Attention all forum members, please read. Problem solved, but still important! Reply #31 – October 15, 2014, 07:53:28 PM Hey guys, thanks for all the offers and support. I don't have much time right now - I had to work late, and am barely even awake right now. ed winter tire season makes it crazy at work. I'll answer a few posts here for now:Quote from: V8Demon;439051I have zero issue donating. How hard would it be to migrate to a different server? That price seems high. My site was about 100 a year....We were hosted on a cheaper site before, and ended up having the forum shut down because even though we were well under the advertised storage space and bandwidth, apparently our forum was hogging server resources. That host (GoDaddy) wanted us to move to a dedicated server, which at the time was thousands of dollars a year. Our current host specializes in forum hosting, so resource hogging isn't an issue, though price certainly is.Quote from: jrad235;439059I'm up to donate whatever is needed(Again) but the price they are charging does seem high, for us to go through that cash in 4 Years? http://www.foxtbirdcougarforums.com/showthread.php?29824-If-you-can-read-this-I-thank-you Let me know where you need it sent to and once we are out of the red we can get going on migrating to a different host.I too was surprised that we already blew through the paid period, but I guess at nearly $500 for two years, plus the vBulletin software, it adds up. The biggest problem right now is time. I wish they would have at least given us 30 days notice, but they instead gave us 14 days. I wouldn't be surprised if they did that on purpose, to prevent "shopping around".Quote from: Aerocoupe;439074Get er dun! Ha ha ha!!! Had not seen Tom post yet so I figured I would chime in for him. I think the funds will not be a problem by any means but I do have one other thought, why are we only paying for two years? Can we get any kind of a deal for say five years or is that a no no in the tech world? Only draw back I could see is if the company that is hosting the site just disappeared.DarrenWhen we first moved to this host I made a special deal for extended time. They only offered one year at a time and were reluctant to go longer. I haven't had the chance to shop around other hosts, but at $500 for two years I'm kind of reluctant to go longer myself right now.I was also caught off guard because just a couple of weeks ago I received an invoice from URLJet saying everything was paid up (I got one of these invoices a year for the past few years, always showing paid): Then yesterday I got this one, showing not paid: Quote Selected

Attention all forum members, please read. Problem solved, but still important! Reply #39 – October 15, 2014, 10:37:03 PM I don't know if it helps explain at all, but there are two different charges, one for your domain name, the other for the hosting space. I have about a dozen domain names, and you pay for quality, liked urljet. Sucks that this is last minute, tho.I'm still game to donate. Quote Selected

Attention all forum members, please read. Problem solved, but still important! Reply #42 – October 15, 2014, 11:00:11 PM Where do I donate. There is way to much good information on this fourm to let it go. Plus this is one of if not the best fourm I have ever been a member of. So many people willing to help each other without any bashing when simple questions are asked. Again where do I donate? Quote Selected
Attention all forum members, please read. Problem solved, but still important! Reply #43 – October 15, 2014, 11:19:35 PM With 211 "ACTIVE" members and figuring only 100 of us donating $5 bucks, this is a no brainer...$500 bucks easy. Now, I'm guessing most guys would gladly throw in $20 which makes it real easy in that you only need 25 guys.So lets get going on setting up a means of donating. Mark Quote Selected
