I have been looking at some Bukkit threads similar to this but I can't seem to find a good server host. My budget is $40 a month. I want at least 2.5 GB of ram. I would like unlimited slots. What host has this?
Unlimited slots with 2.5GB ? I don't understand your logic here. Slot amount differs based on the amount of RAM you have installed in a server. In most cases the more ram you have the better, I would say if your wanting 2.5GB you could run about 30 - 45 slots without any issues. Another think you have to take in to consideration is will there be any heavy load on the server such as voxelsniping and so forth. I made my server and because there is a heavy load of work, I run 4GB of memory on the server but only allow 45 slots when i could allow 50 - 60 if not more. All that aside, you should check out this! http://servercraft.co/minecraft-servers/ Check tier 6 -------------------------------------------------------- http://treepuncher.com/
$40 a month really isn't much when looking for a real reliable host. The one I used to use and never had problem with is http://www.minecraftserverhost.net/ You have access to everything meaning you can set your players to what ever you want, but just try not to go over what they recommend.
Well your not really going to find that in a server unless you go with a dedicated server and program it all yourself, but 40 bucks wont get you within 2000 feet of a dedicated server, sorry bro
