how do you go about buying servers or shells or whatever they are that can keep my game online without my own computer on 24 seven. Thanks for any advice. I have no knowledge in this regard.
Where do I get them?

You can try Xirre's host system http://www.byond.com/games/Xirre/ShellServer

If I remember correctly its free for any original games.
A.T.H.K. should be willing to help you out there. You can pay a wide array of shell hosting services for use of the shells. Zen hosting, BYOND whatever that A.T.H.K. runs, and Xirre(I guess) all are BYOND-specific.
I use BYONDpanel. Super easy, good price, helpful and fast responses to any problems. A 24/7 solution.
^Can confirm, A.T.H.K's BYONDpanel is a great service for the price. Plus, he's a scholar and a gentleman if you don't blow him up with tickets threatening lawsuits because your server wasn't set up in under 20 minutes.
Okay good cause I need something to support the thousands of players that I know are just waiting.... any day now.
