   Not particularly hard. All servers require time and patience   
   and some amount of work and investment to maintain. For   
   anyone with a dayjob and any level of actual responsibility,   
   even a minor commitment of time can be far too much to ask   
   for, especially for free.   
      
   But I'll eventually get to that point.
