Also, thinking that we are right now internet era and there are lots of well sources of internet and can be used to denial of any service. Considering that the server you are offering will collapse. I have experienced for a long time, say more than 8 9 years. I faced several situations. Therefore, i just want to warn anyone who is trying to set living ultima online server. Even in my shard, i have still experienced same issues sometimes. High load may cause server denial. I'm right now spending money to firewall more than the server host cost. This is terrible issue Kids make me annoyed. However, if you are not thinking global server and none would be informed about you whether your server have a future to compete other servers, there wouldn't be problem

I want people to keep in mind that, some of the hosting I am offering is *[FREE]* Also I've had a lot of experience in administrating gaming servers and have already ran a very successful Sphere51a Ultima Online Server.

I'm not the least bit worried about DOS attacks... or script kiddies in general. The CentOS6.4 server will run fine with an average of a 100+ users. I do though want to note that if you have an international player base or the majority of your players are not based within the U.S. they will encounter some form of latency. However, I am also offering paid hosting from a 100mbit line located within a secure data center backed by industry leading firewalls and DDoS protection.
