High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.
We would be mainly hoping the DEV would like to do it along side us and take a % However, we would likely arrange to do a fall back price if the developer doesn't feel comfortable with the gamble but that price would be something we would need to talk about with all 3 of us to agree on something reasonable as we are working with a budget.
Also to note, The last server i owned with Absently made $700+ in donations and $300 on the sale and that was after running 1 MAP. We are planning on running many maps of this skyblock server which profit would be % for each map the developer is with us.

This is an example of server doing exactly what you are doing "Guaranteeing" me a % cut of the revenue but in the end the owner ended up scamming me. What can you do to secure the developer on their side so that they feel comfortable. In my opinion $600 is wayyyyyyy to cheap and what is the point of mentioning your budget. here is why I don't trust this.
1) budget is wayyyy to low. Its normally $150 for the logo alone, Then $130 for a decent dedi, Then depending on the build a 200x200 with a pvp zone below $150-200, Then other builds such as KoTH and other events ($30-50) and finally advertisements $200. In my calculations it seems like you are trying to budget way to hard instead of going for quality. Total around $730. Note: This is excluding forums, and a server store which will be about $180 for custom themes. Then $15 for the store to have the max everything so in total it would be about $925 for a server that is decent to start up
2) No guaranteed payment on the developer side
3) Advertisement plan, I do not agree with as its most likely discord nitro giveaways
These are the reasons why I personally wouldn't develop a plugin or plugins for this server as you aren't guaranteeing the developer any form of payment.
1. We are setting a realistic budget of how much we want to spend but considering Absently works full time and has a income coming in every month we can raise our budget if its necessary. I mentioned our budget to let anyone know who is viewing the thread that we do indeed have a budget, and that we are putting money into this project.
2. Like we said, we can talk with the developer regarding a payment if you was absolutely certain a % cut you wouldn't want to take and that is fine by me and Absently but we would have to talk with you more in depth regarding that however, some developers may see this as a long term thing more than just a quick thing but that may be only some.
3. I don't see how this has any relevancy to hiring a developer? But just to satisfy you, we will be putting money into discord advertising, Media advertising via YouTube and possibly twitch, Server Trailer and anything else we come up with.
why exactly are you making them buy the highest and the best of quality they're just a start up server with a small budget, an 80$ budget would really do, they can use a free forum software - namelessmc - and use buycraft free plan doesn't require to be nice whats important is that it works. builds are idk prob prices fair, advertisement depends really on where they go, and plugins i have no idea but they should have a good amount left. anyhow think more rationally next time no need to make everything soo expensive

I actually really appreciate aha, we are trying to keep everything with a realistic price range as money doesn’t grow on trees for us all We have already paid for an exclusive spawn build, 3D hand drawn logo, a good handful of premium plugins and currently setting the buycraft up on the premium version as i feel this is more professional.
