NFO and Gameservers.com only rent out game servers (You can't buy them). Most people that run a server use fast download. There seems to be some sort of glitch if you don't use fast download for distributing your game content.

There are a few people who rent a VPS (virtual private server) and then run what ever programs they want on it including game server and/or webservers. This is usually only recommend for people that have extensive knowledge of running servers and handling all of the security that is required for such a situation.

There are also some people who try to host a game server from their home but this is generally not recommended because the upload speeds required for a game server are generally not available for most residential internet services.

If that didn't answer your question, what exactly are you asking for?
