Hammerhost is really bad, dont bother with that.
CBM host is okay
ATF clan is as bad as hammer host.

Your chances of getting a service for free (or even a service at all) may be slim as your server is un original as lots of people have knife dm servers.

Best option for you is to get your own VPS. If you cant do that, find someone who can and ask if you can have one of their servers :)

I'm not going to stop defending myself. For a completely-free hosting service, I think the quality is good enough.

Make sure to not enter a shady deal like sharing a VPS with someone else unless you trust the other guy with your key.

A VPS is quite inefficient compared to a hosting service, because, assuming you get a Linux one, you will need a lot of RAM. Here's how:
• If you get Debian 7 32-bit as an OS, it will use 110 MB RAM, without other applications installed, except the default ones.
• On average, a Blockland server will consume 300 MB. But what if you have 30 players one day? Then you will need an extra 300 MB just in case.

So you'll end up needing 710 MB for the whole VPS. A Windows VPS will be even more RAM-inefficient than this. However, a hosting service has a lot of BL servers running next to yours, so it needs less "cushioning" RAM, because as there are more BL servers, the overhead for each one decreases.

If only someone was running a good and reliable hosting service on good hardware...

I really want this cheap Hetzner dedicated server, which is far better than my current home-hosting hardware, but I am stuck with my home server for one more month. HammerHost will definitely get a remote dedicated server before August.

Why? Can't you just cancel it?

No, my father spent > $100 on setup fees and a router. He says it's not worthwhile to switch after only 2 months.
