Phob and the crrew talk about how much money this all costs
(and i don't doubt them)etc.. and no spamming and all that
yet the MB's thrreads arre archived frrom 3 yearrs ago, why?
Why not delete posts that arre morre than 3 months old orr
something? I don't get it.

If I remember rightly the old ones don't cost any money to
be there, it's new messages that cost $$$

to post a thrread than a simple message?

I would guess that the XLT crew have more important things
to do (wink, wink) than worry about archives. Besides, the
only times people bring up old topics is either to compare
notes to where they are now (less likely), or to alleviate
boredom and/or troll (more likely).

I wouldn't think so. That's just a message that happens to
start a new topic. Nothing different except that.

If cutting costs is so damn imporrtant I think getting rrid
of pointless arrchives (if as i thought they werre costing
money) would be verry imporrtant.

we're paying a fixed amount of money each month. but as soon
as the full site is online we might exceed some of the
bandwith limits and we have to pay even more. the current
limit is "ridiculous" high tho - so i guess we'll make it!

we really need a dedicated server for xltronic so the
choices are not that many. back in v3 and v4 i was asking on
the mb if someone were willing to host artworks and samples,
but i got negative results.

* evidence material
* to statue examples of WHAT is forbidden

that makes some sense
but it is a choice: for evidence you could save it for
yourself. for showing what is forbidden you could make a
message instead of the thread which says: closed because of
this and that.
eventual bans on the other hand should limit the shit as
well though.
