Use surpasshosting.com. Their servers never go down (the server that is hosting my site is never down) and its CHEAP. 40 dollars a YEAR (yep) for 10gigs of bandwidth and 300mb of memory.
Definately not a rip-off.

Ah, well, I can wait. I've been reading the thread about the server problems (which is locked) and there was a huge argument about professionalism and whatever. Soo, the main reason on why swoo.net is down is due to their server being late on the payment, thus.. This. =| Also, I would think the site needs more than 300 MBs, considering all the pixel art, posts, etc.

uh i've had a temp forum that looks almost identical to pixelations for about a month, I turn it on whenever the site goes down, alot of the regulars frequent there, but because of the lack of support from the powers that be, they lead you here instead.

.. hrm.. not to be rude or anything. but isn't your forum pretty much ripping off Pixelation?.. I mean you pretty much took the banner, icon, colors and concept.. did you even ask if you could use them?
I dunno, maybe I'm over-reacting.. anyways, I'll stick with the original Pixelation, and I don't see the point creating a dozen different temporary boards also.

Quick update..
I finally got the new server up and running. If all goes well, pixelation will be up and waiting for us by Monday, when the domain name has a chance to propogate over.
The only thing that's keeping us from putting it back up right now is that the server I'm moving from has yet to get back to me with the SQL database (or a way to download it myself), so I have to hold out until they get to it, as annoying as that is.
If anything goes wrong, I'll let you all know.

I am sorry if anyone would feel offended by this but I daresay it is pretty fair. Well, why don't you mods even comment on all this stuff people are writing here? PLus why do you redirect to this forum while you've agreed that Dogmeat would provide us with better one. The only thing that makes me believe that FE at least cares about Dogmeat's clone is the fact that he posted sth. there recently. 2 temps make a real mess. And ignorin a better one seems kinda rude to me. Yeah, you can do whatever you please, still I think it is fair to state my opinion.

FE, if you have telnet access to your current host I know you can log on and export databases straight out of SQL, hell, you might even be able to do it straight out of myphpadmin or whatever that php-sql interface is called. As for the straight command to do it, i forget. But im sure mysql.com being right at your disposal wouldnt pose that much of a problem

I'll stick with the original Pixelation, and I don't see the point creating a dozen different temporary boards also. Yeh 2 actual forums, but about 10-15 or more offers of setting up a clone/temp forum. Well, why don't you mods even comment on all this stuff people are writing here? PLus why do you redirect to this forum while you've agreed that Dogmeat would provide us with better one. The only thing that makes me believe that FE at least cares about Dogmeat's clone is the fact that he posted sth. there recently. Well Kon is a mod isn't he?? he mentioned dogmeats clone a few posts back. I think that FE is probably more concerned with getting the real pixelation up and running as opposed to spending time looking at the clones/temp forums, besides, it's not like he posts very often on the real pixelation anyway.
