Title: Domain Name
Post by: Sunflorazumarill on March 11, 2012, 12:38:10 am

If this is in the wrong area, please move it to the right one. If this isn't allowed anywhere, let me know and I'll delete it.

I can tell we're nearing the time when the domain name for this site is going to expire once again. I just need to let everyone know this ahead of time and have us know if the site's going to go down soon.

Relax. Should Yuna and Kami let the site know that the domain name's expiring again, then it means that they can't (or won't) pay for it. And us not hearing about it here means we have nothing to be concerned with.

[14:24] <~Momo-nee> <Sharefog> Kaminos kinda gave up on the site so I'm running it solo for another year. The question is whether to renew it or not. :< <--- Time for another comrade

[14:25] <~Momo-nee> how much is the hosting?

Doesn't make sense for yunacchi to pay them server bills then if he wants to dump the place.

Read the full sentence again. Probably just wording on my part (knew I was gonna get eaten again).

Anyway, yeah. Seems we're good for another year.

Have we tried a donation drive? If the members can take out perhaps half of the burden, it will be better i think.

Hosting would expire on March 16 2012 if I don't pay the bills. I have, and the thing will still be running until March 16 2013 at least (domain name itself expires in 2014).

In any case I have no intention of letting the thing go at the time. We're a very low-traffic site which runs for 5 EUR a month and doesn't exactly need a lot of maintenance. Beats having a MMORPG subscription.

Yeah low-traffic forum sites are the best for a lazy sysadmin, I'm paying 40 euro a month for a vps that I mainly use for ZNC and hosting a dutch forum. I'm paying way too much but I upgraded it so it could run a minecraft server and a danbooru-board.
