Server host provider?

[lvb2555]

I be looking for a provider, e.g. gameservers.com to rent a server for MS:C, which seems to nigh impossible to find. The only reason I feel this necessary, because all the servers are either on maps too high level for new characters to play on, or locked, combined with the fact that it's a tad rude for some level 25+ characters to join a map, say, chapel, that 4 new characters are happily leveling, and killing all the rats and boars saying "I needz exp too".

There's very few reasons why anyone level 25+ could have an excuse to join chapel, and that's to 'steal' the server from said newbs, to help with the acquisition of items, or to talk. And I'm more inclined to say 'stealing' the server. At the current time the server list and a few people of the community aren't very 'newb' friendly.

So how/where would I go to help expand the number of servers available?

host one on your computer, that's about the only way your going to get one. Most server hosting companies won't let just any mod run on their servers. However I am sure if you keep looking you might be able to find something.

If you're still interested, I run with a crew that has their own server box that they rent out. It's $7.50 a month for a 10-slot hl1 server and I'm already running my server off of it. PM me if you want details.

You might want to give some details, if you want it in Europe, USA or w/e.

Server box is located in Chicago and a default 10-slot hl1 server runs at 7.50 a month, which isn't bad at all. If anyone is interested, clickens.
