    I have the hardware to build a dedicated server, but I simply don't have the internet to do so. I was looking at hosting, and unfortunately it is simply out of the question for me to pay by the month for one, its too much.
    The price I saw for a VPS was around $40 a month.
    However, that's ridiculous, so I wouldn't ever do that. I saw these prices at on the Minecraft forums:
    Posted Image 3 players - 128mb RAM : $2.95/mo.
    Posted Image 5 players - 256mb RAM: $7/mo.
    Posted Image 10 players - 640MB RAM: $14/mo.
    Posted Image 15 players - 640MB RAM: $21/mo.

    ^If someone (or multiple someones) would be willing to split/help with the costs, I would manage it. If anyone is interested in splitting/helping with the costs, I will shop around for the best deal. I could also explore the option of regular web hosting, and setting one up on that (more work, but maybe worth it in the long run)

    I can take away the give command :p

    This is one of the most vanilla public servers you'll find. Almost everyone runs buhkit or something. Go wander in a direction, (not too far). Otherwise you blow up my mapsize, then grow the file, then cost me more bandwidth. Then start your own little area. The intention of our world was to flatten a massive area and create a city, but that failed.

    It would be more like donate what you can, not a fixed amount per month. I just don't know if I can pay my bills with another monthly charge

    I enjoy the give command because I want to build stuff. Your server really isn't survival, because the zombies/creepers etc. don't come around often, unless you are in an unlit area. I like making exotic places, hence the request for the give command. (if I just wanted to make my castle bigger with cobblestone, I would mine it :p)
    On a different note, I would definatly be able to help build a city (if you wanted to), but we should plan it out first, like what type of city? (Old style, modern?)

    i'd be willing to donate, you can have it on a rolling month by month contract which is good for if it becomes unaffordable. how much would you need from me?

    and (noob alert)... whats the /give command? :mellow:

    No, its in the vanilla game, it allows you to give yourself items/blocks (making building easier)

    in the chat, type /give *item id* *amount* (or !give, one of the two should work)
    ^That's only for multiplayer, for single player you need a mod (single player commands, I believe) to use it.

    Our personal server is down as its not yet compatible with 1.5. I could put a vanilla version up there, but I don't want to take the risk with anything possible. SimpleServer is our wrapper, and there seems to be lots of new packets (probably for achievements and weather). It will take awhile to map those packets out and then re-code them into the new version. Hopefully the guys who decompile minecraft will map out the new packets and post them, so then the developers can quickly add the code (lazy ftw).

    Our version of SimpleServer also used that !mystats command, but those stats have been built into the core game. So those will probably have to be merged/remove/maintained separately. Point being, it will take time.

    There are a couple of new items, so you'll have to spawn those by IDs as no word-ID pair has been made it. Those will come later when I have time.

    Check back later today, or tomorrow early for the updated build. Until then, Single Player :p or GOW3.

    kk server is back online.

    There might be some bugs left, so if the server rejects your login that means it crashed :( It restarts every 45 minutes, so have fun :p

    A more stable SimpleServer will be out later tonight.
