Server upgrade

[Alley]

It has come to the attention of the staff we have an opportunity we won't have before a very long time if we miss it.
Simply put: There are some servers up for grab without setup fees that are significantly better than what we currently have. Gaming oriented servers on top of that.

There are three major points that make this extremely interesting, for a mere 10$ difference (Current price is 70$, this will be 80$):
- CPU frequency bumped from 3.4ghz to 4.0ghz with Turbo available. This will significantly reduce server lag, especially when under stress.
- Gaming oriented networking (packet priority in the DC) so this will likely resolve some net issues.
- Larger SSD so we can store more data (we are currently about to be short on space with no ability to physically expand)

The little issue is that the no setup fee offer ends on May 31st so we need to move fast if we want to carry on with this, otherwise we will remain stuck with the current server quite some time. All in all, there is need to gather at least 80$ before Friday this week to ensure we have everything needed to move our stuff in time. I know this is short and believe me I wouldn't be writing this if we weren't going to have some serious gains from this.

In order to keep track of this I have reactivated the donation widget in the sidebar. Our minimum goal is 80$ US, which is about 71€ / 55GBP.
The full price is 80$ (+ 3$ once).

If possible, send your donations through the pitchinbox widget (which will redirect you to paypal) so the tracker is automatically updated.
Otherwise, you can send your donation directly to our paypal discoverygcserver@gmail.com as found here: http://discoverygc.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=1236

Edit: The server will still be located in France.

I updated the OP to reflect this. It will still be in France, no worries so the ping should stay the same for pretty much everyone (and get better for people who had issues).
