and compare it to other hosts that you may have had
I really like this new reputation thing. Once people have started to build up their reps a bit then it will be alot easier for newbies to recognise who says helpful things and who just says pointless things that nobody should take any notice of. What does everybody else think? Good/Bad/ok?
Hello, I was wondering (because I read at ebaums worls) after you get 10 posts or whatever, can you get video hosting here? Meaning I can just post my videos and be done?That's all I need to know.Thanks
Why Its So Hard To Get Hosting At Astahost
I think the reason why its so hard to get hosting here at Astahost is because of its technical nature. While many of us who haven't got hosting yet (me included) know a fair bit about Computers and other technical aspects there isn't much need to share it here, since the auidience is made up mainly of people with the same amount of knowledge or more. Most of the tutorials to be written have been written I think.Many helpful tips that would benefit people, we all already know. To make &qu
Astahost : Your Service Is Not Free
astahost : you should not call your service free as it isn't - as you demand 50 posts then in fact you are trading your service for people's content. I'm not giving you lots of content to get a bit of space. I only use free services, not paid ones that stupidly lie and pretend to be free. On yer bikes, you wrong'uns, you ignorant time wasters..............................
I Luv This Hosting Site, I Really Do
I think this site is so awesome! I mean, for free hosting, you get tons of stuff! For free! It's the best host I've seen yet! I can't wait to get 10 posts so I can finally try it out, and hopefully it works out for me!

Holy Crap! I Didn't Know This About Astahost!
Holy crap, I'm going to complain about Astahost.From a poster here:QUOTE Once your hosting credit reach a negative number, your site will be taken down. Once it reaches -30, your account will be terminated and all files will be deleted. So as long as you don't get down to -30, all your files will still be intact.OH CRAP!!! I am NOT secure with Astahost. What if I croak? Or get kidnapped? Run over by a car? Struck with lightning?!!! I want my site to be here after
My question is not really that, actually what i am trying to ask is that it obviously costs money to have all the servers, bandwidth, software and staff (maybe if they get paid, i dont know?), who pays for it al?? why do they want to ? I think its great that they do cos we can have a forum, free help, hosting and stuff, but i wouldnt want to be the ones providing the service!!Imagine all the questions and problems you get!! Do the few small ads on this site pay for it all?Is the
There's usually a story behind every name. Sometimes the message or the story is obvious othertimes it isn't. What is the story behind the naming of this domain Astahost?Mine? Hashbang is a shortened version of #!/bin/bash (hashbangslashbinslashbash). I choose this some time ago and have used it in other online forums. It reflects my passion for *nix systems and using the command line. I don't always use the bash shell but I find it's the most user friendly.And what is the st

How To Change My Display Name?
Hi all..Is there any way to change my display name here in this forum?I need to choose some other name as my display name?How can I change this one? I can't find any option for that in the Control Panel!Is it possible to change the name? Thanks..
I read what you said about unactive users and how their hosting will be terminated if they aren't active, but people do go on vacations, and things happen where they don't have time to edit their page and add links to them etc. I think you should make a rule where if you are inactive for one week, you have one week until you have to either add the links, or PM an admin with a parapgraph of your reasoning, and when you will return, because that gives members time to contact you, because i
Don't Want To Be Hosted Member Any More
Hi guys!!, your web hosting service really rocks, my site was never fast and reliable. But I have not enough free time to submit posts and win credits to get my site hosted continuously. I really thank you for your great service.Blessings!!!
What kind of features you think a good forum should have? Please tell me what you think. I'm making a collection with links and reviews of the best forums on the web and I need to know.
One thing I see wrong already is the title, "Free Web Hosting" on the main page. This just screams unprofessional and tells people that Astahost shouldn't be taken seriously. I think you should change the title to, "Astahost | Quality Web Hosting for Free" or something of that sort. This greatly improves the standards and shows people how great the hosting here is, while the current, "Free Web Hosting" sounds like typical web hosting you can find at any other cr

The News/announcemnt/advertisement Scroller/fader
[I did not find any appropriate forum for this, this was the best I could find, I think you should have a feedback forum at the top with Announcements]This is about the box with a red border at the top of every page that displays some advertisement and announcement.Everytime the box fades between two announcements/advertisements, every animation/game freezes until the fading is over. This is very annoying in the arcade, as you probably can imagine.I am using IE 6, that might be the problem, but
Suggestion: Glossary Of Web-related Terms
Here's some web-related terms that I think belong in an on-site glossary for forum members and guests:ASPCGICronPerlJavaJavascriptPHPPythonSSISQLFTPURLCSSHTMLXHTMLDHTMLXMLW3CThese terms are probably just the tip of the iceberg. Now I'm not exactly a total computer newb but I'd be hard-pressed to give a clear, concise explanation of half of these terms. Would a considerable number of members benefit from seeing an on-site glossary of these and other web-related terms?
Here is what I suggest:Have a section for Work Requests. Here people can ask for something to be done, in return for Hosting credits. I know by now that Hosting Credits are of real value, and I would love to trade using them for getting some work done that requires talents or resources that I do not have. So, someone requests for a work to be done. Someone else does the work and the person who requested, pays him/her with Hosting Credits. Requests could range from, graphic requests, sig requ
I was just wondering if this was feasible after what Mark420 or someone mentioned in one of the threads around here. Each of the forum section would have a Wiki, which would have eventually contain a good summing up of all that happens in the forums.Once members participate in a thread, solve a problem, discuss, or come up with something, we could put that info in the Wiki of that section almost summing up and polishing all the information the thread had gained. That way, some one wanting to s
Forum System: Do We Have To Use Ipb?
This is mainly a question to the admins, but if members post it might attract their attention and encourage them consider it.Do we have to use IPB? What would be wrong with using a different forum system? I would suggest SMF, and you could run it on a test basis and there is a converter for it, so all the posts and members etc. would be kept.I'd be happy to help with the conversion process, so if the admins want any help, please PM or email me.Thanks for considering this.
does astahost provide an online html/php/whatever editor. I just want to know if i can edit my webpages online or if i have to upload it each time i decide to change it. i looked on the faq, and searched through the forums, and i even checked the package details. i don't believe i saw it anywhere. thank you for all of your help.
I noticed that when I signed up it said that package one required 10 post and pckage 2 required 30 post. So i was wondering, after you are hosted whats the time period that you have to remain a hosted member (how long do you have to meet up to the min post requirements). Thanks for all of your help.
I have been on Astahost for quite a while and decided to make an honest review on my thoughts about this host.Astahost is a really nice web host. I found that the product itself is comparable to paid hosting such as http://www.rydia.net. But the neatest aspect of Astahost, in my opinion, is the kindness and flexibility of the staff members. Honestly, if you go to support in ANY other free web hoster, they just say "too f&$$ing bad, CASE CLOSED!" But the staff members
From my original post http://www.trap17.com/forums/post-credit-c...add-t42141.html was thinking what you experience members thought.I can't believe I just thought of after so long of being here. this is a simple code it terms of the idea but implentmenting it could be a challange but of course that would depend what need to be involoved.To help people get good posts we should implent a credit counter somewhere in the post saying how much the post is worth. This way people can either edit
I know that astahost has its custom theme for cpanel and everything, but after having a number of other hosts with cpanel, I have grown used to the default cpanel theme.Is there any way that we can have in the options for themes, the default cpanel theme? Thanks for taking the time to look at my suggestion,Brian
The other day i was thinking about astahost and was frustrated at not being able to do more on the forum. But i was not very bothered...i had enough credits to my name. I just did a sort of check on my hosting credits and the way they were "spent"Hosting credits when applied fo starter package: 11Credits deducted :10Credits when i applied for the default package : 34Credits Deducted :32Credits after upgrade : 2Now i have applied for a domain change : 10 creditsSo total credits i spent
I've really enjoyed my stay here both at Trap17 and Astahost, and I love the hosting, the accounts are great! I really got alot out of mine, and I will miss you all (well not really, I'll be checking in every now and then), but I'm going to leave to go to Xisto Group's paid hosting service, I'm looking at all of the plans, and developing some original scripts for my site, then I expect to create my hosting account there late August- early September.But you will still be
To the AdminsI was wondering what you guys think of possibly hosting an art sub-forum. It seems that there are at least a few people here who might be interested in this. Basically, it'd exist separately from the graphic design forum and would be focused more on art for art's sake rather than a pure design aspect that would be for a more practical use. It would be a good way for the artists here to share their work, gain some exposure and receive feedback from their peers. I was thinkin
My account is now suspended, may cancel it, don't know. I have switched everything over to my new hsot anyway. Me and a friemd are running a hosting site (www.roxr.com). So I will not be in need of hosting here anymore, since I can have all the space or anything I can ever want there without posting. Thank you AstaHost staff for being so inviting and giving me such good hosting.
Does the domain hosting you refer to, mean FREE www.something.com hosting? Or do you mean SUBDOMAIN hosting? And another question is, if I have no knowledge of PHP or MYSQL, can you guys help me make a PHPBB forum? And can I host .html only website? Or I can create sub-domains from my domain? Will PHP help be provided?
I think it would be nice if email accounts here were pop accessable. I surf through a tmobile sidekick 2, and believe me, its impossible to check my email through it. Pop would let my sk mail client access it. It might be worth looking at and might bring more people inpeaceAaron
I suggest that you upgrade to cPanel X. This verson of cPanel has a better look and the color/theme of this version doesn't take over the feel of cPanel. Not only that, it's more user-friendly.
Well, I didn't find another place to post this...As all (most) of you, I started posting here becouse I wanted to get hosted, but now I feel like a part of this forum. It's like a huge family.You guys want to make a quality forum with quality members posting quality posts. I think you are on the right way to do it. Keep up the awesome work
Just one week ago, my account with Astahost was suspended out of the blue. I wasn't out of hosting credits, so it's not possible that I'm suspended due to a lack of hosting credits. I waited for days for my account to come back, I PMed the admins like Nilsc who replied that my account was suspended due to "higher cpu usage". I thought, this was it, that's what you get for free web-hosting. I thought my account is terminated.Then I emailed OpaQue, and he kindly took time
two things, 1 i had to register to post here, and 2 are these reseller accounts, can i host forums, i won't make any money, it would be all for free.
Well, my time has come...

I'd like to thank everyone for their help and their support and giving me something to do!Also the admins, you're so helpful, remember tha
More Hosting Credits For Tutorials
hey,i was looking at the tutorial section, and noticed that tutorials contribute a lot more to the forum. if you look at the reactions, most tutorials are greatly appreciated. i'm not sure if it would be a good idea to give tutorials more hosting credits, considering there might be even more spammers - copy&paste even now happens too much, and i'm not doing it for me, either, i only posted one, and am kinda nubish it's just a suggestion, think about it.i'll see what you thin

Suggestions For The Hosting Request Process
Well, after having been a member of a number of different free hosting companies (as well as an admin on one, and a support person on another), I have found a number of things. First of all, the way that astahost does the request process, isn't as professional as some of the other hosting companies.For example, the hosting company I had before astahost, used to use something called the HCP ( http://thehcp.net/ ). Account creation, upgrades, and requests were done through this, and it worked

Post Count For Politics & Economics
Could we get posts counted for the Politics & Economics subforum of Life Talk?
The Website Review at the moment is a little lacking, and I think it because of two reasons. One, it doesn't allow for post counts, which if combined with its own rules and regulations could be done away with and two, people like me get slightly confused on how to actually review the site. When I review a site, I often do it in-depth. In order to help the person to better their site. And some of the replies I have seen whilst wondering about that forum are: "I like it" and "I
This is just a formal request, in case the termination script doesn't work, but unfortunately I no longer am able to keep my account alive, and there's no point in keeping the disk space anymore. Since moving to a new job I can't seem to find the time to post with both the volume + quality needed to keep my hosting active. Just wanted to say thanks, though, starting back when astahost had, i think, 100MB for the package #2 and then steadily increasing, it's always been the best f
I'm looking at the forum categories and I can't see a software category. Could you perhaps make a software category or maybe combine it with operating systems and make it a software and operating systems category. Or you could make operating systems a subforum of the software category.Also I was wondering if you could change the title of Networking to Internet and Networking so that way we can get a little bit more posts there.

How Do I Know If Im Qualified For The Hosting?
Hello guys i have a question for you. How do i know if im already qualified with the hosting?? I have 50 points. And according to the admin vujsa my post is not enough?? Should i post more? (i will not spam). Where can i view my post? so that i can figure out that im qualified with the said hosting? I already read the Criteria To Be Fulfilled Before Hosting (f.a.q.), READ THIS FIRST BEFORE MAKING A REQUEST but im still confused. lol..
Well OpaQue .. what you say about the sponsoring ?
I know that the mods and creators are trying to keep this professional, but on many of these new posts I am seeing Xrated materials that have been added... and not banned!!?? I don't have my kids on these posts, thankfully... but why would anyone want to start to ruin these posts with just filth...

Looking over the board rules I have noticed that there is no rule explicitly against resurrecting long dead posts, as evidenced by the resurrection of yet another Gimp vs Photoshop thread. This one just happens to be four years old. Frequently I have noticed these topics being resurrected by "iGuest"; I am unsure what exactly that means. Oft times threads get resurrected by new members coming in trying to earn early points fast. I will admit this is very much a personal opinion but I t

No indication is given of whether the condition is temporary or permanent. The 410 (Gone) status code SHOULD be used if the server knows, through some internally configura
"overall Top 20 Posters" Linking To "today's Top 20 Posters"
Just wanted to tell that the "Overall top 20 posters" link in the menu is actually linking to "Todays top 20 posters". Just a small edit. Hope an admin sees this.I was just looking through members, anyway found those top posters in members list page. Nice ones in here, hope to see you guys soon.
Better Topic Notification Subject
I have subscribed to email notification to topics and some posts which I have posted. Currently I have set the notification method to immediate. If somebody responds to the topic I get a standard non-useful subject line in the email like: "Topic Subscription Reply Notification ( Free Web Hosting )". Since I usually check the mails from my smartphone, I most often just glance through the subject instead of reading the email, it saves me lot of loading time. So, I think if the admins mak
