Regarding the server (no not one of those lame threads)

Note: This is not a rant in anyway, however please do not close this thread because I do have a point (which is semi-feedback) to make after the following questions have been answered.

1. How much does it cost to get a server much better than the current one (in terms of DDoS "proof").
2. How much does it cost to maintain the server monthly?


Thanks, thats about it. Again, please do not close this thread after the questions because I have something to say.
