What's a good stable, secure server in Canada/US?

[cyanyde 165]

I've been playing for well over a month now, Steam says I've got 151 hours played, but that doesn't count single player.

I had a home server for awhile, and I loved being able to pitch my tent and store supplies in it, but then the server went down.

I am looking for a fairly friendly server, that isn't going to randomly go down in the near future, that keeps the beta at the latest stable version, and is in my timezone. I don't care if it's 3pm=1/CH=1 or not, difficulty level doesn't matter, I just want to know that the server will be there, when I try to login tomorrow.

I realize that I'm risking giving away my location before it's even posted, but I don't intend to divulge the server that I choose in this thread, for this reason, I ask that server admins pm me their ip/server info, if they are interested gaining level headed, non-hacker, friendly players..

Otherwise, just post your details in this thread and I'll check out the servers that are suggested until I find the best one for me.

Thanks in advance for any replies. Trolls/flames will be ignored.

Servers also have variable restart times. Some restart in 6 hours, some in 12 hours, some once in 24 hours. The game is in Alpha, so it's hard to say if any bugs you come across are because of the game's alpha state or the server is buggy. A very hard question, but in answer, I play mostly on servers that are restarted regularly since it yields more loot and more loot means more fun in shorter time frames and are generally more 'stable'. Note I use the word stable loosely for the aforementioned reasons and in subjective context.

Thanks for the input. I'll keep that in mind.

At the moment my main concern in finding a server that won't be gone from the server list in a few days.

I also would take the population into account, because it's no fun trying to join a full server when your playtime is limited.

Any suggestions on specific servers?
