Hello I am new to creating servers, so this will be one of my first projects, and i want to definitely make it a very unique server.

I have $300 to spend on it, I am asking that what is the best minecraft hoster/vps to go with for a starting server?, i am willing to put months into building the cities/places on this server so there will not be many people on within the first few months of it being up. I would like to know the cheapest, and the most reliable.

I am also looking for a plugin dev to create us many different unique plugins, including a very heavy mmorpg plugin which this server will be based around, plus plugins for minigames etc.

A building team may be needed since i want this map to have insane detail, and very big structures and cities.

I would just like the know where i should start, and what i should really put my money towards, because i really want to make this big.

Thanks

-Ethan

Hello subjectskydiver. My name is Dante. I am the Owner of the dev team -[UNITY]-
I like the ambition you are taking to create such a unique server. I myself enjoy developing Unique servers only and would gladly allow you access to my development team of skilled minecrafters in all fields of development, from Plugin developers to Build teams, to Permission masterminds. I can definitely help you get to the right people RIGHT NOW.

If you are interested in taking a step in the right direction and not having to worry about gathering talent please make an application here:

I look forward to speaking with you about this project in the future. and Btw I do have resources that will allow you to get a dedicated server of more than 32 gigs for under $100 per month. In a data center, with absolutely no BS about customer service and Unrivaled DDoS protection

Oh and btw the kid above me known as corey is trying to pass off Imperialcity as his own build. you can find that build here: http://www.planetminecraft.com/project/ ... rial-city/
See? this is the kind of crap you wont have to deal with if you go through us.

Hello, DCWaffle here. I am an actual server owner with experience. It seems I may be the first actual server owner here, excluding nickfromgreece. Do NOT go with MCProHosting. i can not stress this enough. They overcharge, and to be honest, they do not give even the slightest shred of decent hosting. That is, however, my own opinion. Whether you would like to take it or not, I can prove my worth. I have owned many servers, including Play.Doicraft.Com. I don't own it anymore, I sold it. I have ran hosting companies and built my own PC just for Minecraft. Take it or not. Anyways, you will want to be able to get a combination of things with your, believe it or not, small budget. You will need building, a domain, hosting, graphics, and staff. If you would like to contact me via Skype, I can give you many connections to all of said requirements. Although, you don't really need graphics and a domain, I would advise that you get one. They will make your server look professional and also a domain is just way easier to type than a bunch of numbers.

My Skype is DCWhaffle.

If you want a decent host, dont go with MCProhosting, as far as I know its a shared host and for the amount of money you are willing to give there are plenty of hosts that give you full root access which allows you to customize the entire system the server is running on.(They might offer root access I haven't used it they might do but I don't think so.)

Nice,

Hey Ethan,

My name is Ethan too XD. Also, my name in minecraft is groundoesmc (Yes, I am a youtuber.) I am 13 years old, but I am also a good minecraft plugin developer too. I have helped over 5-6 servers with there plugins because my dad is a Java coder so, I understand a bit of plugin mechanics. I may seem young but i'm pretty good. I have worked with about 100 plugins in total. If you are looking for a host, I prefer Mcprohosting. It has Ddos protection, 24/7 service, Modpack support, great staff, and much more. I am also staff on about 5-6 servers (sorry, I am so lost).

If you would like to contacct me, contact me thru

skype :groundoesmc
