LordOfTheBorg 1 Posted April 2, 2004 ok VBG, i would have just PMed you, but i thought maybe some other people would like to know, so im putting it on here; How much does this site cost? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeanway 0 Posted April 2, 2004 I've been wondering about that too. What all went into this site, just give us a general idea, no need for great detail? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Syperphobia 0 Posted April 2, 2004 I really didnt care, I really think that the value of the site is really in the opinions that we post, rather than the money that is placed within the site to make it run. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VaBeachGuy 12 Posted April 2, 2004 I'd have to go back and add everything up to give a complete total, but right now my best estimate is about $500 per year. That amount goes up the larger we get and the more traffic we have. When I upgrade again in a couple months it will add $300 to $400 to that figure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My offer to pitch in some money is still good if you'll let me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Star Trek Fan 0 Posted April 5, 2004 I would send you money, but I can't afford to give any money. When I get much more, I'll feel free to donate some... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VaBeachGuy 12 Posted April 5, 2004 Thanks for the offers everyone. At some point I may need to do that and if I do I'll add something to my signature to click for donations. My IPB board cost nothing. Keep in mind that for the month of March we had 5,547,710 hits and our transfer bandwidth was 34.8 Gigabytes. You won't find a host that will provide free service with that much traffic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
