Well I was browsing Archive.org and figured what the heck... so I typed in Trap17 and WOW. Would you believe what a long way we have come with the main page and stuff. Also the quality, if I had seen the main page back in 2001 or 2002 before July 25... it looked bad and looked like a crappy hosting. But like anything else over time it gets better and we improve on our mistakes. And thats what made Trap17.com the place it is today. And what was with that red spider web and stuff?
If anybody has been here since the start, can you tell me if Archive.org is right and stuff. Well just thought I would share this little bit of information with everyone. Also can you explain that spider thingy and some of the other odd template stuff.
I knew about that service but never bothered to look about the site which I visit daily anyway, It looks good that a site is going on for such a long time and had something related to software and hardware in the starting days but now has turned into one of the best free hosting service on the internet.
Things certainly do change over the years. Very impressive. You can find anything on the net when you look hard enough. Even older boards like this one and others. I like looking at old stuff. And remember a few things back then.
So while doing some analysis of my website, I came across a website that has archived views of most websites. http://www.archive.org is the address.
While my website, Handy PHP, isn't old enough to be included, I decided to take a look at AstaHost.com and see what was going on before I found it and it hadn't really changed that much.
So I took a look at Trap17.com since it was older than AstaHost. Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!! Turns out that Trap17 is even older than I thought!
I guess OpaQue or some previous domain owner used the domain for something else for a short time 3 years before the free web hosting website was started!
Wow, the 2001 snapshot is a long way from today's community & free hosting site. The 2001 snapshot is pretty much the standard of personal sites those days, and I'm guessing it was used as a site for linking to other sites prior to the hosting service residing at this address today.
The 2004 site aint bad, which would be up to the standards of some of the normal blogs found on many sites, but again depending on the host/CMS of the blog, those blogs may be slightly better than the 2004 layout.
Trap17 has indeed gone a long way for the better! Keep it up, and it would be interesting to look back at the current format today in about 5- 10 years.
You've gotta remember that 2001 version, was "cool" back then lol. It was standard for most personal sites. Though i'd still rather have that than the myspace culture we have at the moment to be honest!
After many weeks of ready, searching, googling, asking questions, coding minor debugging and some
other stuff I have set up my first version of a trap17 portal application. Sad to say though that
this sucker is loaded with errors and as has man browser related errors as well, but most liking
stemming from the original error that I am at. Of course, the funny thing is that it works
perfectly on my computer with obvious reasons since it is being locally tested, however I wanted
this to be a desktop application and that way trap17 member would be able to have a trap17 po....

AAAh 4 years, I was in the deserts of Iraq when I was looking for free php hosting. Heck I even
remembered the website that I found trap17 on, www.free-webhosts.com. It was a month before I would
leave Iraq, which I would start making my un-quality like posts here on trap. Back when the old
system was in place when you post count mattered. Jump up to January of 2005 when I was ready to
get out of active service that I posted a few more time. Of course, it was until April of 2005
that I would begin my campaign of spamming, which included two runs as moderator which....

Hi, I have noticed a bit of a problem with the forums here on Trap17. I don't know if this is a
problem with the Trap17 implementation, or with Invision Power Board in general, or with a mod that
is running on the forums here, and I'm sure that someone smarter than me can isolate the source
of the problem. What I have noticed firstly is that the link that is generated in the top right
corner of a post within a thread, the link to that particular post (I'll call that the linkback
link), sometimes links to the post itself, but often just links to the thread. T....

According to this article 393 ARPANET employees in 1978 received the very first SPAM email from
DEC. Since then we've all grown to know and love SPAM in all of its flavors. I say we should

Zymic is a fairly decent host with a good amount of bandwith and storage available and is ad-free.
It has a simple cPanel and does not really offer a lot of advanced features, but you do have PHP and
MySQL with 5 MySQL Databases and Accounts available. They only allow one FTP username though, but
all of your hosting accounts are linked to your Zymic account. They have PHP Safe Mode on though, so
you might have some limited PHP features. I do not know about support because I have not really
suffered much downtime and haven't needed it. You are able to have unlimited h....

110mb A big name in the hosting world today, indeed. I remember back in the days, 110mb offered
LOTS of amazing features, despite the fact they couldn't keep them. I talked to support, they
were about 2 - 3 people controlling it all. It was nice ! Don't get me wrong, anyway. On
to my POINT. We all (or some of us) remember 110mb as the best host possible! (Sorry, even
