By: animaniactoo Date: August 18, 2021, 5:16 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Well alrighty then. We have been very busy bees. We have been SO busy that I got an e-mail informing me that our attachments folder is almost full. And it only took us a week! We can buy more space, so this is not a disaster, but the question is 1) Are we confident enough that we're gonna be around and active enough long enough to make this worthwhile, and 2) how much more should we buy - i.e. should we just get 250 mb for now at a cost of $15.00, or go for the 1 gig at $49.00 We got 10 mb free which means if we continue at the current pace, we would run out of space again in 25 weeks. The one gig at our current pace would last us 100 weeks (or close to 2 years). Personally, I think yes on 1, based on how active we have been this past week. I'm wiling to cover the $5/month that gets us the eternal no ads option and personal gallery availability for members. Some people have offered to chip in for that, but this additional storage is where I would ask for contributions in terms of maintenance for this site. Forum upgrade options here (full disclosure, someone already offered to pay the one-time fee to install the chatroom feature and I've just been able to demo that, it looks like it would be fun - basically instant messaging as a group). (HTM) https://haxnuts.createaforum.com/upgrades.php What not buying space will mean - soon we can't upload any more pics, including custom avatars. OR. My husband is telling me we should just go reconvene on Discord, which he insists does not have these limits and my head is exploding at the idea of starting over but I will figure it out if I gotta. Or we could call it a day and go join peeps on Reddit. I mostly created this forum because some people didn't want to do reddit, so it's up to you guys. Oh, wait, one last option - I can go and delete some attachments, but given that they've only been here for a week, I don't think that's a great option for people who are still dropping in and checking stuff out/have shared their floofs, etc. #Post#: 2478-------------------------------------------------- Re: Oh Crap, we're almost out of space! By: devils…b Date: August 18, 2021, 5:28 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Please do not discontinue this. I am very comfortable here. The vibe is great. It reminds me of WAPO. I have also joined Reddit and find it very challenging to use but I continue to try. #Post#: 2485-------------------------------------------------- Re: Oh Crap, we're almost out of space!

[/quote] Do you have online banking? If your bank has Zelle, you can send it right from there. Ani will need to DM her email address to us. #Post#: 2488-------------------------------------------------- Re: Oh Crap, we're almost out of space! By: PalomaBlanca Date: August 18, 2021, 5:50 pm --------------------------------------------------------- If you are willing to continue, along with the other mods, I vote to get more space. We're offering to chip in. :) Moving things to another platform might prove problematic in terms of dropping participants. Which is what we don't want. This site has about 155 members, and a substantial number of posts. That speaks to its success. It's a much more free-flowing, organic environment than reddit.....and that (along with most of the regulars!) is what keeps me here. #Post#: 2489-------------------------------------------------- Re: Oh Crap, we're almost out of space!

I'm happy to contribute. #Post#: 2492-------------------------------------------------- Re: Oh Crap, we're almost out of space!
