awesomegamer Posted April 6, 2005 Posted April 6, 2005 yeah when i got some extra cash ill get my friend to use his pappal and send him some. more uptime would be nice but i understand its not always like that so im happy as is.
Ashoat Posted April 6, 2005 Posted April 6, 2005 Yah, I'm working on the conversion of money into points thing, but i gotta get my own bank account first (hopefully this saturday).
awesomegamer Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 (edited) [EDIT] i read something wrong and i realize my post was irrelevant due to my misunderstanding. please dis regard this post and deduct my points (but post when you do so no other mods do) [/EDIT] [EDIT 2] lol, please dis regard my above edit I have restated with correct info well you seem to already have this if you just look... you said a free domain will be 6000 points right? now a regular domain name costs about 8 dollers, no ads, no features, just simple dns and stuff. so if we make the ratio of 6000 : 800 (cents) we get 750 points = 100 cents so i think thats a good way to have it set up.

lappy512 Posted April 7, 2005 Author Posted April 7, 2005 one problem: hosting is usually $2-7 a month, right? at 250 points, that equals to $0.33, so that isn't fair. the points are not porportionate.
GameClaw_268 Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 thats too much money, if people want to buy, they should have to do it the hard way.
eTronicGaming Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 this is actually (i think) the first host to give out free hosting as a plan (in a domain name that is), so what you'll are doing will get you alot of more members and alot of active posters for this new and never-been-promoted feature! So I say keep this going, and you'll might become the #1 free host! That'd be awesome! -eTronic Gaming
GameClaw_268 Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 the free domains is new, but everything else has been done before.
lappy512 Posted April 7, 2005 Author Posted April 7, 2005 oh yeah reminds me: i need a quarter, helionet didn't have 99.9% uptime. paypal my MSN messenger account.
lappy512 Posted April 9, 2005 Author Posted April 9, 2005 BUMP ouch, another downtime. it seems like there's a planned downtime at the start of each month for 1 day...
awesomegamer Posted April 9, 2005 Posted April 9, 2005 why should he pay you? he doesnt owe you anything! this is a free service and if you didnt get anything then surely you didnt lose anything... perhaps time, but time is money and this server is money, so he cant pay you for the server problem and you as a side effect of you being upset. (worded oddly, i know)
HerLoss Posted April 9, 2005 Posted April 9, 2005 Must I once again direct traffic to this beautifully written article? http://s3.invisionfree.com/The_Aftermath/i...p?showtopic=158

(worded oddly, i know) sorry, but at the start of the hosting, it said that he would pay $.25 to anyone who had less than 99.9% uptime. he obviously changed it now,
Ashoat Posted April 11, 2005 Posted April 11, 2005 Yup, i did change it a while ago. Realized that isn't really possible...
awesomegamer Posted April 11, 2005 Posted April 11, 2005 yea, that would be alot of money, maybe a smaller yet still free extra 5mb space and 50 mb b/w i dont "demand" it but it would be nice if you want
