It's quite true :
Server are hosted on the computer we use. (Linux only).
We use Frogmod (written by Vampi), you can download it with svn @ :
http://frogmod.googlecode.com/svn/trunk
You have to compile it yourself (under Linux) and then run the "frogserv".

You'd have to figure that one out. Atm i can only run one server, but this week I'll have my permanent server system. So I May be able to run another one on the machine I'm currently running my server on ( as it will become secondary )

Though the reason for the switch is that the current server machine Is a tablet PC I bough for handwriting notes at school, therefor I'd like to free it up.

PROBABLY because mine is being switched to another box, and vampi's is under maintainence ( I think )  It's not easy to keep em up 24/7, at least in my case.

And mine is in my parents bedroom, atm in France it's very sunny and temperature often go over 35° in the server's room...
That's why I can't keep it up always...

well mine is still a failed attempt at having something i like, i think i may be able to get $10 a month for a dedicated gaming server which seems fair cause i earn a lot more then that at macdonalds LOL XD

Yes, it's possible to rent a server. You'll have to google to find some good hosts. Geographic location also matters (good ping depends on it). We're from all over. Me and Skylax from europe, Jake and Cate from Canada and US.
