You can host a game with a dynamic IP address, if you had wisdom of what you are doing. I know you have to start somewhere and learn, but at least take effort TO learn, instead of saying "Look, I have a server, come play!", but not taking time to set it up properly.
If it's a private project that's one thing, but don't expect fans if you think you can just set it and forget it, like a bad infomercial.

If you can't even have a good enough connection to have a static IP, and need to use Hamachi, chances are you don't have descent enough bandwidth to host a Public Private Server.
Even with enough bandwidth, you're going to have trouble getting a descent site, especially getting rankings up.

Look up everything about servers? Did you, when once again, you never looked into how to host a server with a dynamic address?
And all you have been doing is justifying the flaws with your server.
The point that was being made here with this whole topic is "most private servers don't have what it takes to be good", not "sub-standard servers have reasons not to be".
I'm not trying to bash, and even if you can't set it up regular, it still falls into "not as good as others". And a server can only be good if learning and time is available by the admin of the server.
I could have very easily said "Look my server is up" early on, but instead decided to learn more of what I'm doing.
Instead of saying "I can't do this", I LEARNED HOW to set up a dedicated server machine, get DNS forwarding, and everything.
Even that is STILL not good enough to make a good server though, but you haven't even gone past using Hamachi. Again, even if there's a reason, doesn't make it a better server.
And instead of complaining and arguing about a flaw, or how something doesn't work, you should apologize about it, and look into a fix or workaround. Not thrash out at someone who gives constructive criticism, or explains flaws FOR you.
PS: Not trying to sound mean, but a little help so you sound more professional: use proper spelling.
Which: What you meant to say.
Witch: Sorceress, female mage.
Whitch: Not a word.
Take what I said, or leave it: it was meant to help, not insult, or I could have used much worse methods.
