| Same, except for the $600 starter price tag. Wait...did you say $50 a month too to keep it up, or did I just totally misread that?
That's starting to sound like quite an expensive option. ____________________ |

| $50/month sounds rather reasonable to me for someone in need of such a service, but I wouldn't fork that out unless I had as much popularity as say this place. As far as how much it's within reach of this board, how much do the ads usually raise a month? And how much do we currently pay? |

Originally posted by stag019 Average of $0.30~$0.50 daily combined (so about $15-30 a month depending on spikes). It isn't a whole lot but it does its part. The Rusted Logic finances have mostly been entirely out-of-pocket since the last RL Donation Drive. TCRF eats $25/month as it is right now and $50 wouldn't be that big of an issue as long as I'm employed. If you want pricey, try the Rusted Logic hosting in general, which is over about $250 now (but paid every two years). That one will sting in 2013 >)> ____________________ You might think that this layout is specifically EarthBound themed, but it might just be a reference to one of my favorite games. |

I'd probably consider moving stuff like stats.rustedlogic.net though, which is failing under the restrictions of shared hosting. It's funny to think that "medium" sites in Piwik are ones with >= 700 visits/day when we have a bunch more  ____________________ You might think that this layout is specifically EarthBound themed, but it might just be a reference to one of my favorite games. |

We could piggyback off of retro while we run a donation drive on wiki and also on site? That might be something to look at as well.
I hope I did not state the obvious or something that someone else said... ____________________ |

| I have a friend who spent $6000 on his server. He used it for massive RO servers. He got fed up with the hosting company and took it home and put it on a T1 line. :/ So for a dedicated blade it's not a bad deal at all.
I've used Linode for about 2 months now. I do like it, but the scale it seems is needed it would get pricey. I also still run a server at my mother's house like I did back in the day (however I am thinking of finally closing that down now that I can afford a dedicated one elsewhere) I'd be willing to donate some money as well. (This may be the first year I can afford to donate to various projects for once  ) Really I think with all the content you do TCRF having a dedicated server could be very beneficial.
I remember when I started kafuka.org and acmlm.org 10 years ago when I didn't have any money. EmuNET and all that kind of sucked due to the fact I could never get the main server on to a real host due to the costs involved always bugged me. EDIT: I added some to the dreamhost kitty. If you want some to help with the relocation drop me a line. |

| i use SurpassHosting and they are pretty fantastic. I pay around $7 a month and the bandwith/data allowances are pretty decent, or at least were when I got my package. May be worth a look |

I've been working with ScarredSun to get a plan together to purchase the parts to make a dedicated server. The price range is looking to be about $350 or so, but it should be fast, at least.
We shall see. ____________________ You might think that this layout is specifically EarthBound themed, but it might just be a reference to one of my favorite games. |
