Free hosting sounds Phishy...
Two thing before I begin:
1. THIS IS NOT INTENDED TO BE AN AD.
2. I may sound like one of those idiots from the "Slums" with no knowlage of being safe on the internet, but I am confused.
Here we go.
Ok, so I have wanted to set up a Tekkit server, and I am on a buget. My parents are a bit more wealthy than many in our city, but we are not "rich". Still, my Dad would never let me host a server on our Apple and would never "waste" money on a deticated host. So I looked for a free hosting service despratly. And I found one.
The host said that it's hosting is "Absolutly free" with "No hidden charges". It says all you have to do is complete a survey from one of it's sponsorors. It says I can use all the bandwith I want and have plugins. The host is: http//www.minecrafthosting.biz
But it seems fishy. I think it could possibly be a Phishing sceme. It claims that they
have sponsorers, and it looks like a company, but you can post anything on the web. I know about the Trade Description Act, but better safe than sorry.
The two questions are:
1. Is it safe?
2. Is it good? What dificultys have you had with it?
Thanks is advance!
