Hey Gu(a)ys 
I've exchanged with Kaska few msgs about the server situation and gave him a suggestion. So i want to share this idea with the other coz, its not just the matter of Server owner but of ppl who are playing also.
A friend of mine started few days ago own universal server hosting with no service running yet, and told me if we would be interrested he could provide us a cheaper server with more slots (if its needed) and better reliability.
The one and the only problem could be for some of you server location in the other words ping. The server is placed here in heart of europe Slovakia so UK guys could be a bit pissed off
from the other side guys from central europe like Poland, Germany, Croatia, Hungary, Austria, Czech rep, would have delay up to 30ms.
Anyways try to ping it by yourself. Server IP is 78.41.170.40
And here are few of infos about the server so you could know what we're dealing with.
Intel based motherboard with chipset 5100MCH
2x CPU Intel Xeon 5140
2x HDD Raptor 150 with 2TB file system
8GB of full registered memory
200Mbit full duplex connect (just for start).
Server hardware is placed directly at Slovak internet peering center (www.six.sk) using optical 1Gb interface (<0.5ms)
PS: this guy works with me in the IT distribution company so any hardware failure will be solved in 24h
