Hello everyone.
I'm typing this up for Scott and the other admins, because I can probably explain it better.
I'm sure you've noticed the problems that are going on with the board. Crashing, slowness, etc. and they moved the site to a new server which was short-lived due to something extremely silly, blah blah blah.
I have come up with a solution to this problem.
I am going to purchase a server, and rental space in a high-speed internet service provider's office. My friend building the server tells me that it will run your board without a problem (not even close to touching the true capacity). I am paying for the server ($500 out-of-my-pocket) and I will run my site on it as well as Puritanboard. The server will only be used to host my site, and yours (for the time being). I am asking $40/month as a fee for hosting your site. Scott is paying $30/month now, and the board keeps crashing, and Rosehosting is slightly un-helpful is rectifying the problem.
So, long and short of it is, to keep your site running smoothly without problems, crashing, loss of data, etc. it is going to cost $40/month. Scott and the others do not have $40/month on their own, so they need YOUR help.
This board has 668 members. If a third of you donate $2, it will MORE than cover an entire year of hosting from me.
Please see Scott Bushey for details on how to donate to the "hosting fund".
If you have questions about this, you can u2u me.
