darkcurves January 11th, 2004, 20:06 Nice one.
outkast January 11th, 2004, 21:42 would you guys prefer 50 posts all at once or something like 20 posts and then 10 posts a month to keep hosting?
I am always open to suggestions on this :)
jason120au January 11th, 2004, 22:10 Where did you purchase or who did you get to design your site, it looks very impressive.
outkast January 11th, 2004, 22:15 I know some people don't like them, but it is from Template Monster:

belladonna January 12th, 2004, 01:44 Neither of those domains are working.
Is the site down?
outkast January 12th, 2004, 19:34 site works for me and the people in the forum.
I just updated the data transfer to 5GB :)

how about I make it less posts?
35-40?
needgigssponsor January 16th, 2004, 23:31 hi,
allow me to give you some idea on how this posting system dynamics works.
i think this is counter-productive. for this minimizes spontaneous posts, for fear that the forum member might violate some vague rules that the moderator has set.
fear is always a barrier in free-flowing constructive discussion and this type of system doesnt promote that.
good specs and offer though.

I AGREE
I prefer ADS on page over posting in a forum, because posting becomes repetitive and redundant
any post could be deemed SPAM
:coolmusic
outkast January 17th, 2004, 09:01 I've had 5 members who got 50 good posts in 1-2 days, so it is very possible. With all those threads now, you can just add to them and your post count will increase a lot in a day.
I use the post-to-host method because it actually stops most people who abuse this service. If it was around 25-50mb with 1GB transfer, then I could have given it without posting, but I won't have a package like that because I want to offer a lot, but I would like people to give something in return for this free hosting.

But the problem with this method is that u get crappy and meaningless posts. You really gotta be very strict like www.clubhost.us .
outkast January 17th, 2004, 11:32 I recieved a lots of complaints from other people too, so I decided to make it 35 posts for the hosting.
belladonna January 19th, 2004, 00:20 Im not into dictators, but dude, its YOUR hosting. You can have your requirements set whereever you want them to be.
There will ALWAYS be people complaining. You have to satisfy and protect YOURSELF before others, because there are FAR too many users out there that will SCREW you over.
tdweb February 8th, 2004, 18:59 It must be posted 35 good post:cry2:
