Most of the Dofus private servers (if they're still around) are french and not 24/7 (privately hosted)
I myself never played any, but I've heard people talk about them and seen some on YouTube. But most private servers advertised for Dofus on YouTube are like most servers advertised for eoserv: Long-Gone
I think another reason why there's so few private servers, is because none of their owners made them for a reason other than to just waist time (in my opinion)
Anyways, good luck finding one. If you do happen to find one, let me know :D
EDIT: About the subscription fee, you're now able to pay with in-game money as well as real money (current in-game price for 1 week is about 180,000-220,000). Though the new UGC (Ultimate Game Card) system doesn't work with Dofus, so I would use another method if you plan to subscribe at
some point
