We survived, and survived well. In fact, were out of debt and looking at paying a few YEARS in advence or a server upgrade. This is really an awesome community.

Good news! I'm not really sure who runs this place but webspace needs money alright (but thousands?).

Macbeth · Oct 30, 2003

yeah it is alot, perhaps too much, but the part that matters is that when ENWorld needs to get something done, we do it, all of us, together.
Also, a general update for everybody, you can stop including class, race, etc info in the subject part of the post. If you could still thourgh in your name, that would be great, but i think I've got used to who's who. Some of you have already started doing this, and thats not a problem, I've gotten used to everybody, so I don't need the extra help of the subject line.

Actually I really like the whole name and stuff in the subject, I have implemented it in all my other games. I guess it helps me so much cause of the number of games that I am in

If you are not opposed to it I will still stick it on my posts.

If you WANT to, then by all means, go ahead. i just know that sometimes adding all that info to the subject can be a little too much work for a short post.

I was wondering why Eric didn't just ask the community - I guess he was a little proud. But yeah, with thousands of geeks, you're going to get the cash to pay, come on.

Thousands is about right - he was 1600 in arreas, and it's 400 bucks a month for the server and the dedicated pipe - think about how much traffic ENWorld must see every month...

The thing that shocked me was that hes' been paying it on his own all this time - I always assumed there wer at least a few people....

$400/month! That is wayy too much for a free site!

Yikes. That explains it.

I guess there's no money coming in from the publishing side? That's too bad.

BTW the "name in the titles" system works great for me to remember who is who/what
