That is true that it does not need to cost a lot or anything at all. However if you want a forum to succeed you need to play the game. This means you do need to put money in, and a lot of it at that. You need a quality VPS, DDoS protection, additional I.P addresses, back-up storage areas. Keep in mind that's monthly, we've not even covered additional expenses for themes, addons, graphics, marketing, advertising etc. Sorry buddy but to run a forum correctly you need to have money at hand and ready to spend.Sqweerl said:hosting forums doesnt need to cost much or not cost at all.
And if their paying with their own money then their choice not mine.

Correct, you canrequirehosting forums doesnt need to cost much or not cost at all.
We can make the same argument that if you paid with your own money for a usergroup, then that's your choice, and since it was made on Night Forums and not our forums, then this is your choice and not up to us to honour, but we are trying to be polite and help people out here, so please respect that.And if their paying with their own money then their choice not mine.
Night Forumsnotattemptedto the best of our ability." (Which might I add, is something I agree with. It is not your responsibility to refund for a group purchased for a merger, it would be the previous owners' - which is what I meant when I said if the group was not available I would like the refund, however I forgot to specify from the aforementioned ex-owners of NF.)katos said:-snip-
