[ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ]
I've got to agree, it would be nice to have an motd to be able to have contact 
details and a bit of advertising for the people paying the server bill :).

A few other observations;

1) There is a resource leak in the server. One of our servers runs on a 256MB 
2.0GHz celeron box, it starts off find and over time memory usage creeps up to 
the point where it starts swapping and then performance goes out the window 
(The users see choppy movement and skipping in the client). Restart the server 
and everything is OK again.

2) When I look at the entire server list for Europe and I get about 30 servers, 
3 of which I've put up for the weekend. I know I'm not getting a small server 
list due to a link problem because I'm in the UK and the 3 servers are in 
Germany, so if I can see all of them I should see most of the western europe 
servers. Is the ship really that unpopular that there are very few western 
european servers outside the free weekends?

3) So if 2 is true about it being unpopular; Why outerlight aren't committing 
cash to having some servers of their own?, maybe someone would like to comment, 
because for around 500GBP per month I could run 10 24 man servers with in 
western europe (and no, this isn't an ad because I don't work for a hosting 
company), so why aren't they?

Just some thoughts....
