But good luck mikey. If you need advice let me know but im not going to try to do all that mess again
Yes, i am aware that it is perceived as not being easy. Me currently being in an environment where RL shit can happen at any given moment i have learned to progressively plan. Im also aware that the largest contributor to our past servers not working was because they were hosted and a steady income was not maintained. Seeing as how id like my server to benefit me in the long run, i can not give up so easily. Having 1 or two other people who will be allowed access to my hosted server, will greatly help with server maintenance if i am away. i have 30 days of leave when i return home in the summer time, it being summer time im betting on a few dedicated individuals who have some spare time are willing to help.

The only question i have for you at the moment is regarding a Server Build for minecraft. Any hardware suggestions for something dedicated to a 50+ slot server?
for 50 players what should i look for in regards to Down/Up?
