Ok I just had a interesting conversation in teamspeak with someone about how much it costs to keep these servers up. I am trying to get a little verification here.

Is there anyone that can give a list as to how much each month it costs just to keep this running?
Is it possible for whoever's in charge to tell us how much they get in donations each month to keep this running?
Everyone seems to be of the opinion that everyone else is donating so they don't have to, which means nobody is. I know that ASKING for money might get them in trouble, but is there any reason they can't tell what % of each month's goal they meet each month for basic upkeep?

talking from own experience and knowing that rogean works as a sysadmin id say the upkeep each month is less then 10$ even though they will make you believe its 500$+

Rogean rents rack space in a co-lo data centre by Lightower.
He owns multiple pieces of hardware in this rack space, including servers and networking equipment.

I went looking, as he has in the past posted photos of the setup but cannot find them at current.

This is (unfortunately) not a setup that can easily be run on a cheap VPS setup, and while never posted I would estimate the costs to be hundreds per month.
