I am thinking of starting a new server that would be centrally located in the United States. Dallas Texas, to be precise. It would use InterNAP bandwidth. This is the type of bandwidth the backbones use to communicate with each other. It would be on 24/7. Well, there would be a daily restart just to keep everything clean. It would be professionally hosted by a company that does nothing but host websites and games. Most Battlefield, Call of Duty, and other AAA MP servers are hosted by companies such as this.
Would anyone be interested in such?

Sounds great! Will there be any charge to play on it? (Considering it's hosted by professionals)

Or perhaps a donation option to help defray costs? We used to share costs on our MUD's server fees back in the day.From post: 184187, Topic: tid=12366, author=SeeJay wrote:Sounds great! Will there be any charge to play on it? (Considering it's hosted by professionals)

There will be no charge whatsoever to play on this server.
If people do want to donate I can do that. I'll be making a post shortly for the server. Just as soon as I see it is on the list.

Ok. Just restarted the server machine. Once it comes back up, we'll see.
Edit: And then I started the game and it says there's an update. So I'll have to update the server as well. Ok. No biggie.
