Hey guys, As you know I've started doing let's plays on MC. We're renting a server with 2.5GB Ram and was curious if anyone else has rented servers before for the purpose of doing adventure type maps like we've been doing and what they use. We used something called cubedhosting which also has multicraft a very simple to use control panel type thing for the server. Just wondering if anyone else has used another company that they had good or bad experiences with, etc. to compare if we're maybe renting more than we need. We generally won't ever have more than 4-5 people on it and only use it for adventure maps and such.
We've had nothing but bad luck with trying to host our own using our PCs...couldn't even get my roommate to connect to my computer, which is why we rent one to begin with, haha.
once I switched my anti-virus I couldn't get it so work. So, that's when I found empire! I guess it was a good thing I couldn't get it to work!
Hmm.. I haven't used this yet, but I've heard CubedHost is pretty good - a couple of YouTubers use it. http://www.cubedhost.org
http://mcprohosting.com/plans.php ^Used to rent server there. Right now its $2.50 for 5 players (vanilla only).
Aww. I clicked this because for some reason, I thought it was going to mean we now had a question to answer correctly to get on the servers and it would weed out the noobz0rz who don't read the guide and stuff . I'm a horrible person.
Yes. It will be that gif. The question will be, "What is this gif?" The only correct answer is: Amazing.
http://www.daddycheese.com/minecraftus.php I have used these guys before, I'm just a noobzor that doesnt know how to use bukkit so i stopped hosting it lol. http://www.verygames.net/ This one I have heard alot of good things about.
I seem to be able to run a server just fine from my laptop, however when I try bukkit it just runs a normal server and I can't shut it off.
I used Minecrafted a couple of months back, they're servers were good, very little lag http://minecrafted.net Also, may sound strange, couldn't you run your small server off the powerhouse that is EMC or would that annoy Justin
