-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Load (at least for me) increases on every patch. It's getting harder to be a provider when I can't even put more than one or two public servers on a box. Have to charge like $4.00 USD/slot just to keep the boxes even remotely profitable...and no one wants to pay that either.
