Many members ask about the matter of hosting credits. Trap17 staff have explained hosting credits
clearly on the site, but if you're not paying attention, have any questions, or need more, here
are some points that will answer your questions. Due to a few user comments, I have had to add a
few more points, and edited some previous points to be a bit more clearer. This is in addition to
the additions mods have made to the posts, which I greatly thank you for. 1. READ THE FORUMS BEFORE
YOU POST A CREDIT QUESTION!!! How many times have the Admins of Trap17...

Hi. Last night I had HOSTING CREDITS : 29.67 DAYS credits. Now I have HOSTING CREDITS : 7.06 DAYS.
How on earth did they get reduced that quickly? I am so confused. Any help please?...

I was wondering if Trap17 has a referral program. I see that they ask you put a banner on your site
for them, but is their any personal gain? I know this community is awesome and so is Trap17. I was
just thinking it'd be nice to get referral points as well....

A minute ago, I noticed my site nor my email wer working. So, I decided to come here and check my
amount of credit, as I knew I was getting low. But who can understand my astonishment when I noticed
that I was in a negative state of credit, at -4.15? What happens on this site then? Do they just
eat your credit as they see fit or what? As I said before, I knew I was getting low, and that is why
I came and checked, but yesterday I still had credit worth 1.65 points, today I find myself at
-4.15. So, you can imagine that has really left me wondering how i could have eaten...

Hi, im sure im being stupid and missing something obvious. But i cant get my site to work /sad.gif"
style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> The original index.html page
says to put pages in "public_html" But when i do that, and try to access the page, i see the
original index.html file. any suggestions, sorry, cant really be more specific, i dont really
understand whats going on! :S...

Well, a few days ago I terminated my hosting using the Credit System 2.0, but it still has me in the
group on the forums, which is making my credits go down for nothing. I need this fixed please....

First off, let me say that I have spent considerable effort and time going through the forums
seeking solutions for this problem. I have even gone as far as to seek help from the Xisto Live
support team (they suggested I wait 2 hours and then get back to them. Well I did that, and there
has been no change, and live support is now down). I've also tried changing permissions on both
files and folders via Cpanel, but to no avail. I still end up with the same error: QUOTE
Forbidden You don't have permission to access /index.php on this server. Additionally, a 4...

Hello, First of all, thanks for accepting my request for hosting. I do, however, have some
questions about it: When I first checked out trap17's website, I noticed you provide shell
access... Is this really true? If it is, would I be able to run, for example, an irc bot with the
account? Another thing... Your web server does not gzip content. This causes more traffic to be
generated, etc etc... Is there any chance to activate this feature? The question regarding credits
is a fairly simple one. I'd just like to know how you assure posting quality.. I mean, the c...

I am looking at different solutions for paid hosting and I know that that trap17 has some connection
with a paid hosting company and I would like more info about it because I like the way this place is
run and it has been a good place to have my website. So what is the site for the paid hosting?...

Well thanks to BuffaloHELP now my problem is solved and I can login to my cPanel anytime I want to
and I already started building my website and everything is going smoothly so far /smile.gif"
style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> but there's still one
simple problem that needs to be solved and it has something to do with my credits because when
BuffaloHELP re-activated my account and changed my status from HOSTED back to MEMBERS and then I
created my hosting account all over again with the same login information I requested when I f...

Dear hosted members, We have noticed that many members are knowingly or unknowingly breaking some
basic rules of posting and hosting at T17. This has resulted in a lot of spam posts which in turn
lead to more unnecessary work for moderators and admins, 'defacement' of the foums and
sometimes even banning of the concerned member. The rules are there and you are also there. But
have you read them? Usually, if you have read the rules and understood them, it is not expected
that you break them voluntarily. This however can be expected of some unscrupulous eleme...

I would like to close my hosting account because I am moving to a new paid host but I am unsure how
to close the account so that if I need to in the future I can open it without having negative
credits. (I realize that all my info from my site will be wiped and if I reopen it will be from
scratch and Ill probably need to get the 30 creds again and what not)...

I currently don't have the time to keep up with this forum and a website in addition to my job.
So, how would I delte my hosting account? I don't want to delete my trap17 forum account, I
like the discussions here, and I may want to try a website gain someday, but right now I don't
have the time. Is it possible to keep my forum account but have my hosting account deleted? Thanks
for any and all info!!! Byron Arnold...

I am in the negative points as we speak here just to state that. I have had a couple times when I
have went negative because of certain reasons but I have been way to busy lately to do anything but
my personal life. I can't afford to come check here and post as often as I used to. So my
question then would be is there any way I can get my account changed to free hosting with the text
ad? I would really like to not have to make a whole new account and lose all of the stuff from my
hosting now and also my forum account. If it is needed that I post up enough to get pos...

http://www.computerkindness.org is not loading. I checked it with,
http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ and it tells me, the site is down. Can someone provide me more

I've read through the credit FAQs and the pinned topic but didn't see this answered. Please
excuse the Newby question, but I am a newby. I posted a tutorial yesterday but didn't see any
change in my credits. Is there a way or place to see what credit you get for posts?...

I was just wondering if something changed in the way that the hosting credits work here... because
I'm pretty sure that I had enough credits to last a few more days, cause I built up a bunch the
last time I was here... but since I noticed that I haven't gotten many hits today, I checked my
site to see if it was still up and running. That tends to be how I see if I need to get back over
here and posting. Well, I can understand if I ran out of points, cause it certainly wouldn't be
the first time... but what's getting me is that my site has been down less ...

Hey, can I buy for credits free domain like .com .net etc?? Or just domain redirect? If i put topic

same problem. then, the cpanel stopped working, followed promptly by the ftp. when i try to access
the cpanel now, i get the following message: QUOTE Sorry for the inconvenience! The

-8 credits now. Can you reset them to zero please. Have lovely holidays...

Good day! I have some questions about my hosting account. I have been idle for quite some time
and unfortunately, I wasn't able to gather enough credits so my hosting got suspended (after my
credits reached negative). Last weekend I gathered enough (around 10 credits) so my website could be
reactivated again. I was told by my friend yesterday that my site was now accessible however, I
realized that it was only my main page that has been activated, the subdomains were not. Whenever I
try to access it, a trap suspended page keeps on appearing. Can anyone please exp...

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? /dry.gif"

I'm always Recently i;ve been letting my credits drop below 1 day. I was wondering, what do you
guys do to avoid not dropping pas the 0 days mark? I know, we all post. But do you post only on
certain days? Once a day? What, what do you do to prevent your account being suspended....
