As long as it has FTP and remote command line access, it's fine.

Pretty much summed up a VPS.

I imagine most people who want server hosting mainly want it because they can't run something 24/7 reliably.

How much RAM does a single BL server use up? That VPS server for $15/mo has 1GB of RAM, and I heard that BL servers only take up around 100mb to 250mb? (Not sure)

I'd say 250-300mb would be a safe bet, they can but rarely do use up to 1.67gb.

I dont think I can believe anything about going over 1gb... But ya 250mb - 300mb seems likely

Blockland is a 32-bit application so it can only use 2 GB (it's not compiled with the large-address-aware flag). Something about how the engine works limits it to 1.67 GB though.
