	:1) You're welcome. 2) I support that; best of luck. :) 3) The bulk of it goes to hosting. We don't really need more RAM because we actually can't fully utilize that much. Improved I/O performance would help us, and CPU never hurts. Our next new server is likely to be in the $4000 range. 4) Might want to try a different client (a lot of people like MUSHclient) and see if you get any different results. —[[User:Chaos\|Chaos]] 23:53, 22 May 2011 (EDT)		:1) You're welcome. 2) I support that; best of luck. :) 3) The bulk of it goes to hosting.

		+	Thanks so much for answering all of my questions (even the silly ones ^^) Chaos! <3
		+
		+	That's a surprisingly small footprint; I'm really impressed. I'm also glad to hear that a local map is in the future for this game; I'm also totally hoping that I hit gold with my web design (gods bless that endeavor!) so I can donate some excessive and well deserved monies towards this game...(I usually spend around $20/month on gaming when I'm not broke. Unfortunately, I'm broke. XD)
		+
		+	Oh, that leads me to another question! Most of the donated money goes to paying for development, right? (That's the impression that I got and it makes a lot of sense) but how much would it cost to upgrade the RAM, or whatever is most in need of an upgrade to get the lag to a minimum?
		+
		+	I hope I can figure out why my terminal is freezing during play, too, but I think that's funkiness on my end/internet connection issues with the router over here. :(
