I have a few questions about the budget plans, so I sent you my questions in a private message. I hope you don't mind answering them for me!

^ Let us know if you have any more questions!

We just updated our site theme! Hope the darker scheme is easier on the eyes when you guys play late at night!

What java version are you running on your servers?

What java version are you running on your servers?

We run Java 8 on all of them at this time.

I use to use these guys along time ago but now it seams you never hear from them on here there is never any promotions or anything to keep up with other hosts they use to be really good about that now it seams they fell to the side.

We still have promotions - you just have to be on the lookout for them around the web (we even giveaway free servers on our Facebook/Twitter from time to time).

You mentioned that we don't have anything to keep up with other hosts, but we did launch our new SSD budget plans which is very well priced if you're looking for something cheap AND high performance.

We're still one of the biggest Minecraft hosts around - we haven't fallen anywhere.

I just started renting a top tier (Diamond) budget server from this company. I have ran FTB Infinity Evolved and The Ferret Business on the server. It has handled both extremely well. I have used tech support twice and it was extremely fast and the support personnel were professional at their job.

The last time I rented from them was three years ago. They were a great service then and are a even better service now. There panel has improved vastly. I would still recommend using FTP programs like filezilla where possible, as with the other server companies I have tried the panel isn't very good at file handling.

Very good server rental company with great budget servers. I will be highly recommending them.

Question - if I delete all the files via my FTP login, will the server recreate them all? I'd like to start fresh now that I have learned a little bit.

It seems this works on other providers, but couldn't find any info on Beastnode specifically.

Edit: prompt response from support indicates it is indeed the case.

Glad to hear our support had you covered! Just for reference on here: After deleting all files via FTP, the server can recreate all the files as new once you boot up your server with a chosen server JAR file.

You asked for it and we delivered! We now offer super affordable, premium quality, Minecraft server plans with DDoS protection and SSDs up to 12GB RAM! Check them out on our budget plans page: https://www.beastnode.com/budgetminecraft/

Cheap prices still means premium quality with us because our Minecraft servers run on an enterprise grade infrastructure that's been built from the ground up over many years of experience and growth (we were one of the first few Minecraft hosts to ever exist, so we've been around since the beginning and have seen it all) to ensure the best performance and prices!

I used beastnode for years when they first started just bought a server again will post how it goes.

So far so good i have realized that most server hosts suck now but beastnodes service has been consistent for all these years any other server hosts that i have tried are good for a few days then crap out but just as i remembered No lag. My only suggestion is you guys should be more active here on the forums like you use to be.

Thanks for giving our service another go! We love hearing what our clients have to say as we're always willing to improve! We're working on being more active on social platforms, but as always, we've always focused more on our clients via our support ticket system. That said, we're always upgrading our infrastructure (network/hardware) as time goes on just because we like new shiny stuff as much as the next tech nerd, so our performance will always exceed the requirements of some intensive plugins, mod packs, etc.

I used to have modded minecraft servers hosting with other hosts but it has been a while. I am looking at wanting to get a server hosted that is my custom modpack but not sure what specs I need. I have tried a host today and it seems like the servers RAM just keeps building and building without dumping anything before it just crashes as the allocated ram gets filled up.

Do your servers have proper RAM management so this doesn't happen? I really want to get my server up and running.

My Modpack is a technical and magical modpack with realistic world generation running around 200 mods, some small and some large.

Cheers

Usually the server's RAM building up constantly could indicate a problem with the world, the mod(s), plugin bugs, memory leaks, or even simply due to the minimum requirements of the mod pack itself (we've seen some mod packs using up to 8GB of RAM just so it can run stable). That said, we do have some basic Java optimizations in place to help with memory management in a general sense, but there are so many variables to RAM usage increases that we can't really guarantee it won't happen with us (assuming it isn't any of the above listed stuff), which is why we're usually open to dealing with complex technical issues like this on a case-by-case basis with our customers.

Would you be willing to sponsor us? If by any chance you would be I'll pm your our server plan.
