The BBS is a small drop in the bucket when it comes to my tech, theres a fair
bit of equipment running in this tiny apartment. Its my preference to host as
much as I can at home, but OVH was the best VPS provider I've dealt with over
the years when I had a requirement at one time to run one.

Have always been a huge fan at home for Pfsense, Pfblocker-Ng and Snort, zero
problems here. Rack servers and commercial grade stuff in use; probably 
overkill but whatever I was using at work I had found the best way to really 
be good at my job was to go host the same setup at home.

No insult taken... its words on a silly net...
