I don't really sign up to free domains like that. For me, as a personal thing, it usually means that it's not a serious forum, and lots of the time they get deleted due to lack of caring. I'm not being judgmental though on anything for your forum. It's just something I don't do in general because of that one reason.

The first part of that means that you don't really run a MySql database from your computer for a website. Your host will give you the number of MySql databases that it will allow. So you can't really run a forum from your computer since you need to set one up to keep track of all the data, such as user registrations and posts. FTP is just a file transfer protocol, which allows you to keep a directory of the files that are displayed or used on your website. If you run that directory from your localhost, it's basically the same thing, except they aren't going to a domain.
Second, this isn't the place to refer anything about HF, and you didn't understand, as you were the OP asking about an issue you had. -rep doesn't come without a cause..

I don't see how that relates to a sub domain at all
