FYI
« on: November 05, 2010, 10:59:56 AM »
I know this board brings a lot of joy into peoples lives, seemingly for free, but I think you should know the sacrifices (financial) that haven been made

Here is the breakdown of costs since January 2010:

T-1 (internet circuit) - $14,000.00
Servers: $3600.00
Support Software: $1400.00
Time spent developing website functions/etc: $5355.00
Legal Costs associated with website:  $1100.00
Promotional Expenses:  $450.00

I am not counting the maintenance time as I don't normally charge for that.  It comes with the service of hosting websites.

Grand total:  $25,905.00

Just some food for thought.....

Man, you guys are Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!). I offered to host this place from my basement (maybe with a tad more pipe) and you laughed.

Damn. Then add up Steve Daves issues.  What with all the weeks at Betty Ford and out of court settlements to the victims families...sheesh.
