Back in August I mentioned that I was contemplating getting away from shared web hosting and serving the Hardfought website from my home. There's no real reason to spend the money every year for a site that gets minimal traffic, and I have plenty of bandwidth here. So I bought the hardware a couple months ago, and found the time to finish the process.

Had a few hiccups during the migration, but nothing I couldn't handle. Long story short, phpBB3 and PHP 7.x don't play nice. Found some tweaks and code fixes that resolved the issues I was seeing, so we're all good. Learned quite a bit in the process as well, since it's been over ten years since I've hosted a website locally... in a very real sense, we've come full circle after 16+ years of existence. Running Ubuntu server 16.04 w/ LAMP configuration. Hosting my business website on the same dedicated box. I think you're going to be pleasantly surprised with the much faster load times and smoother functionality.
Technically, I could throw a CS port on it as well, the amount of resources available are crazy compared to what we had available in the past. Hmm
Anyways. Next time you visit, post something. Dig into your profile, play with settings, etc. If you notice any bugs, lemme know. Thanks gang.
with as many kids as you have, I don't see how you'd have the time. I barely have time to play the occasional nethack game, and it's turn-based.
