Title: Getting hosting
Post by: infestor1 on May 21, 2009, 05:45:20 am

Ok, to the point.

Im still a "kid" and I dont have any money (well, i have money but its not on a paypal or anything and I dont have a credit card). I want to find the cheapest way to get a Tremulous server with 20-24 slots, with access to the actual Trem files (server.cfg, admin.dat, etc.), legally. Please let me know the cheapest legitimate place you have seen to get a Tremulous server with those paramaters up there. ^^

Thanks

The cheapest way to get a Tremulous server is to host one yourself. No one will host one for free for that many slots. (Prove me wrong anyone?) And even if they do, chances are you'll get a craptastic connection, or the players will get molested by the host.  :dretch:

If you lived on the otherside of the world and could manage while i was asleep........

set ups like that and where multiple people want to host but cant keep the uptime is where decentralized and distributed servers come in handy but i havent seen anything like that for trem.

Back when Gamez-Host was able to host I could of had you pay with a money order, and server would come online the very day you asked for.
But I would give your money order 5-7 days to get to me before you got any admin and ssh, or your server got shutdown.
After the summer is over and we pull out of debt or maybe during the summer if we are lucky Gamez-Host should be back online.  We have got some good prices, plus I'm planning to take the prices down a few notches.  If you would like to stop by here is link http://www.Gamez-Host.net and forums http://www.Gamez-Host.net/forums

If you would like to contact me directly just email me @ oblivion@gamez-host.net

Other then that, good luck with finding hosting, if you can wait a little longer I can see what I can do to get you a server online.
Thanks,

The Visa Gift Card is your friend and it can be found at a lot of gas stations/wal mart. You can buy the 25 dollar card and use that to pay for your tremulous server. I used to use http://noghost.net/hosting/ and the visa gift card worked with his paypal. I'm sure it works for other host's paypal accounts as well.
