Forum's Cost

Does this also handle the Age of Time server?

Also, do you host badspot.us on the 8 core?

Yes, he does.

i'm surprised badspot still has something like this up, it must cost a decent amount to rent all the space for the images/huge walls of text and the .gif images, how  much do you guys think it costs to upkeep a set of forums like these? even though it's not the largest :D

You clearly don't know anything about hosting costs.
Having a "huge wall of text" probably only takes up a kilobyte at maximum, and most hosting plans allow you to store in the hundreds of billions of bytes, so no, "images/huge walls of text" won't really affect his cost much at all. Granted I think Badspot does host himself, as in, not a standard just website host.

"Unlimited" hosting does not exist.


The forum, website and master server are on an 8 core dedicated server.  There is a second single core dedicated server for the matchmaker and hosting Blockland games.  Together they use about 1TB of traffic per month. 

The CDN download content is hosted on Amazon Cloudfront and uses an additional ~2TB of traffic per month. 

It's not cheap.  I'm not worried about kids taking it over using their allowance.

Doesn't baddy own a server in Texas?
He could host it practically free from there.

right, from what i guess, badspot is a very rich guy...
makes 23 USD daily, and atleast 2 Id's bought every day,
17,000 Id's
blockland has been running since 2005-02-23 12:00:00
which is 6 years, approx,
taking into account about the cost of software he purchases to spoil himself...
$677,592
 - software
$665,592
over the course of 6 years...
well, thanks badspot for what you have done for us on blockland !
all numbers are approximates


EDIT : i think youtube is still out numbering blockland though...
$1.1m daily =S
