1@SvenW Next time I will re-phrase my question so that it is in a professional context. I mean of course it's impossible that a professional would work from home or host a game server as part of a business! Apparently this guy is also in violation? serverfault.com/questions/159/…– MetaGuruCommented Mar 27, 2012 at 14:38

1@SvenW: FAQ or not, it doesn't matter in this case. It's going to be the same question and answer with "Minecraft" replaced by another word.– gparentCommented Mar 27, 2012 at 14:39

1@Ryan - yes, that's correct. If the question is regarding anything in a non-professional capacity, it's off-topic, even if the OP is a professional in his/her day job.– EEAACommented Mar 27, 2012 at 14:41

1@Ryan, that question is three years old - a time when the site's "topics" were not clearly defined. If that question was asked now, it would be closed.– tombull89Commented Mar 27, 2012 at 15:14

1@ErikA that's not what I meant at all, what if they were a professional who's home was their office and server hosting location, just had to ask– MetaGuruCommented Mar 27, 2012 at 16:08

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. windows-7), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
