You know how many parents have a lock on the cookie jar or closet?
Well, we had a lock on our 'WiFi closet'(yes my dad build a closet around it, with a lock and key) when I was a kidI always ran private Habbo and RuneScape servers from home so I needed to port fortward but my dad believed that let the hackers in!
So there was a constant battle for the modem within out home between me and my dad

Also one of the very first things I (thought) I bought for myself was a domain name for my Habbo server except..
...there was an automatic-payment block on my account that we didn't knew about so the registar could not get the money from my account
After we came come from a vacation there was a bill for over 60 euros for the domain and costs
So that was a looot of money for a kid and worst thing.. I didn't even got my domain lol!

So yeah.. running games and hosting stuff is let's say one of the first things I did on the interwebz
The whole journey started when I accidentally converted my website with Habbo furni prices (lol) from WYSIWYG website to HTML so I had to learn it
Turned out, it opened up a whole universe!

@stux Habbo Hotel is responsible for far more than we ever could imagine. The influence is far reaching.

Until my little brother downloaded a keylogger and everything was gone

Does anyone remember Coke Music? It was like Habbo but with a simplistic system to create music and play it for others.

I really can't believe how much fun I had collecting furniture in Habbo.
