Domains (at least in more "normal" TLDs) are relatively cheap (.com domains are usually around 10$ a year?). Would it be possible to get a domain for here? Ludi.com is taken, ut things like ludi.co and ludico.me aren't. Or you could just go with ludicom.com or ludicom.net or something. I'm also pretty sure smfforfree supports domains?

Where would you recommend buying a domain name? I'd be willing to pay $10 in a heartbeat. xD I think they do, although I'm not sure how well they're supported. I'll check into that.

It is forbidden, asking why is irrelevant.

hm. someone already took ludicom.com/.net/.org Where would you recommend buying a domain name? I'd be willing to pay $10 in a heartbeat. xD
http://www.godaddy.com/ is where I was pulling the prices from; not too sure how good they are. Note that non .com domains are usually somewhere between 15-20$/year. .info domains are CHEAPER for whatever reason, which explains why a number of small websites (around this size) I am aware of are .info

Does GoDaddy send physical mail to my address? I can buy the domain ASAP, but not if they'll be sending mail (I'd really rather not be explaining to my parents why I purchased a domain). Couldn't find an answer on Google so I figured I'd ask here.

It probably doesn't; for various reasons they HAVE to have it. If you move it's probably best to also change the address, it could theoretically get taken down otherwise.

hm. someone already took ludicom.com/.net/.org
the fuuu who would do that edit- I just went on ludicom.com and it said The domain ludicom.com may be for sale by its owner! and then there is a more details button so it may be worth checking that out

My country lay within a vast desert. When the sun rose into the sky, a burning wind punished my lands, searing the world. And when the moon climbed into the dark of night, a frigid gale pierced our homes. No matter when it came the wind carried the same thing... Death. But the winds that blew across the green fields of Hyrule brought something other than suffering and ruin. I coveted that wind, I suppose. It can only be called fate... That here, I would again gather the three with the crests... That I should lay my hand on that which grants the wishes of the beholder... That when power, wisdom, and courage come together, the gods would have no choice but to come down... The power of the gods... The Triforce! He who touches it will have whatever he desires granted! Pull List: Justice League, Justice League United, Secret Wars, New Avengers Favourite DC Characters: Supergirl, Pandora, Bleez, Batgirl, Green Arrow, Larfleeze

Domain name would be nice but haven't we been over this before? I'm not sure if SMF For Free will allow you to export SQL tables - At least I couldn't find the feature so the other solution is to email support or w/e. Which I highly doubt they'll just give you the SQL tables in any case.
Unless everyone is up for a fresh start.

I"m pretty sure smfforfree allows you to associate a domain to a forum; and a domain =/= hosting. I actually would be up for a fresh start for transfer to non smfforfree hosting, though.

For some reason I was thinking of getting a host as well., I just have the habit of linking the two together since it's normally what I look for. Well anyway a domain name should be able to direct to this place - I've never actually setup a domain name to another host though so that's a hazy topic for me.
