Bloodymess13 Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 Well, the time has come once again for TGA to look for another host. Seems like this occurs way to often. Everytime i start looking for another host i dred it, because i am the only one out of all the members of TGA who foots the bill. This means boocoos of money. So i am asking you now, Help me decide, Would you be willing to help foot the bill of TGA by paying a couple bucks a year to be able to download? To keep things fair if we do start charging for people to download, then we would probably start offering some cash prize or some other sort of incentive for very good stunt videos (probably have a ranking system like we had before) The other option being no fees, but continuation of having a crappy server that isn't up all the time and possible deletion of files like has occured more then once on the server we are currently on. I hate to envoke fees, but then again i would love to have a server that is up all the time. You all know TGA and i hope that you trust we would not gouge you of your money. We are poor college students ourselfs and realize hard earned cash is hard to come by. Link to comment

TempEcho Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 no fee , i'd rahter have a crappy server , and if you put advertising ont he website i'm sure that will cover up some of the costs... Link to comment

Bloodymess13 Posted November 9, 2004 Author Share Posted November 9, 2004 I have ordered webhosting and we are currently waiting for everything to go through. This normally takes a day or two, although even when the site is up, it will take several days before we are fully functional again. Link to comment

If so then this is awesome news. Link to comment
Bloodymess13 Posted November 9, 2004 Author Share Posted November 9, 2004 the current situation looks like we will have some ads, and an optional donation system that will have some benefits. The benefits would include no ads, and no donation requests. The new site will include a login system with a running tally of how much you as a downloader has spent of TGA hosting costs, you will be asked to help support TGA by paying your share but you will not be required to donate. so another words, yes its free.

TempEcho Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 now , thats what I call great news. Make sure you disallow hotlinking. Or atleast direct linking to the files. And disallow .wmv , .mpg , .avi etc. only .rar and .zip and .tar.gz I will happyly click all your ad's Link to comment
Bloodymess13 Posted November 9, 2004 Author Share Posted November 9, 2004 Surprisingly enough TGA is actually already up, i am uploading all the stuff now so it will be a few more hours maybe even tmrw before uploading of files is reenabled. I kind of want to get the login system set up before i let people upload agin but we will see. The new login system is up if you want to get your username in the db Link to comment
