XenForo Do you use XFES/Elasticsearch?

That's a worry of mine too, as to why I want to learn load balancing.

I think it's even possible to see where you're getting the most traffic (like US: East or West coast, Canada, UK, or Aussie, etc.) and load balancing judges based on that to pop an instance up in that location so that the processing speeds aren't only better, but response times too. Someone with more knowledge would have to correct me on that, but if that's true, that is one of the most awesome aspects I find with it.

And for the same reason, I wouldn't like to find out the limits. Instead, I'm much more comfortable with a server that I know can take it. I do monitor it sometimes, but I don't need to worry about it this way and wonder when we'll hit our limits.

Probably for the best then as even little things like that can negatively impact your mental health and then have an effect on your overall life. So, it's probably worth it, and understandable, for you to pay the extra to relieve that worry.

I don't have a concern over money, but I didn't get to where I am by overpaying or other unscrupulous spending. I'd rather buy an extra share of a high dividend ETF.

Forums are also secondary/thirdary(?) sources to me too, so that also factors into my decision to do it the way I do.

Aye, when something technical happens, I do tend to stress a bit about it. There's something shameful for me personally to see my server offline. It shows an incapability. I know that's a bit exaggerated, but you know what I mean. I'm always relieved when it's all fixed and working perfectly. Luckily this doesn't happen too often, and I know there's always some people willing to help when I ask.

No. It's completely understandable, considering you run an admin forum.

I run general and niche topics with low user bases that if it went offline, I wouldn’t care as much till I could get it back online for the good Ole apology/welcome back email.

And for 99% people that is sufficient too. Anyone can fuck up sometimes. And often, it's not even by our doings.
