Q: How long have you ran/been Admin on a server?
A: Half a year, still running one.

Q: What is your favorite server plugin?
A: If I am in the typing mood, PermissionsEX/Bpermissions or some sort of quest plugin. Essentials is also a server owner's best friend.

Q: Do you pay for a server or host it at home?
A: I pay for the server.

Q: What do you think the hardest thing about running a server is?
A: Trying to get players on, and keep them.

Q: Do you use any mods our spout plugins in your server?
A: No.

Q: What type of server do you run?
A: PvP/Factions.

Q: What kind of rewards do you give from donations?
A: Depends on the rank and type of server. Since I have a PvP/Factions server, I try to avoid game-breaking perks. Mob-Disguise, TPA perms, a nice in-game rank, personal channel in the Teamspeak server, and a bit of in-game money is the most I give.

Q: Whitelist, Graylist, or Public?
A: Public. Also depends on the kind of server.

EDIT: Sorry, for some reason, it skipped to the bottom. I felt like the app was awfully short. >.>

Q: How long have you ran/been Admin on a server?
A: About 2 months 24/7 but recently had to shut it down.

Q: What is your favorite server plugin?
A: Jail all the way lol. Very good for bad players and mute is included in the plugin.

Q: Do you pay for a server or host it at home?
A: I have hosted a server.

Q: What do you think the hardest thing about running a server is?
A: Maintaining rules, discipline, and keeping everyone happy and coming back.

Q: Do you use any mods our spout plugins in your server?
A: I did at one time but i found regular plugins better in my opinion.

Q: What type of server do you run?
A: Im not sure of the question. Do you mean a server such as bukkit or a server such as survival?

Q: What kind of rewards do you give from donations?
A: I used vip or gave certain tools or armour to fit the theme of the server such as money for an economy server and high enchanted armour for pvp.

Q: Whitelist, Graylist, or Public?
A: Public. That gives more traffic but still the Whitelist would bring trusted players but steady traffic is allways good for a server.
