I will need 2 servers up, and do not like resets and lag and all that crap.
somdthing free just tells me bandwidth isn't regulated and resources would be over"sold"

It's 100% trusted. Cowboy6 is the most mature and professional guy you'll meet.
The CBM servers rarely reset compared to RTB's unreliable, constant resets.
Regarding bandwidth and resources:

Currently it's running about 55% of the total capabilities with 18 servers and few players on the servers, but when I hosted that crazy Steam party server with 99 players the day Blockland came out on Steam, plus about 45 other players spread out on other servers, I was at about 85-90% with 18 servers running. So I'd say 20 total is about right for the node we have now, and that takes care of any big player counts we may have.

Hopefully I still have my slot for CBM.
The service seriously needs a way to talk to the console through the client and see what people are doing.

Living in Australia makes it difficult to host a good server, especially since most of Blockland's audience are American...
Johnny Blockhead:
Make CBM a paid service.
Boom, problem solved.
