[QUOTE="_CY_, post: 1445077, member: 7629"] thanks again for hosting this site!!!! it's easy to take things for granted... some (like me) need reminding it's not free to host... paypal will be sent shortly to help. if you are taking suggestions .... below are some of the things CandlePower Forums (129k members) has doing for years. 1. announce downtime for scheduled maintenance, etc, so folks don't get so uptight. 2. change settings on software to limit number of unique quarries against the database to XX per two minutes or what ever. 3. utilize a Google search box option to off load unique quarries against database. this will off load an enormous burden from your database. 4. provide a donation logo by username to ID folks that has sent paypal donations to keep site up and running (expires annually). folks need reminding in a nice way, site is free, but hosting is not. Charging for classifies would be a excellent way to validate someone's intentions, ID and raise funds to pay for hosting. Consider something simple like Knifeforums by charging a flat $25 per year. payable via paypal or credit card or USPS MO to limit handling. Don't know about anyone else... I'd be glad to pay $25 per year for the right to post an unlimited number of ads in the best classifies in Oklahoma for firearms. [/QUOTE]
