I don't know how many times I have to say this for it to sink it, but Kalphiter is a bad person. By extension, anyone who gives him money is a bad person or just completely oblivious.

You're seriously better off putting that money into a better internet connection and hosting it yourself. The dude rents his servers in Germany under the delusion that foreign servers are cheaper and better. Even on the very generous assumption that he's correct, unless you're in Europe the ping is going to be atrocious for players in the United States, which is the majority of them. You're not getting a good deal, and I don't know why you'd willingly subjugate yourself to Kalphiter's bullstuff. I wouldn't use his servers if he paid me.

It really isn't up to me, but to my parents. Again, I can't host, simple as that.

HOWEVER, I do have to say the location sucks. I usually ping in at ~190 which is awful. He did say he was going to move the server eventually, though, so that's cool.

Translation: He will never move the server.

i thought kalph was just renting himself. and giving you all cuts of the bandwidth and server.
"just move it" would mean him canceling the service, and starting a new deal with a new server elsewhere.
i dont see him going through the trouble now that hes got a dozen of you on his billing cycle.

Idk.

He did post that he was going to in the topic.

Plus, I think he lives in the US so he might benefit from it as well, an added incentive.

Simple solution for now, Kal should set up something along the lines of an EULA, preferably one people will actually read. That way he's more or less legally binded to not be a richard.
