Apparently, RBJ is having bandwidth issues. Their current host is kicking 'em out, because they're averaging about *100 GB* a month. If anyone can help out, either with donations or by offering some space, go hit up their forums...

the forums might even last pass midnight.

Check out for more info. (http://epercussionist.addr.com)

Keep your chin up...I'm sure Carlos will be able to get through this...

[babysakura]

pipsy just told me her host can host over 100GB and she's got unlimited webspace...so maybe we can just host it over at her place for a while before carlos gets anything new up! isn't that cool! unlimited...i like the sound of it :)

[achtungbaby]

Moving this over to the Geek forum, cuz I actually have some questions about that. I mean, is there really such a thing as unlimited bandwidth...?!?

Hey, I just read a troubling thread over at WHT:

http://webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?s...ht=featureprice (http://webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=88435&highlight=featureprice)

Does featureprice offer GZIP? Cuz without it, the forum is gonna require a helluva lot more bandwidth.

so sad. and tomorrow is the fourth bday of rbj. :cry:

not at my school. we have free T1 connection in all the dorm rooms, but they cut our bandwidth by about 70%. :pissed:

the ask-for help email i sent to feature price about wanting to host rbj:

Anissa - Customer
2002-11-18 20:01:03 mmm how much bandwith do i have?
i'm planning to host a site and i need 1 gigabyte of webspace that can
handle 100 gigabytes of bandwidth per month.

The Akuma on GiantRobot has made a couple of posts that I definitely don't think you would have made. Just wondering if somebody else was using the same login as I don't really know the origin of the moniker. All I knew for sure was that you have posted to other boards, like Yolk, using Akuma.
