Free Server Credits, Why We Should Have them

The MineHut community needs a better credit system.

Not exactly a free one, but a credit system better than the current one. I run a server on MineHut, and it really sucks because I wish I could have a server up for longer before the lack of players makes it shut down in 5 minutes. I understand MineHut doesn't want random servers up for hours and hours for no reason. Players that would never return to their server, but the 5 minute rule needs to be buffed for free MineHut users maybe the time in which the server shuts down should be 30M-1HR if a players aren't active. The current server rule could kill the potential of a server if maybe the admin is away for whatever reason at hours at a time.

The issue with that is hosting servers can be a bit expensive and a majority of people who use Minehut do not pay us a dime. We’re not going to be able to do something like that since it would be too pricey.

Anyone is able to start your server if they do /join servername in the minehut lobby anyways. So if the server is offline and someone wants to join it, they would just do that command to start the server. And it should automatically tp you to the server when its online but sometimes it doesn't. If it doesn't, just do the command again like 3ish minutes after you originally do it.

People can manually start your server if it is not whitelisted, and the wait time isnt that long. I dont see the point in upping it as its just more stress on the hardware side for minehut that they dont need with this newer surge in player count.

Hosting servers is very expensive and to be honest I dont know how minehut is able to support all of these free servers even for 5 minutes. also if at least 1 player is online on the server it wont shut down.
