I only mean that the requirements are high enough for someone to stop using it at some point, losing users of that server in the process. It might be different if it didn't require running a server. Or they could choose to host their rooms on some existing server, I guess.

Or they could choose to host their rooms on some existing server, I guess.

I mean, that's sort of the point, right? Don't host unless you want to.

There are lots of great, long lasting servers with open registration out there. This blog post has some good examples:

  • envs.net
  • tchncs.net
