I used to host counter strike games and voice servers, every one else just gives you a random port number like 39281, ugly, difficult to remember, awkward to tell people. I wrote a script that would generate ports that where easy to remember stuff with doubles and triples like 4040 or 44455. I found it super helpful, no customers ever mentioned it, but if you are doing UX right I guess they should never notice it.
