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...

My free web hosting account request for the second package was approved, which means that at the
time of the request (the topic itself) or the topic, however you want to name it, i had something
over 37 credits, positive and green of course, and when the admin actually approved the request, and
we all know that exactly when we see some changes on the request topic title, for instance, the
addiction of the words: "denied", "approved", et cetera. The point is that when the admin approved
today i had about 45 or 47 credits, and i created then the hosting account that only...

Hi, I was wondering if there is or isn't a certain TOS for trap17 free hosting packaged. For
example, can we host porn, or link to it. Can we host warez, or link to it. Things like that. Anyone
that could help me? Thanks in advance!...

I applied in July for hosting, here . I got it, everything was ok for the last 3 months. Now I
gathered more than 30 credits (thanks to bthaxor's giveaway partially) and I wanted to apply for
Hosting Upgrade. I went to the Requests Forums, and when I clicked on the link for the Request Form
here I got this error message: QUOTE The error returned was: Our records indicate that you
have already submitted an application. Please wait until that application is approved or denied
before submitting another one. Is it something I did wrong? I hope it is so, and...

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 got a interesting email today from marcy4u208@gmail.com QUOTE My dear,i am well pleased to
contact you after going through your profile at www.trap17.com on my search for genuine
frienship,please contact me on this idd (marcy4u208@gmail.com)so that i can send you my photo and
tell you about myself,Mercy I sent a reply saying I don't know this site /laugh.gif"
style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />, but it should be
interesting if I get a response about some spam related things, but I thought I let members know
about thi...

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...

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 ...

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....

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...

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?...

I wanted to add a small banner link thing for trap17.com on my website, and I knew there was a
thread about it, but I lost it, and I tried searching for it and didnt find it. Is there anyone who
knows that thread and can give me the link to it? Thanks!...

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...

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....

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)...

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 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...

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

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...
