Yep.

[sabinati]

how about no

Maybe they refuse to host server coz you are from swe. From swe are a lot of internet pirates so they assume you r one of em?

[Goom]

More likely they refused to host it as their character was killed swimming away from a rampaging bear.

We should sell pirate copies of HnH to fuel loftar's campaign for a better server.

Maybe look at this: http://www.hetzner.de/de/hosting/produk ... erver/eq4/ (or the bigger ones in case you want more RAM)
5TB incl., after that they reduce to 10MBit (you can up the limit for monthly 9.8€/TB, but after 10TB total it's cheaper to split the server over multiple machines there and loadbalance).

Well, that's pretty good. The hardware specs are slightly lower than OVH's, but on the other hand the price is almost half of OVH's. All I'm worried about is that 5 TB/month limit. Taken over an entire month, that's still just 15 Mbps on average, a mere 50% increase over what we have now. It's true, of course, that the server doesn't use Jorb's full 10 Mbps line off peak-hours right now, but I don't know how high it would actually peak during those peak-hours if it weren't for its current hard limit, so I don't really know how much it would use per month. It seems clear that there isn't a whole lot of room to grow with only 5 TB/month, at least. And Haven isn't really something I can "split over multiple machines" anyway, beyond splitting off the HTTP server.

Have any companies/investors approached you guys with deals yet?

[loftar]

Yes, they have. We have been steadfastly ignoring them. :)

I think the best one was a South Korean association that offered to localize and run Haven in South Korea with advertisement income -- and we didn't even have to pay them for it. :)

i thought you said something recently about working on a distributed version of haven?
