Would you be able to maintain the server? Yes, as I have much experience with servers and running them!
Would you make the server popular? I would try my very best and get my crack team of advertisers to help out
Would you be able to make $50 a month from donations? Hmm, I could try my best by making heaps of little commands for $5 each! Then I could easily make the money

Would you be able to maintain the server? Easily, Im free everyday and i know many people to help me maintain the server
Would you make the server popular? Pfft id make the server past popular If you give me the time to get a team up and running( Build team for the spawn and a tech team for maintaining the server)
Would you be able to make $50 a month from donations? I bet i could to tell you the truth, Ive managed a server before thats made 90 dollars the first month and after that the server made a average of 30-40 dollars a month without even advertising. ADVERTISING! I know all about advertising you can check out my whole blog about it. I know how to run a server and how to get the players to play on the server. I believe i could run a server that will reach the PMC popular server list.

Firstly; I don't mean "you're not getting the server" I mean "you're all a bit thick if you're still posting Skype names even though it is against the forum rules and I've already pointed it out once".

Secondly I didn't reply because I went to work; not everyone spends 7 hours refreshing a forum over and over to see if their "burn" hit a nerve or not.

The question people should be asking is, does the server offer windows remote desktop console where mcmyadmin can be run along with a ftp and vent/ts and/or will it just be a virtual machine. Also is 12gb the solid state ram or including the pagefile. These are key things I'd have to ask you before I say yes I could run a server for 50$ a month.

Can I run a server, Currently do and its a blade hosted fragnet machine with remote desktop with ts and ftp running my sql all setup by myself. Cost is 160 a month with 8gb ram with about 450gb of storage.

Have I been doing this awhile, I've been operating a server(s) for about 2 years now.

First run was a stock map with vanilla with economy and a massive player base of about 2-300 people. Now I run a Buildcraft server that has twice as much as tekkit, stable, locked down for anti grief that even GodCraft couldn't touch us. And we currently run between 10-30 players online full time.

Should you consider me, sure, I'm more then capable, have logged probably twice the hours of everyone else who's posted combined working out server issues and map fixes, also im 30, have no life, and just happen to know what I'm doing. Aka just because you know java doesn't mean you know how to run mc stable and smooth.

Just a few comments, it would be fair to assume that the server is a VPS server, most people don't need windows remote desktop console because FTP and SSH are good enough, by saying that I also assume that ftp access is enabled(it is a server) and also regarding the ram and pagefile it would be a reasonable guess to say that it would not include the pagefile. On the teamspeak and ventrilo comment anyone with basic portfowarding and partioning knowledge could easily do what I plan to do(if I won) and devote one GB of the ram to a TS3 server another to a port 8080 web connection and the rest to minecraft. Now to your comment on Java I think it is partially true however me and my partner rewrote all of the minecraft code to reduce lag and add way more features.

loothed,
