Maybe I told this story before I don't know but here is it again :blobcatgiggle: You know how many parents have a lock on the cookie jar or closet? Well, we had a lock on our 'WiFi closet'(yes my dad build a closet around it, with a lock and key) when I was a kidI always ran private Habbo and RuneScape servers from home so I needed to port fortward but my dad believed that let the hackers in!So there was a constant battle for the modem within out home between me and my dad :nerdcat:

Also one of the very first things I (thought) I bought for myself was a domain name for my Habbo server except.....there was an automatic-payment block on my account that we didn't knew about so the registar could not get the money from my accountAfter we came come from a vacation there was a bill for over 60 euros for the domain and costsSo that was a looot of money for a kid and worst thing.. I didn't even got my domain lol!

So yeah.. running games and hosting stuff is let's say one of the first things I did on the interwebzThe whole journey started when I accidentally converted my website with Habbo furni prices (lol) from WYSIWYG website to HTML so I had to learn itTurned out, it opened up a whole universe!

@stux Does anyone remember Coke Music? It was like Habbo but with a simplistic system to create music and play it for others.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MyCoke

@stux He may have been justified. I had trouble with port forwarding, so I DMZ’d the family computer so I could show my friends my half life maps. Nothing bad came of it.
