We are currently experiencing the highest load we've EVER had on both the wiki and the forums. We are pushing almost 60Mbps! This is amazing, and we're extremely excited how this is all going to work out.
Most people don't realize that the forums and wiki are not run by notch or Mojang Specifications! We are just a group of dedicated minecrafters like yourselves!
Right now, however, we're attempting to keep our heads above the water during the strain, and we've ran out of options, so we're asking for a ONE TIME donation. The ads seem like they will probably keep us afloat after each month, however, we won't see the first bit of income from that until the end of October, and we need new server now!
Anyone who donates will be given a special forum title of "Forums/Wiki Sponsor". They will get to keep that forever! We will also be having 2-3 SMP servers up and running that ONLY Sponsors will get to join! Anyone who donates over $10 will also get a free 14-day trial to hostiio.com's minecraft servers! You'll get to see what it's like running your very own minecraft server!
Here's the link:
Donations are now closed, we appreciate all who helped us make it thus far!
Also, just to reitterate this, you are NOT donating for a new server for minecraft.net, these servers are JUST for the forums and wiki.

I will donate in a couple days, my bank account is low on funds and I gotta make a deposit, but I certainly will give at the very least $10.
No pressure, any amount is greatly appreciated, hell even the thought counts and your life is more important than us, so don't feel the need to strain yourself financially to help out.
You've giving people who donate $10+ one free hour of what, exactly?
Of a hosted minecraft SMP server. It includes McMyAdmin, a wonderful server administration tool designed by our very own PhonicUK, and it also uses mercurial for differential backups every 5 minutes, and when a new user logs on. It's basically point and click to start a server, no config editing or nonsense like that. It's also hosted on amazon EC2 so it's got all the bandwidth you could need.

Haha, its not that I don't have the money, its just I have most of it on hand at the moment. Long story short I haven't deposited the money I've earned from working on the side into the bank yet. My bank account has like $9 bucks in it right now haha, and I've got a very large chunk of money just sitting on hand cause I'm laaaazy. Will go to the bank when its open, I need to put the money in anyway.
I love this game, I love the creator, and I love the fact that it has people willing to work on it like you guys to make it the best it can be. Hell. I'll donate to help this worthy cause.
