Use the spell check feature too!  It's right down there at the bottom for a reason.  As for fundraising to upgrade the server, it's really not needed right now.  The server has a quad core Xeon processor in it and 4GB or RAM, 250GB HDD.  We typically utilize about 5% of the processor on a busy day, we use about 50% of the RAM and that doesn't go higher or lower based on usage, but each game server uses a set amount of RAM.  We're using about 50% of the HDD.  So as you can see we really have no need to upgrade the server, if/when we start getting close to high utlization of something I will let people know about it.  As for the pings they are running very good and aren't necessarily effected when you already have very high end hardware.  As long as your server box is running good and it has plenty of power your ping won't be effected.  The datacenter we are in is putting out some pretty nice bandwidth and I have yet to see any ping problems or hear any problems either.  I did physically visit the datacenter a few weeks ago, met with the owner and discussed future plans, seems like they are very stable and looking at growth but currently have plenty space and bandwidth to support MUCH more than what they have, with current plans to add even more capacity.  At this point we need donations to pay the datacenter for bandwidth and hosting fees but we DO NOT need any additional donations for the server or upgrades to it.  I hope I made this clear, if anybody has any other questions please let me know.

Keep in mind that you will get pauses when you first get into the server because punkbuster is syncing and taking screenshots.
