It varies depending on the number of credits in excess of the minimum required for the Hosting Plan.If you are looking to get the Plan2 (30 credits) and have 32 in your account, it will reset to a lower value than if you had 300 credits. With 300 credits, you will likely have closer to the maximum of 4 after the account is approved and set-up.The number of credits AFTER account approval will be so... read more.

Hosting Credits After Going Negative

Forsaken
Hey, My account went negative in credits last night. I posted enough to get it up to about 2 credits, how many does an account require to become reactivated? I lgoged on today and its still suspended. I plan on posting a bit tonight, been working a lot lately,but thats beside the point.

Any reply would be greatly appreciated, Thanks

Hmm, the only way if you can lose credits is if a moderator or an admin deletes your post. I'm pretty sure it wasn't me who deleted it because I raise the user's warning level after deleting posts, and your warning level is at 0%. Try contacting Nils or OpaQue to see how you got in the negatives.

Your account will get unsuspended automatically if you have above 4 hosting credit days. smile.gif

I think he means that the only way you can lose so MANY credits, is if your posts get deleted.

Are hosting credits days,
How many credits you have? or
How many days your account can stay active?

So 1 hosting credit day is 1 credit.
After your hosted its easier too gain creds.


Thanks

What im missing, or what isnt fairly described on the homepage, is what happens after you sign-up and are hosted. How does it go forth. I can only make up from the forums that 1 credit each day is automatically substracted from your account. And that one has to retain 4 credits always to be sure that the account isnt suspended. Say that you dont have credits left after sign-up. This means that you have to make 4 posts before the next day, and then for every next day have to make 1 post to be sure that one retains the 4 credits at all times.

*You have to have POSITIVE credits to stay active
*You lose one credit per day
*You get one credit for 300 characters in your post (100 posts with 1 letter each will not even get you one credit)
*You don't lose credits before you get hosted. After you get hosted, you lose 1 credit per day

That's all the basics.

You need 4 hosting credits or more for your account to unsuspend itself.

You are correct for the most part on your post. You do lose one credit a day, and one must have 4 credits or more to keep his account. If you plan to apply for a free web hosting account, then I recommend you have about 14 credits or more (if you are applying for Package One) or 34 credits or more (if you are applying for Package Two). This will ensure that you have at least 4 hosting credits if your hosting application is accepted (14 - 10 = 4; 34 - 30 = 4). Also, it's not hard at all to keep your hosting account because the credit system is pretty lenient. I have around 333 hosting credits right now. smile.gif

I appreciate this simple and straight forward explanation of the credits system. I have read all of the site information and I was getting totally confused. Thank you so much for making this a bit more understandable to me. This is my first post, and I for one plan to build my credits up prior to requesting my hosting account, hopefully that will give me a nice sized buffer so I don't run into problems. smile.gif

This is very confusing for me. I've only just joined and Im totaly lost.

But thanks to the Mods and Members who posted here, I was reading through it and slowly started to understand what your talking about. LOL.

Is there any place I can go to get a tutorial or something? To further what I know about the site?

The number of credits AFTER account approval will be something between 1 and 4 according to everything I know...

Yes your account will get reset to 2 hosting credits once accepted. Of course once hosted it is recommend to build up to at least 10 hosting credits and that way it will give you plenty of time upload everything and setting up the website and then after that you will be either posting or updating your website while here at trap.


Only 2? I saw in one of the previous posts that the number was 4. (And on AstaHost it might have been 3. I don't remember.)

I think it actually resets to something nearer 2 (I'm not quite sure). But yes, regardless of how many credits you have you will always get reset to that amount. Even with 31 you will get reset to the default amount (somewhere around 2 or 4).

Umm, thanks. I think I'll build up a complete PHP layout of the pages before moving on to this webhost...

So right now I have about 31 credits. Does that mean that I only have 1 credit after registering, or does it always reset to 4?
