fee in one month, it would an extra $6.8 from every person assuming it would be payed within one month.
To pay it off in three months, it would require $2.27. Assuming the three-month fee, it means $7.27 for the first three months and then $5 from then on. That in turn means no profit, so that wouldn't be a good for anything at all. A good example would be $8 for the first three months then $7 from then on. That would bring in $60 per month for the up-front hoster. Within 3.4 months, another server can be bought so that another 30 or so players can host.

Depending on how fast it is, I'd pay for it.
If it's a slow server hosted in some WoW addicts garage I'd pay about $5,
but if it's a smooth, good connection server I'd pay about $5-$10.

isn't it against the Motd to make a profit off of this game? Like, paying for servers :o
