I can host such a site (which is basically now a low-activity forum) for $50 a month on a VPS

Really ? so you're saying 50$ VPS can stand direct download links of some softwares on this site ? plus member blogs/sites, member software and respective bandwidth usage ?

Obviously you are not familiar with the hosting industry, in that case I'll point you to a random google query result:

Blah. Blah. Do you even understand when hosting companies suggest you to move to dedicated server ? Obviously YOU are the one who is not familiar with hosting industry.

Just a quick note: The day we moved from a VPS to a dedicated server was one of the best days in the life of this site.
On a VPS you are sharing a server with other sites and have no control over what they are doing -- leading to huge swings in responsiveness of the server and contentions for resources, and no way to figure out why things are going wrong when they do and the site grinds to a halt.
Trying to host a site like DC on a VPS would be (and was) an exercise in frustration for everyone. Gothic, who does all the server administration for DC and has been a life saver could tell you more about the nightmares of trying to run a big site on a VPS.
