Well, correct me if I am wrong, but I just run a dedicated server off my computer using my dedicated server client. Couldn't everyone that hosts a server just buy a new, GOOD computer for $1000 - 2000 and stop spending $179 ++ a month for someone else to host? Is it more complicated then having a good computer that you can use just to host???? If so lemme know, because it's simple to me

Yeah! Man that makes perfect sense! Except for the fact that the T1 line needed to host a 16+ person server costs 1000-10000 a month. Logic is your friend.

Are you really sure T1 is necessary? I run off probably low or mid speed cable and i can host 10 person server just fine when its not dedicated. Dedicated speeds it up. If someone was in a good area and got fast cable, then would they really need T1?
if not, thanks for feedback everyone, i was just curious

My friend can host fast 16 player servers with a cable modem...
We use it all the time, and theres never lag. And no, it's not a LAN connection or anything like that.
But yeah, Renegade's internet code sucks.
"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." -- Theodore Roosevelt (1918)
"The danger to political dissent is acute where the Government attempts to act under so vague a concept as the power to protect "domestic security." Given the difficulty of defining the domestic security interest, the danger of abuse in acting to protect that interest becomes apparent. --U.S. Supreme Court decision (407 U.S. 297 (1972)
