Imagine one day you go to a server host, buy a 10GB server and over 4 months over 1500000 people joined...


Would you be a good owner?

How would you get staff?

What host would you use?

What server mod would you use*?

NEW How many slots would you have?


The imagination is yours!

Good luck!

This seems more like a attempt for you to get someone who would really put time into posting; then you'd steal all their ideas and use them for your own accord.

What harm is telling them a few little things going to do? There's a huge difference between knowing and doing, am I right? One could know how to make a server, but to manage it well and drive it toward success is another thing completely.

I host 10GB servers just for me and my friends on my PC, not 24:7 though, more like 6:4.

Ik that may be overkill but for like 8 people with a tonne of mods and doing whatever causes lag, care free.

In what world would 10GB even hold that many people? I know your example is an exaggeration, but there are people here saying they could have 400 slots with 8GB.

In your dreams. Even without plugins or mods, that's still in the realm of fantasy.
I might as well contribute my piece.

Would I be a good owner?
That's arguable. I'd say not. Tried and failed IMO.

How would I get staff?
Have an application form on the website, but keep a majority of people I know.

What host would I use?
I have a host in mind. I'd use the same one I always use, but I won't put it here, because it's advertisement and against PMC rules.

What server mod would I use?
CraftBukkit. Most widely supported if I'm not mistaken.

How many slots would I have?
I would upgrade to 16GB of RAM with no more than 100 slots.
Exclusivity is a good marketing point.

*EDIT: Then I would sell it. I have no moral fiber. It would be under better management from someone who could afford to buy it and be willing to pay for it.

I would try my best at being a good owner, even though with that many players online I wouldn't get time to meet them all or help them individually I would do as much as I could to benefit the server as a whole and interact with individual problems as much as possible.

I would hire staff based on helpfulness, friendliness, activity and have a place where people could submit applications to express their interest in becoming a staff member. Players would also be able to vote and express their opinions on whether someone should be staff or not in the staff applications forum.

I would use a dedicated server from redstation.com or OVH.

I would use the Bukkit/Spigot server mod.

There would be 1000 slots

If I owned the biggest server ever, I'd have to be an awesome owner and give some friends owner rank aswell to help, I'd hold a PVP competition where everyone that sends a book saying "may i have op?" or something along those lines, and total player slots would be a million for the hub alone, and 100k slots per server being Freebuild (Plots), Factions, Real Life (death will put you in spectator mode forever unless you had a gold apple when you died), Roleplay, Freebuild (No Plots), No-PVP survival, Prison, Hardcore (death ban, factions), Hardercore mode (death ban, pvp enabled, raiding allowed, faster mob spawn rates), and Hardcore Prison (same as hardcore).
There'd also be the PVP arena, which has 100 opponent slots and another 900 for spectators.

I seem to have nothing else to do today, so let's answer these questions in the most unusual way possible...

Harrypotter74
Would you be a good owner?


I would simply sit in the background of the server, mostly un-noticed by most of the server's regular players. (Spectate/Vanish).

Harrypotter74
How would you get staff?


I would host a tournament every week, among the millions of people who ask "can I be op?". The contest would involve a huge staring contest. The winner will be banned from the server.

Otherwise, I would only offer a staff position to players I see play on the server very frequently (at least 200 hours, and play at least 1 hour per day).

Harrypotter74
What host would you use?


If I'm running a very big Minecraft server, a simple server node would not suffice. I would use a dedicated server host from a company like godaddy. The entire dedicated server will run the Minecraft server(s), website, teamspeak, raidcall, and E-mail services for the server network.


Harrypotter74
What server mod would you use*?


Seeing that I am able to perform a lot of solutions from the power of Vanilla Minecraft, probably none at all.

Harrypotter74
NEW How many slots would you have?


500 slots per hub channel, and 32 slots per child servers/channels.


If your planning to use this idea yourself, I would like to inform you, a dedicated server computer capable of all of that would cost around $200/month.

Would you be a good owner?
Yes, though I think having to manage something that big, I would possibly lose my sanity.

How would you get staff?
Since learning about players isn't really a good option with so many people, I would have to go through the application process.

What host would you use?
No idea, All I know is I would need to rent a dedicated server with 128GB of Ram.

What server mod would you use*?
Bukkit
