And no one is there because the top posters have all been banned - including myself. It went from 277 registered users a day down to 50.
Yeah, I heard about that...craziness.

But we don't need more fanboy/fangirl drama like a lot of other places have. That stuff is just sickening, and it does keep people with interesting things to say far, far away.

No, not at this time. Although pretty much all of the 80+ members that moved there from 7W offered to contribute to operations, it was decided that we'd stick with the free board. No perks...but unlimited page views.

I don't know what the current bandwidth policy is over there.

Wait...maybe so. ??? Yes, it was mid-to-late '05. So, almost two years.

And I do accounting. SCARY, huh?

No...that was page views. Bandwidth is different. Bandwidth is a separate charge from page views. Pages with no pictures use less bandwidth, regardless of how many times they are viewed.

No! We decided to go with the free board! Unlimited page views - and a limited amount of bandwidth - and no dedicated server space. No fancy smilies, nothing hi-tech. Very simple, much like this place.

Edit: Except this place does have dedicated server space.

I like all types of posters and think it makes for a more interesting experience, but I get where you're coming from. And, even though I never agree with you, I don't want you to stfu.
