I have an idea which i think it might be impossible lol..
Hosting a Ragnarok Online Private Server (MMORPG)..
I am am sure that Frihost would not want to hsot a game server and support the idea of having private servers.
Well.. this games is really hot^^.. It can attract as many as thousands of ppl playing the game.

That would take way too much bandwidth; Frihost would not host it for long, or they would have to cut back really badly on the free web hosting.
FRIHost is just doing Webhosting ATM. I doubt Bondings would want to go to game servers just yet.
And BTW, Rangorak Online Private servers are "illegal", right?
There are some PHP based MMORPGs out there that are free. I'm thinking of installing one (not a lot of bandwidth-- it's not like it's realtime, it processes about the same amout of DB requests as your typical BBS or CMS). Keep in touch!

Great!.. Im a fan of text-based MMORPGs.. I was tired of 3D and 2D MMORPGs that it became boring.. (for me).. Im looking forward to it.. Im just around for support! 
I am also a fan of text-based RPGs. I wonder how much bandwidth the larger ones use...

The bandwith is proportional to the amount of users that you have playing. So even if you host a small MUD and you have 1000 users, you will still have a big bandwidth consumption.

if they want to host a server host a counter-strike one i will be the best guy there 
Hmm.. GUys.. IF Ro Private Servers are illegal, there wouldn't be any left now..
Where not a game server host, that would take out to much resouces and give others a disadvantage.

yeah. so if frihost is based in Europe, London and its game server is there. no one from US can play it, cause u'll have beautiful lag.
If Frihost starts hosting MMORPG, other members will want to host other games, and still other members will want something else to be hosted. Nope, this is not going to happen. Although I do want to host a game server myself, I do believe it is wrong to request such thing from Frihost. Why? Because Frihost is FREE
Erm.. if you mistaken, it is just a suggestion.. Thats why it is placed in the Suggestions Topic.
mmh hosting a CoD server myself i think its a really good idee
but not for a game like ragnarok
but maybe Battlefield 2?
or what about COD:UO
if you put the url in the server name i think it will attrack a lot of people
and those people sign-up for the hosting, use the forums and will click banners 
No, sorry, we won't host a game server. Frihost is a free web hosting website and we will always focus on that.
i think here are FREE WEB HOSTING..NO GAME HOSTING..
so ..why we use it for game hosting..i think its will be out from this website mission(i think the mission is=FREE WEB HOSTING NOT GAME HOSTING)..
thanks..
