Eh... pardon the hyperbole. I'm about to have an income going for myself, which means my stuff will not be dependent on my mother's earnings anymore. I'm also getting a rather large internet subsidy ($60/mo for free and I buy whatever more I want), so I could purchase enough bandwidth on down the road for a home server I'd build. I know it may sound icky and you may not trust me for it and if that's the case then alright, but I want to build a reputation out of commitment to things around here so people don't think I'm some talker or anything like that...
What exactly are you using to host the Minecraft server? Is it with PC's junk? In that case I may be a bit hesitant to intrude if Steve's running it. Is it on a box you use at home, or is it a virtual private server? Is it on a shared Minecraft-tailored host? If it's a box or VPS, things like CPU, disk config, and RAM count would be nice to know. If it's on a shared host then RAM and storage limits would still be useful. I just want to help, s'all.
