| | Imagine that trap17 can offer 17 megs of free hosting to any member registered to this forums. I mean, 17 megs of space shoudn't be too much fot this huge hosting company like trap17. You would only need to geather 100 credits on forums, with ultra quality posts and you can get your 17 megs of space for at least one year.
I think it's great idea, don't you?  |

Huh? You can get 500mg of free space for 30 credits and keep it by posting on a regular basis. Maybe you haven't read the Trap 17 Readme. This will explain how things work around here.

he's hosted himself so he knows how it works. i didn't understand the post either since trap offers 17 megs and then some. mayb he's talking about an option that if you reach 100 credits. you can select a cheaper hosting plan which will take care of hosting for a year. only thing i could think of in what he meant by his post since he's already hosted maybe he can explain further ***hint***hint***

Yeah I am a bit curious as to where this topic is going, and how would 17MB of hosting be useful because its not all that much. The only thing I can think of from this topics is that pop is just following the number 17 in the domain name, but I sense a bit of disgruntled member as well since I don't pop posting all that much in the forums. So hopefully an explanation about what this is about and enlighten us then we might make sense of this.

I think pop is tired of posting here and wants some free stuffs. Pop always remember "NOTHING COMES FREE, SOMEBODY HAS TO PAY FOR THAT". If TRAP17 is offering you ads-free hosting, then it is asking to make some quality posts here and nothing else. Theres a variety of topic here to choose from and post/discuss whatever you like. Eventhough you don't want to post, then there is an alternate option go for the free service offered by TRAP17, which asks you to show ads from Trap. And also they offer more than 17MB which you are demanding.

QUOTE(pop @ Dec 15 2007, 11:26 PM)  Imagine that trap17 can offer 17 megs of free hosting to any member registered to this forums. The key word here is "free hosting to any member" suggesting that any member who registers with Trap17 forum receives 17mbs of free hosting automatically. Playing on the name Trap17 with 17mb of hosting is clever. OpaQue always stresses that the quality is paramount than quantity. And I am concerned that sharing web server resources to anyone registering with the forum contrasting to members who are serious about Trap17 forum is not fair to hosting members. The second is how to limit the abuse and regulation to free web hostings. The biggest downfall of any free web hosting is spammers dragging the reputation down. This is one of reasons why Qupis went from automated instant free web hosting script to manually activated hosting service. It takes just one spammer to use one small free web hosting to do some heavy damage--by sending tens of thousands of spam emails in matter of minutes with just small script using some small web script. It's nice idea for now but it's going to be hard to regulate so that serious hosting members are not inconvenienced.

Aah that would explain the reason for the post and after reading buff's post and rereading everyone's else you could say we were somewhat thinking the same thing and that was why the heck would we want 17MB of hosting. Of course buff you missed a third point how much in terms of gigs on how many accounts you can produce as well, because you would need a good helping of hosting account so that at least anyone trying for one would get one. I made a calculation that you would need at least 2.0GB of space per 1000 or to break it down at least 1.7GB for the actual host and .3GB for software installation to get the accounts function. Now on that note although clever as it maybe to use the number as the space for your hosting account many hosting sites fail on that just because of the fact that you would want to sucker someone into getting the bigger plan that you would pay money for. Of course it would only be a matter of time before these free hosts that have 100MB hosting plans will close down because its not even space anymore and we require MORE!!! MOOOORE!!!

Clever idea on the 17mb... but really... your gonna run outta space. And because there would be SOO many accounts... and getting to 100 credits and not posting again... thats just not good. I like current setup

I figured out that if every account had 17mb, it would take up 632GB of space.

Trap17 is not free host and it should not be.It offers very good hosting plans only for posting.So i think this idea will make make this service different and it will not look like post&host (or how it was...?) service.From where trap17 will get budget to give you free hosting,here we have very much users and users which are one-liners and spammers which for few weeks get hosting.That is why free hostings are not good.They are not good for both,users and admins because admins can't get budget,users page is always down.Why don't buy hosting from from here instead from creating account on free hosting?Trap17 forum sometimes is down,but hosted sites on trap17 are always up.

if trap17 was a 17mb regular free host it just wouldn't be trap17, this is a bad idea. There are already other hosts like this called 100mb, 500mb and other things of the sort so why do what they're doing when we already have a great system and forum in place? the idea to play off the 17 is a good concept but overall it just doesn't really work for me, sorry to burst your bubble.
