I am looking for a very kind person to host a server for me. I am unable to do it with my internet and computer, and I am not prepared to pay for a server hoster. I was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to be the hoster for me or recommend someone who would. I am hoping for my server to be PvP, towny etc. If you would be kind enough to do this for me or if you can recommend someone please PM me or post a reply. Whoever becomes the server host will get full admin powers.

I agree with what bam is saying, but i would like to be the host. I cannot run a server myself because my router isn't the correct model. I can't pay for the server, but i can run it smoothly and get it going. I'm an Op in 4 successful servers. I fully understand if you don't trust me, however please take my offer into consideration. If you dont trust me, you can always set me as an admin and see how things go from there.

Thank you.

I'm saying i will need your help and advice on how to run it, it would be my first time hosting. I know how to please people and what they want on a server, and i know how to keep it under control, however i will need some guidance from you. Even though i would be the host, it is still your server, so you should feel free to step in at anytime if i'm doing something that isn't to your liking.

Oh ok, I understand. Well. This is a link to setting up a server. Do you have skype? That would be a good way to keep in contact and also use screen sharing. http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Tutorials/Setting_up_a_server

By no means trying to be rude or downplay this, but this isn't the smartest of idea. Considering that Planet Minecraft is home to players from every background, you can get anyone posting: sure, I'll host. You could get a nice member who won't do anything bad, but chances are, you'll get a troll/griefer who will set it up, destroy what ever you build, and eventually just ban you from the server.

With that said, you (the "owner") would have no access to your computer (since the program[s] you need for remote access to the either: A)Cost money or B)Are free, but would ruin the privacy of the hoster's PC).

So, what you really need to do is set up the server yourself, and find a [i]very [/i]trusted internet friend, or a friend in real-life to host said server for you. Or, just browse through the server list on this site. I'm really not trying to be rude, just give you a heads up: people are usually d***s and you will get the short end of the stick.
