I sure did, you should consider getting a subdomain to refer to your server. I had "deathmatch.BoooM.co.uk", when we needed to "change IP", we could do that without any problem at all. "Load balancing"? Are you kidding? If a server can't handle 18 players, it should simply not have 18 slots, there is no problem here. "Promoting new servers"? Why? Why should these servers get any additional promotion over any other new server out there? If the server is good, it'll get it's own crowd.
