Offer of free hosting

Hello,

I really like this game but feel that there are not enough servers which can support many players.

I do not have time to administrate a community, but I do have money. So, I will buy a VPS and give a partner an account on it.

VPS I will buy:
DIGITALOCEAN
16 GB RAM
6 vCPUs
320 GB Disk
6 TB Monthly Transfer
$80/mo

I'll install the minetest server package, and you can install whatever mods you want and administer the server as you wish :) Just so long as I get an admin account too ;)

I'm leaning more towards a creative server but am also open to a survival server. If you have already have a server with many players and you are struggling to afford hosting, you will get priority. Because I want to have a large server, thus the high specs.

Let's talk :D

Edited to add: We can either use your domain or I have a domain. If you would prefer to use your domain so you can point at at another VPS or server if this doesn't work out I completely understand :)

The "I quit minetest text me on Facebook" in your signature does not exactly inspire confidence.
I'm not the one to decide, just saying.

So you want to have a server again? Your last servers ran so well, because you banned anyone you don't like, haven't any programming skills and no idea how to run a server. So I think it's a good idea to give you a new server. NOT.

Please stop going offtopic, this isn't the right thread to talk about your current server. I kinda feel bad for OP, they made a generous offer and are now probably put off for eternity.

Nobody is hosting the Earth by Lentebriesje map that I converted yet, which would be really cool to have a creative server around and have people build on it, since it's just all landscape now.

+1 I kinda suggest giving sofar the server, since he has already put effort into it and there are so few creative servers. And some of them became kinda bad to play on because of lotsa unfinished builds.

My servers have been semi-popular with about 5 players on at once. I have hosted many servers on my time on minetest, but none of them have been fast, or that capable, because I hosted from home. If the offer is still going, I would like to admin it. I know plenty of mods players like, this will attract them.
