Thats crap, there were alot of huge private servers which got shut down by aeria games after 2-6 months.
What you do need:
- Bulletproof hosting (no, you DONT get it)
- Security experts (no skiddies, which you all are)
- HIGH Knowledge about winserver and mssql
- Anonymous payment options (Paypal? kill yourself)
These are the very basic requirements to start a shaiya psever, the ones to keep it online are even higher.
At the other hand ... the owners of the 5 biggest pservers made about 30k monthly (~10k players, ap items for real money but much cheaper then aeria) ...
Well, 3 of these 5 got also arrested.
