Really? I know what it takes to run servers. I'd give my right arm for the current FReepathon 375K budget to run my company's 50+ servers.

I have no interest in your private life, but since you breached the subject, it's reasonable to expect better details. What's "a fraction of that?" Are you the sole attendant for the 50+ servers? If not, have you accounted for the salaries, government contributions and benefits of everyone who is? and have you included the cost of hardware replacement and software maintenance? or is that "contracted out?"
Finally, are you available 365/24/7 as moderator and gopher? Does your company require moderators?

Yeah pretty much, unfortunately.

Yep.
