Question: Since RTB Hosting is gone, what hosting thing should I use?

Thats your loss. I don't think Cowboy is a teenage kid by the way.
TheUploader:
I would just use your own computer, cheaper, more control, not to mention you will know when the server is up or down because it is yours.
Hammereditor5:
Or I can give you a free server on HammerHost, my new hosting service.
Want to see the control panel?

I can vouch that Cowboy6 is not a teenager.
Lugnut:
There are 3 options for dedicated hosting solutions
1: CBMHost - they've been live for a while, they're free, and they recently upgraded. They're also run by an actual adult.
2: HammerHost - Yeah, ^ he ^ can tell you about that
3: LugHost - My own service, I'm finalizing testing right now, and will release within the week: http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=252713.0
The only other option is hosting it on your own, but that's not what you wanted.
Option 2 and 3 are paid solutions - arguably more reliable due to the motivation to keep them up. While unlikely, there is no guarantee that CBM will not just die suddenly for no reason.
Hammereditor5:
So the problem is fixed with Lug-host, I guess?
And no, HammerHost will now be free after beta-testing ends.
I will only go paid after 2-3 months of free hosting.
