Heliohost is a non-profit corporation that doesn't charge for hosting or require you to post to obtain or continue running a hosting account. Unless you are referring to this which is completely optional. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was not what I was referring to, the second Testimonial near the bottom of the page here: https://heliohost.org/ is what has one reference to what I'm referring to. @wolstech, is one still able to attempt this? Would I be able to do this in Ookma's post above? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here are one of the testimonials I am referring to that lead me to believe that HH/HN was originally one of those networks that would give hosting space if you met the requirements. One of those requirements was forum posts. Â Although I'm reading that wrong as well & the original reference that led me to believe what I believe is from this page: https://wiki.helionet.org/hosting/helionet.

Interesting to see that. Anyone know why this feature was discontinued? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolstech Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 We were a post to host service back when we first started in the middle 00s. There used to be a point system. I don't really know the details though, it went away before I really started, and I've been here since 2012 (technically 2009 if you include my first account that I abandoned after a few months). I have no idea which of the testimonials you're talking about, because those are random and change each time you reload the page. I know there are some really old ones from when we first opened though still circulating in there... when I loaded, I saw one referencing Stevie...a server we haven't offered in years (Tommy was his replacement). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know that, since I only started few months ago, thanks for the history lesson. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
