what will happen if we're moved to a cheaper server? will that mean that we'll have to start over from square one?
I probably should have clarified. It would be the same map, but I might need to remove some non-essential plugins for lag reasons.

we should have a secret store that mojang won't know about i mean if they can't find out about it then they can't shut us down
A secret store is a funny idea, but it wouldn't really help. Mojang isn't going to find our server randomly. The only way they'd find us is if some player got mad and decided to send the store URL to them.

Damn that sounds risky.
Not really. It would be stupid for Mojang (a Swedish company) to attempt to sue me (an Australian) for a small server hosted in the US. We'd likely just get some sort of cease and desist letter.

Also is this a solid "yes,we're shutting down"? Because I was wondering if it was time to blow my cash yet
It is not solid yet. I can keep the server going with my own money for a little while, but there would be no point if people no longer want to play.
Games don't make people violent, lag does.

Well, seeing as no one ever plays on protocol anymore (sadly but true) I think a smaller server host would be the best thing to do, cheaper, and provides room for "IF" protocol ever reaches more then 1 person a day on, we could upgrade again.

Also, maybe if we could make it a timed thing, the longer your on the server, the more commands you get, ETC after 24 hours of playing, you get a ___, after 48 hours ____, ETC. that could be a good, and interesting way to give commands to people.

That's actually a really clever idea, Colbert. This would've been useful even before, pity you didn't say anything earlier... or that I didn't see it earlier, if you did post it.
If I don't answer, it doesn't necessarily mean I'm not there.

Probably, no one is going to enforce this rule. All the servers with huge monetization systems are still alive and well. I brought this up on one of them, people had a laugh, and everyone moved on.

If it's not affecting them I'm pretty sure it won't affect this one
