Play nice...... :-B

Not to scare anyone, but we are at 21.15 gigs of bandwidth used for the month of January so far, and I think we are at (roughly) 160 megs of storage (not sure why the Buick site needs so much disk).

If this ISP I am using ever folds, I'm screwed (I negotiated decent rates with them)... :nerd:

As far as the Buick site not wanting to have advertising, I agree with them in principle, but it is almost imposible to keep a site floating without some sort of advertising revenues. The donations and out-of pocket payments just can't keep up with the growth (usually).

It does appear that they have some good news now (see the new post on there from the admin).

Just made a donation. Don't want to even take a chance that we ever face such an eventuality. I guess I never realized the cost of running something like this second home!!!

Can you say "Best of both Worlds"..... :-B

 

[mystang99]

if we want to keep on helping each other we all have to take the responsibility to help with the cost!
otherwise, we could end up just like them!

 

[B-Man]

Again, I want to get us to an advertising model (not too invasive, no pop-ups, etc), but I just need some vendors to step up. :smile:

I replied back to one vendor with some costs (which I thought were reasonable based on # of pageviews), but I haven't heard back. I hope I didn't scare 'em off. :wink:

I appreciate all your hard work, B-man. I'm sure there is a lot that you do that none of us are aware of. Now it's time for me to make another donation for the Bullittclub.

 

[Cochese]

I appreciate the hard work B-man! I made
a second donation a few days ago...hope
it helps. BTW, any job openings at the
Bullittclub? I am still laid off from Delta
and will be for a while...maybe a few years.
I AM serious about the job openings...I
just wish I had better computer skills.

 

[B-Man]

Well,

The pay here at BullittClub is about
- $5,000 (that's negative :wink a year if you count the time invested to keep things going.

I have to admit, it easy to get burned-out, but I take a step away, do something else for a day or so, and then always come back! :smile:

If I didn't enjoy doing it, I wouldn't! :nerd:

 

[Cochese]

WOW! No pay? What do you do for income, if
I may ask? You have to spend a large amount
of time at Bullittclub. How do have time to
do anything else? WOW!

Collin

 

[B-Man]

I have a day job.

And if I didn't, bullittclub wouldn't be here, because it doesn't even pay its own bills, let alone mine! :lol:

Its okay, its for love, not for money. :nerd:

Hey B-Man, I own two web firms. 21.5 Gig transfer a month is a fair amount for a single site but not that much. Also, as far as storage space goes, is it the DB that holds the posts that is killing it? How long do the posts remain on record? Really it is just text so it should not take up that much space. What type of DB is it and is it saving a restoration log that may be snowballing out of control? Sometimes restoration logs keep saving all transactions in order to restore the data to the way it was and they can just grow and grow. If you e-mail me privately about the pricing the club is getting now and more info about the software for the BB I may be able to do a lot better. We do not have bandwidth restrictions nor throttle our bandwidth. Just trying to help not step on toes.
