btw fquist, does the board cost you anything (as the jmmb obviously did for their admins)?

except a lot of sweat and effort of course :-)))



and a second thought: maybe somewhen in the future we could finance an own domain like "jazz2online.com" (unfortunately someone already registered it. do you know who?). i would be willing to pay for it (a small part of course. others must be in it).

the nagcentral.com address is very hard to memorize (for newbies for example) and makes it hard to advertise.

Fquist registered it =)



But Communitech (or whatever it's called) doesn't allow linking thru. Wasn't it that?

Well.. afaik, It's not just communitech. I don't think any domain can really be set up to go to a subdomain.. (Unless at jazz2online.com there is a single page which redirects you here, which is just ugly and messy :/)

Yes. I have registered jazz2online.com, but found out later that communitech did not allow it to be directed to a subdomain.



Currently, we are on onag's space. We'd like to stop bothering him and purchase our own domain. We were kind of talking about that on the old JMMB already. We have several admins wanting to donate money already.

well, okay. its just you know...im kinda afraid of that day you come here and say: "sorry. we dont have the money anymore. tomorrow everything will close. read the bible."



i guess you know what im talking about :-)

Rofl..



Well, onag has all the right to close this down. But we won't be satisfied and we will move somewhere else then.



I'll start a money topic in the admins forum again.

I'd be glad to help pay for any domain that's going on. Though registration is cheap now--$35 at cheapest I've seen.

$15 at dotster. Got the tip from Fquist a while ago. =)



I've seen it at 12,95

We also need hosting you know..

Yeah, but I'm sure some don't support boards. Or am I wrong?

i guess the domain itself isnt the problem. but i'd also be ready to pay for *the server*. afaik, it has to allow the php stuff and, MOST iMPORTANT, needs TONS of webspace (up to 500 mb i guess). this board and esspecially the download section eats loads of space, doesnt it, fquist?

not to forget the j2o messaging system and all the text (comments, articles).

If anything happens to Nagcentral, LC's still got room for a board and such. I set up numerous boards there, nobody complained. Still, I'd need to gain Jeh's attn to make him create a separate login and pass...gah.



Oh well, I'm off to die and such...tests tomorrow.

would be a pain to convert everything to .phtml and addslashes, but if we grow out of nagcentral, that would be fine..(we will grow out of nagcentral if we keep growing like this)

Quist, is that host that also host the cinemenium site not a good option?



You suggested it some time ago to me [img]http://jazz2.nagcentral.com/forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

hostrocket's great..

I'd prefer paying an own (good and quality) host for Jazz2Online. I have the feeling its not very good to be dependent on someone else's server.

It is..

When I look in the list of futeres I see good things.. the cinemenium site who is hosting here is loading very fast for me.



http://hostrocket.com/v1/hosting_plans.html

Cinemenium is not and never was hosted there.. Cinemenium's host sucked. I doubt I ever suggested it to you.. I think you mean another site..

Hmm, I'am almost sure you said cinemenium. And did that host sux?! It was one of the fastest site I ever saw. So many pics where loaded imidiatly without delay.. The speed was realy good for me..

That's because they have moved recently..

What do you call recently? I'am also talking about the first time you showed it to me.. I have never saw it slow..

It turned slow after a while, and was down for days.

Hmm.. strange.. i think I missed that period then [img]http://jazz2.nagcentral.com/forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]



But never mind, that hostrocket isnt very bad I guess [img]http://jazz2.nagcentral.com/forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]
