Costs and Donations

Running Minecraft servers has some costs, and I would really appreciate your help in keeping the server up and running. Below is a cost breakdown.

Costs

What Period How much
Electricity Monthly 24c/KWh * ~100W continuous = ~$17.53
Domain (midnightvalley.net) Yearly $15.16 ($1.26/M)
Internet Monthly $37.50 (Let's say $9.40 for the server)
Subnet's Time N/A Coffee
TOTAL Monthly ~29.19 + Coffee

Donations

I am really anxious about even asking for, let alone accepting, donations of any kind. However there are costs associated with doing this. Any little bit helps. I am not ready to accept donations yet, not until I feel like the servers are all up and running how they should. So for now, I just ask for your support.

Honestly, I am not even sure what platform I could use for this... Paypal? Patreon? Other... If you have suggestions, let me know.

There will be no rewards for donations, in-game or otherwise. Donations will also not affect your status on the server including bans, kicks or whitelist. Simply my gratitude and thanks. It really does mean a lot to me. :slight_smile:
