Hi all,

I'm sorry to say that the popularity of RHPFaces has become a negative aspect. Because you have been visiting it so frequently (100 visitors in the last 10 hours), my allotted 2Gb of datatransfer per year have evaporated. What does this mean? Well, it means that shortly, when the last few bits disappear, the site will go offline unless I purchase more datatransfer.

I am happy to do this, as it will only be £15.99 for another 3Gbs, but I cannot afford it until the end of the month and then the cheque will have to clear etc. So this post is by way of warning, that if the site appears inaccessible at any point over th enext few weeks, that is why. Please be patient if this happens, I will have it up and running as soon as possible when it does.

Thanks in advance, I'll post this message up on the site at some point too.

That's not bad news! You should be proud that you've created something so popular it's imploding.

Bloody excellent, if you ask me! WELL DONE!

I call on a sponsor from the heavens! Heed our call, oh lord, and whence thou payest for our divine gigabytes, we shall be glad, and we shall praise you oh lord.

SPONSOR!

I'd do it myself, but £15.99 is like a gibazillion Rand, and I can't afford it.

2GB per year is laughable.

Thank you all, my original post wasn't meant to be a request for sponsorship, purely a warning on future inaccessibility to the site.

In light of the number of PMs I've had with ideas, offers and encouragement, I am overcome with gratitude. I may put a donation facility up on the site in the future, but for now, I am quite happy to continue paying for the site myself, as it also hosts my band's website and I do not think it would be fair for you guys to support that as well.

More suggestions are always welcome, thanks guys 🙂
