hacking questions & a general question
 

- General Question

I as most other people here own a board, now it's a small hobby board with 300 members, but as it is now it's located on a free host and is :( slow :(, sometimes gives me internal errors and just not user-friendly....

I live in europe, and had a look at payed hosting solutions.... but ..damn that's all way to expensive... I can't afford 50? / month for example, it's a hobby for fun, I'm not running a business here.....

Anyway, does anyone here knows a good host that plz isn't to expensive... let's say 20/30? month maximum (and that's already a lot)

Also please make sure it's easy to pay, as I don't have any credit card or anything....

Tnx a lot


- 1st hack question

I like to use a hack like the one used here that lists the people in a certain irc channel, but I can't seem to find this hack ? is it available ?

Try this thread for your hack:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=40855

I've seen that one but as I said I use a crappy free host atm and I definatly don't have any available other servers or stuff....

Also, there are plenty of hosts out there who could easily host a 300+ members board for 20 Euros or less ;)

examples ? :)

<a href="http://www.hosteurope.de" target="_blank">www.hosteurope.de</a>
for example

looks good, dunno how to pay for it though, but the price looks good, but as with all the hosts it doesn't mention how fast it is, I don't know why, but not one host I've been to mentions it....
At best you get a "runs on fast servers" type of message...

Like that host the 14.90€/month solution, would that be fast enough for let's say 20/30 simultanious users ?

i now use the 7,60€/month solution, and don't have any problems with speed...

i've heard some others, which say the same, no speedproblems...

hmm you have me convinced, I'll take the 14.90 account but how to pay, I live in belgium...... how do you pay ?

i live in germany, so i pay with bank-transfering...

that's impossible for belgium ?

i don't know

if you can'T find it try to write an email to them...

I mailed them and got this dissapointing answer :

Hello,

you can only buy our webpacks if you have a german bank account.

sorry to hear that :(
i didn't know it is so....

Do you or anyone know a descent provider like this (I mean cmon most of the people here run a board...), price somewhere between 1 and 25€/month and located in europe who preferably allow bank-bank payments ?

I live in Belgium

noone knows a descent host for a vbb board, how on earth is that possible :'(

#1: it's called vB, not vBB
#2: I can't quite think of any European hosts for hosting a vBulletin, I only know American ones..
