Are we allowed to tell others how to do it here? I'm not sure if this is a rule or not =/

please don't.  For security reasons it would be a bad idea having 20 different servers

* Package server creation instructions released
* Random people with badly coded mods setup such servers
* Random people with no coding knowledge download these mods
* Their YaBB boards become corrupt, and since they didn't back it up (and perhaps the database) they're in a bit of a bad state...
* They come here and plague us for help

Basically it's best if the only people with package servers are the dev team and the mod team, since they definitely know what they are doing, otherwise they wouldn't be on those teams.
