Post by **theraven1979** » 23 Mar 2008, 21:21

For some reason we've blizted our bandwidth usage this month. Therefore I perdict within the next 24 hours the site will be down. Rest assured this will be back up on the 1st April.

"The domain thestranglerssite.co.uk (theraven) has reached 80% of its bandwidth limit (14028.39/15000.00 Megs)."

Leave it with me I need to look into this.

I can't belive we use so much fucking bandwidth!

Or have a yearly membership fee, say £10 or something.

I think my card has become out of date - just renewed it.

Everyone's thrown in a lot of money that will last us until at least the end of the year - no one needs to put any more money in. However, if you didn't put in and you can donate a fiver towards the funds then I would be grateful and it goes straight towards the site pot.

I'll never go for advertising cos it's annoying and I never want to charge people a tenner but the odd fiver doesn't go a miss and adds towards the £200+ a year site costs

Cheers
