QUOTE(Plenoptic @ Dec 12 2007, 05:27 PM)  Thirty credits in an hours really isn't that bad. Some people takes a week or even longer to build up that many credits as they don't have as much time or they spend more time putting thought into a post. If you work at that rate you could have a domain name in about 8 hours of work which is really rather nice rather than having to put in credit card information on an actual site. Just look at it this way, 250 is better than 365 just curious, how long will it take for an average person to make 30 credits? just wondering as I have just started. I think it is a great opertunity for us to work for a prize. anyway. 250/280 is a little much but hopfully i can start. somthing else on my mind. if we apply for lets say packedge#1 for 10 credits, would ten credits be deducted from our accound for hosting?

To answer your questions as for an average hard to say really maybe 1-2 hours depending on how much you type because the longer your posts are the more credits you will get. So if you a fast type and you know what you want to say you maybe able to a few minutes off the time needed to make 30 credits. As for the the price of getting that free domain I just ask this would you rather pay for the domain in cash once a more or once a year or would you rather posts good quality stuff in the forums and renew that domain once a year with little to no effort and save yourself some cash? As for the deduction yes you will lose 10 credits however, just a warning that if you have more credits 10 or 30 you will lose those as well when you apply for hosting. So think about which hosting plan and get the right amount of credits you need that way you won't lose any earn credit past that, and just remember to make sure your posts are of quality and not one liner, spammish, or off topic. Of course I would recommend reading the Trap17 Read Me as that will explain everything you need to do before and after get hosted.

So do we get the domain only for a year? Or forever?

Wow, this is great...This actually means, that within a few weeks of quality postings, you can get yourself a free domain name. I love this scheme. And I'm gonna keep on posting as much as I can. The best thing is, the topics in the forum are pretyy interesting so it's not really hard work to earn 280 points.

can i just ask a couple of questions: 1) when you say that your files would be transferred for free, does that mean they will be chmodded the same as well? 2) would your mysql databases be transferred as well, under the same names? 3) when you say that .com domains are available, can i get a .com.au domain? 4) i would like haxor.com, however whois says it is already taken. i go to haxor.com, and there is nothing there. would i be able to choose it? 5) in relation to my previous question, i can see that on whois, haxor.com is taken until the 28th of august, next year. say that i am not able to register for such a domain now, and i register for a free domain under another name. when august 28th comes next year, will i be able to 'renew' my free domain via another 280 credits, and then get my website transferred from the current domain to haxor.com? if i can, then do 1) and 2) apply? thanks, and i reckon this is just another great trap17 initiative. this truly shows that trap17 is the best free web hosting. even some paid hosts still require you to have a subdomain.

2) would your mysql databases be transferred as well, under the same names? When you get a domain your files and databases do not actually move anywhere. The domain is applied to your hosting account, so there isn't any need to copy or move files around as far as I am aware. QUOTE(bthaxor @ Dec 27 2007, 09:25 AM) 3) when you say that .com domains are available, can i get a .com.au domain? A .com.au domain is a ccTLD - this means it is managed by a company based in Australia and usually only issued to people in Australia. Therefore Xisto wouldn't be able to register one. QUOTE(bthaxor @ Dec 27 2007, 09:25 AM) 4) i would like haxor.com, however whois says it is already taken. i go to haxor.com, and there is nothing there. would i be able to choose it? No. Even if the page is blank, that domain has still been paid for by someone and it is therefore theirs while they continue to pay for it. You could appeal to ICANN that the domain is not being used fairly - but that is an expensive and lengthy process that really isn't worth it. QUOTE(bthaxor @ Dec 27 2007, 09:25 AM) 5) in relation to my previous question, i can see that on whois, haxor.com is taken until the 28th of august, next year. say that i am not able to register for such a domain now, and i register for a free domain under another name. when august 28th comes next year, will i be able to 'renew' my free domain via another 280 credits, and then get my website transferred from the current domain to haxor.com? if i can, then do 1) and 2) apply? If you went for a different domain then that domain would be yours for a year. There is nothing to say that haxor.com would become free on 24/08/2008. The owner usually gets 3 months after that date to renew it, and they have every right to. Only if, after that time, they hadn't renewed it would you be able to get it. Also, you are only allowed one free domain and I'm not sure if you would be allowed to get rid of the first free domain before the year was up and then get another one. 1) and 2) aren't really relevant as, once again, the files never actually move - only the address that points to them changes.

thanks for clarifying that rvalkass, i think it would be worth it then. i'll just sign up to phaxor.com... but i would also like to know - say that this scenario were to happen: i sign up for free domain hosting,. under phaxor.com which is available, and then before my one year free hosting expired, i would like to move it to haxor.com (this is after the three-month renewal period and all that). would trap17 do that for me free?
