YES!!! posted by Bashful on November 05, 1959 at 11:27:36:$500 for 1GB/month of bandwidth is robbery. www.best.com gives you 400MB/day bandwidth, 100,000 hits/day, 75MB disk space, and 2000 CPU seconds of CGI per day for $150 a month. That's nearly 25X the bandwidth for a third the price.
200MB/day bandwidth, 50,000 hits/day, 25MB disk space, and 1000 CPU seconds/day of CGI is only $30/month. That's about 6X the bandwidth for 1/16th the price.

The Poozle mailserver list failed.

This has been tried before, with the Poozle listserver. Nobody used it, for a variety of reasons.
There have been days on this message board that traffic was over 200 messages. Do you want over 200 messages coming into your e-mail account?
There are many other reasons why a listserver won't work here, too many to list.
Be seeing you.
Bashful

Mailservers aren't threaded
Posted by Doc on November 05, 1997 at 08:48:10:In Reply to: Solution is Easy posted by old_hippy on November 05, 1997 at 08:20:04:OH,
Mail server lists are not threaded. You can't hang a reply onto a post, and then reply to the reply, etc.

Some questions
Posted by John on November 05, 1997 at 22:27:41: In Reply to: A serious problem all should be aware of posted by Georgia Powers on November 04, 1997 at 23:44:10: To help narrow the field of potential service providers, could you answer a few questions?
I assume you're paying $50/month right now (taken from dimensional's price list). How much are you willing to spend?
How much disk space do you need?
Is the bandwidth problem just due to the message board, or are the field reports and FAQ also major contributors?
Is usage much higher on some days than on others? (this is an issue with ISP's that price bandwidth on a per-day basis rather than per-month).

No Problem at all Big Willy

2) Who are you to make such callous statements?
3) It is your kind that at the very least, becomes part of the problem and not the solution.
4) Quit wasting valuable bandwith space with your mindless, childlike, invectives.
Very truly yours,

You seem overly anxious to slam her at ever opportunity. It's getting to the point that your becoming the pitful laughing stock of the group. We understand that you don't like her but frankly, your in the wrong place to be constantly carrying on this vendetta.

To GB & Bashful:::on bandwidth
Posted by Omerta on November 05, 1997 at 07:32:34: The way I see it, hopping from one ISP to another will only make the problem follow you. We, and I mean WE have to take steps to deal with it now. If you don't want to bring up $$, I will. 1) Banners, generate some advertising dollars. 2) charge a monthly fee. we already said we would pay it. membership would keep the site up.
It would be worthwhile for any hardcore, pussy addicted CWM to be part of this community. It would also be smart business for the ladies to stay on board too. One party with a CWM would offset the cost of membership. And we get so much out of talking with each other and the ladies.
Thats my opinion, now we need to make a decision.
Later,
O.

Omerta is right.
Even with a cheaper provider, the increasing popularity of the board would bring us back to the same problem eventually. Relocating would only delay the problem,
I would have no objection paying a monthly fee.
This would solve the need to search for another ISP.

AT the current rate that Dimensional is charging and the popularity of the site will eventually lead to even bigger problems.....not to mention the fact that the charges would continually keep rising....we do need another ISP and that fact cannot be changed. I am short on time at the moment so I can't go into all the details but will outline some points this evening.
