I, the founder of trap17, declare that this is one of the most hilarious topics ever made. Members
please take your time to read this and do enjoy it. My special thanks to Buff and Velma. I
personally ditest trap17 because of it's clutter, it's impossibility to navigate, and the
fact that admins like buffalohelp haven't been banned yet, as he abuses his power to the point
of threatening free speech. Trap17 is way to orienated on its appeal, and not it's content,
which is what's really important. If you make something flashy but pointless, all your...

Some may remember a while back I created a dynamic image that would tell you your post count and
last active for trap. It had a bit of a run but then died off. It just wasn't very useful.
BUT NOW I am presenting the most epic trap17 image Ever. This one is SUPER customizable and already
works for ALL MEMBERS ! It is designed to be put in your sig so other members can see the
recent topics you have written. It is still in early early beta stage but soon it will have the
date posted along with some other cool features. So I'm sure you are all excited t...

Okay here is the problem. My site www.echo-of-thunder.trap17.com is not showing any graphics,
Background header logo nothing. Uploaded them all. now here is the kicker to this. it all shows just
like it it is supposed to show up on my old host What am I doing wrong here....

Hi, I thought I'd make this post because a lot of members of Trap17 link to each others website,
what I thought would be good is that anyone who wanted to become part of the "affiliates" group post
there web adress here, then we make a list of all the adresses and everyone who applied link to all
the sites who applied and then we get a big chain of linking members, when I say link I mean in the
footer or on a special links page, blogroll whatever so long as the links can be found somewhere
easily accessable on your site, the more places the better! EDIT: You ...

Are the trap17 host servers still the same? Right now my domain has its DNS set to ns1.trap17.com
and ns2.trap17.com, am I correct or did the server change also change the DNS?? Thank you

I am posting this here rather than in the 'Web design' topic as it seems to be something
which happens exclusively to my Trap 17 web site. When i have my web site open, which you can find
here , every so often (quite regular actually) a short and high pitched beep is sounded. At first I
thought it had something to do with my sound card or my PC, but recently I discovered it only
happens when I have my site open. It does not matter which page of the site I have open, or whether
the page has multimedia embedded in it, I get it regardless of the page I am on. Has...

brutalwarfare.trap17.com suspended due to abuse complaint. I am forced to suspend this site for the
invalid vBulletin license running on the website. Usually I never put up complaints like this, but
because I consider Trap17 as one family and everyone here as young webmasters who are eager to
learn. I want to alert everyone to not use any type of nullified or free scripts on your website.
There are millions of free alternatives available. If you are using a nullified version, I request
people to convert to paid license if your website is working for you. Else, you are...

I would like to point my .com at my forums on here but am unsure how to do it. BTW my site is

Well as I promised, I'm giving away all my award credits for winning the trap17 awards.
Actually these aren't all of them but I'm saving the rest for other giveaways. So anyway on
with the giveaway. I've been thinking about how exactly I should do this one. If I just made
one challenge and gave away 150 credits that would make one person very happy and the other members
very sad. So then I thought, why not have the first person to answer correctly win 100, second win
50, and third and fourth place winners win 25. Well this was a good idea, but still...

Trap17 is more navigatable and has a cooler cPanel than computinghost... This may be opinion, but
the HTML editor on computinghost is long gone. The cPanel is the newer version but as always newer
isn't always better. So what if they have a new cpanel (ensim did the same thing)…the fact is
they left old software on for years when much newer and more secure versions are ready. Hell, php6
is about to come out. So in two years plesk, cpanel and ensim will finally go to php6 when php 8 is
available. Just the inablilty to apply security patches alone is enough to nev...

Hello. I think I've heard about this somewhere or another on this site, but am not sure.

It seems I can't start a new thread. I started a thread named: Best Websites With the message:
QUOTE http://www.thefwa.com/ Brillant site, I've looked at alot of the winners and
i'm in amazment in how good they are. Best that i've seen is the Halo 3 Believe website,
very indepth and detailed. Check that site out for inspiration and that. Any suggestions?...

question about ipb seo on trap17 how did you manage to get ipb to convert all the links to
readable html links ?? for example http://www.trap17.com/forums/foo_foo_foo.html
rather than http://www.trap17.com/forums/index.php?act...w_post&f=86 what did you do to
get that and what kind of hack or mod did you install and what are you using to get that large site
map ?? thanks...

Well, here it is the close of my second year with Trap 17. Seems like only last month I was
lured over here from Asta Host by JLHaslip. Actually it was on 5th January 2006 and 2 days later I
got my hosting approved. I have really enjoyed my time on the forum, all the support I have
received from so many members, greeting new members as they join and introduce themselves, helping
out whenever I can (which is seldom in the tech department, since I am not extremely computer or
graphics literate, but I do my best), giving opinions on subjects I may have a little mo...

Ok so im getting working on my site.. its a myspace layout site.. so you know its going to have OVER
200 pages.. (myspace layouts) and i was wondering, before i start to place them all in.. if i
happened to transfer to the partner computer host, (just because im paranoid and im scared i will
run out of credits) will trap 17/compu host, transfer all my files for me? will i be keeping the
same tra17 url.. (i already purchased an url, but i dont want to go in if i transfer and change all
the urls, since im guessing the url i bought is only a redirect-aka u can access your ...

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"

As I said, I had to move my web site away from Trap17 temporarily because I had ran out of disk
space. Now, when my upgrade is finalised, I would like to ask for a little assistance. The provider
I will be moving my site from, back to Trap17 also uses Cpanel, and the admin let me know to do a
backup and that backup could be simply transferred via FTP to my new provider. The backup includes
all my files and MySQL data, in other words, the whole web site. It is in a .tar.gz format. How do I
get all this across? Do I 'unzip' the file and then transfer them bit by bi...

A few days ago I tried to log into cPanel on my site ( www.liamssite.trap17.com ) and it didnt work.

I have a registered domain name and I like to move it to my trap17 hosting account. If someone can
tell me how to find the dns for trap 17 I would apreciate the help. Thanks in advance...

Hey! I was just wondering if these were against the TOS: -Allowing an image upload service.
Would it be possible to allow the users on my site to upload images through an upload script?
-Allowing a donations page. The PHP software I am developing will be open-source and free. Is it
possible for me to add a "Donations" page to my site, to help us to make the software development an
easier process? -Google AdSense. Is AdSense banned on Trap17, or can I add my AdSense code to the
site? -IPB hosting. Is it against the TOS to host paid forum softwares? If I purchase one a...

I juz got my trap17 starter account when I found out about the alternative called qupis which seems
to provide the same features but only restricted with ONE LINE TEXT AD at bottom of page. I hope
someone can clarify this and if this is the case, then it will be just active participation in the
forum VS 1 line of text ad. So what are the real differences and advantages for users of trap17 over
those using the ad supported Qupis?...

I wanted to know if Trap17 has FFMPEG or if it is possible to get it installed on the server....
