I swear. That has GOT to be the WORST hosting job I have seen for a forum. Sorry if I'm affending anyone here, but shit, it's the truth. |

To be fair they get huge amounts of hits. Just look at the downtime FN has had amongst other sites, and that is dwarfed by Sharereactor. I bet it's hard getting a stable server that supports that many hits at an affordable price and wants to host a site of that nature. That's why it's hosted on their own server, which means it's costs a lot to run. |

eh, maybe they make a few bucks with the ads,(though i have a few shady theories on subsidized costs) but i couldnt see how they break even, much less catch a profit. i see em always asking for donations of equipment and webspaces. but, hell, i dont know why anybody does anything. |

usually admins and mods pay. and if u have SITE (u have page with some stuff, not only forum) with forum.. and u get about 30000-40000 clicks per day u can sell some banner space... :-/ 1500-2000$ in month for one big banner.. so sometime they earn a lot of money.. :-/ |

well. at first, what is SR? forum (less money)? which one? warez? well, in russia warez sites r kinda popular and they can get money for banner.. like example from internet shor or shit like that.. in other world - i really dunno. will ebay buy bunner even on very well visited site if that site is with illegal content. in russia - yes. in russia u can buy any software CD or movie or game or even DVD for 2-4$. everywhere. it's not legal but nobody gives a fuck. in my univercity where i studied was big shop with warez CD's.. (not russia but close to her). so in that case only one way - porn banners, or penis erlagement. hehe. it's clear why they dont want such "banners" or simple - they have no management. or sucky one. dunno. i was in close relationships with russian warez sites. and i know that 2000$ in month for banner on well visited site is normal price. u have 30000-50000 clicks in day - u got it. |

It's back up now. Well, in that "have-to-refresh-3-or-4-times-to-get-access-to-a-page-cuz-it-keeps-failing-to-load" kind of way we all know and love.
