--- Quote from: Darkness ZXW on September 27, 2012, 01:51:00 AM ---I think Glass himself is paying for the server and he's only using his father as a proxy to buy the server, as Glass is underage. I have no doubt that Glass will be able to handle this, and push comes to shove, Evar and I can pick up the bill until something is worked out. --- End quote --- Realistically though, would you? I doubt it. I agree, a hosting service is a nice project to work on, but wait until you have enough financial security to run it. |

I think that we'll start out with preordered clients paying right at start up. After that, the price we'll have to pay per month will keep getting lowered until there's none left, and eventually breaking even or even making a small profit. I actually believe that Glass has noted that he makes around $300 a month from various chores, and I think that's enough to pay for a $68/m dedicated server. I appreciate you taking an interest in this and thank you for your input. Have a nice day. --- Quote from: Crêpe on September 27, 2012, 02:10:31 AM ---is that Evar kid still part of this? --- End quote --- A part of what? This? Yes, he's our main programmer for the project. |
