    -Edit: Fundraiser is now complete we have the hardware and enough to ship it off to the new host. ETA is 2-3 weeks.
    If you still want to donate, great! Every bit helps.

    Herocraft needs you! New and improved host & server!


    We have $3700 out of $3700 needed!
    [|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||]

    No we're not bleeding out and begging for cash, but if you haven't considering donating to this awesome project, you should! The costs of running this project are quite high, this is not counting the countless man-hours that the volunteer staff put in every day making sure this is the best server!

    We have some mighty big expenses coming to Herocraft soon. These include;
    • NEW host setup charges - $350
    • NEW monthly charges - $120
    • Advanced DDOS protection* - $200
    • NEW HARDWARE - $3050
    If you do donate, it will help further the best hardcore minecraft server ever; everything you put in goes back to Herocraft! We strive to bring you the best possible experience for Hardcore RPG and couldn't possibly do it without the people who help keep this alive!

    For quick reference feel free to review our donor abilities on the wiki

    >Donate to Herocraft<

    *may only be available on a need basis

    What is the asterix by the Advanced DDOS Protection for? Does it mean it does not fully stop DDOS attacks?

    Why is there a star next to DDOS protection...? Is it extra-important?

    Edit: Fail, saw the explanation... lol
