Server hosting is for people who don't have good enough internet, want to have a dedicated server, or just don't want to host out of their home for whatever reason.
I imagine your MC server is really stuffty in terms of lag and stuff.

I have fibre optics and a pretty decent server computer, I just don't want to host it out of my own home for personal reasons. Mainly because I'm not skilled enough with FTP or Java to be able to fix any issues that come up.

no mods whatsoever, so you can go break into peoples houses and take their things.

Hm. An anarchy game would be pretty neat to try out. I'll definitively consider it.
Anti-Block:
if you did an anarchy server, make it on a floating islands map.

I highly recommend LethalDrive for a hoster. Also, I suggest you enable a whitelist to prevent griefing, and unwanted players.

I mean, I might do that, the only problem then is I have to manually enable everyone who can play. And that's a pain in the ass.
