I am stupid. Help me.

That sounds cool but I saw the price at like £1000 per year, so I might give it a miss atm.

Thanks all +rep

How many players were you looking at? £1000 per year is for 63 players consecutively.
For a 10 player server, it's only £90 for the year.

How much memory would you recommend for a 8 person server?

Going by what Fragnet says, 512MB should be able to handle up to 12 players. You're probably better asking someone else about that though, I only have experience using Multiplay.

Hmmm if I started off at 20 people, that wouldn't be bad, maybe 15.

But are there any other hosts?

There is a way to do it yourself without hamachi, but it would be hard to sustain without decent specs & connection I imagine and you wouldn't be able to do much when it's running I guess, depending on the amount of people.

Ill just get 500mbs then

I got 512 when I had my server, while it's good for a while, it does suffer a bit when you start to build up the world, especially with more and more players online at once, I never had more than 7-8 people on my server at a time and I had little issue then but it would lag a little bit if everyone spaced apart significantly as the server would then have 8x the amount to load as it normally would.

In all 512 is good for starting, if it starts to get a bit slow you can always upgrade easily anyway.

I'll check out fragnet, thanks neil +rep

Yeah my servers being hosted on my IP but not using hamachi.

I'll let you know the address of it soon enough when we've done more protecting (looks mysteriously at tom)

[Lew]

Sounds cool, I for one really wish to find a decent RPG server, all the ones I play are Survival. PM me the IP if you want me/when your ready

[Pegle]

Yeah, just go to http://plugins.bukkit.org/#ti=&ta=al...bm=false&pno=0

Pick any plugins that sounds good, download it off the thread, and usually most plugins have a single .jar file, move that into the plugins folder and then reload/start your server and then a folder (Named the same as the .jar file you just added in) will pop up with the configuration files, etc.

Hope that helped.
