Guest | | Looking For A Free Host (17th Apr 08 at 6:10pm UTC) | | OK if possible i am trying to find a free file host that will allow a 550mb upload limit at least, it will allow any file types to be uploaded, that has a mysql setup as well allows webhosting and php. I know the odds are low but i am looking for something like this so i can host my MMORPG game for beta testing.
Edit: if anything i need a cheap host if possible that will allow me these things, as well as allowing copyrigthed material, because if i was going to pay i was going to go through servage.net but they dont allow copyrighted material | |

Oh sorry, I thought you meant copyrighted to other people. If It's copyrighted to you, most hosters will allow you to. It's only when it's copyrighted to someone else.

pmwww | | Re: Looking For A Free Host (17th Apr 08 at 7:36pm UTC) | | | Unfortunately, I think you're out of luck. Hosting an MMORPG will take up massive amounts of bandwidth & CPU usage. Assuming the game will be popular, you may have trouble finding a VPS to host it on, even. | |

pmwww | | Re: Looking For A Free Host (17th Apr 08 at 9:33pm UTC) | | | To run an MMORPG you'll need ports opened and programs installed; something no non-VPS host I know of will do. | |
