    I AM IN NO WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM ASKING FOR 24/7 SERVERS


    its a thing that I've seen other server hosts have where if you request to join a server that is offline it will start up, so i know its possible and that the team can pull it off, and i could care less if you put more ads in the server list. i just want to play my world with my friends without them having to make an account for me to manually share them so they have to start it themselves. that is the one thing that i dont like about aternos.


    and if abusing the server with bots to make it 24/7 is a problem in this situation, then i guess it can be solved by making it run for a limited amount of time like 5 hrs. or something.


    i think if this eventually becomes a thing, it should be optional to turn it on, so people can still have the experience they have today.


    if this feature does get declined, i would like to know why just out of curiosity.


    thank you for reading aternos, i hope you can decide on doing something like this :aternos-heart:

    This has already been suggested before, please use the search feature before suggesting.

    Aternos depends on ads. If you don't visit the website, you don't see the ads and Aternos wouldn't get the money to host your servers.

    Adding ads to Minecraft is not really the best idea because not a lot of people check the server list ads as on the website.

    Running your server 24/7 is not possible because we are a 100% free service. We only have limited resources, and we want to make sure that these resources are used by active players.

    Trying to circumvent that is a violation of our terms (https://aternos.org/terms) and will result in your server being suspended.
