The Official Display YOUR Forums Post!

Post a link to YOUR ASP Playground forums. I' m really curious to see what everyone is doing with them.

Here' s mine: http://63.123.147.186/forum/

Here is mine:

http://www.aspplayground.net/forum



I am really curious about the integrations too...but unfortunately I was not able to get in contact with all our customers (don' t know why some of them haven' t even registered their copies?)

For the rest who have registered their copies, they are all using this forum in their intranet!! (Stella, regent, willtze, albert, ranji, danial, edchen..etc etc..)

I wished I could have something to show to our prospects too... Well, this brand new forum has just been out for almost a month, so I guess we will all have to wait for some " show-off' s" to come out

nice forum Mike! Actually we have some message icons that can integrate better with dark background (same icons, just different Matte or canvas)

Let me know if you want the icons and I will send them to you

Hi freddy,

if you see this mesage, could you please post your URL so we can see it too? I know you will be running (or have been running) this forum on the Internet, so if you can please post your URL.

Don' t forget you will only be able to receive updates if you show me your URL (as described in the license agreement)

That would be great!

Hi,

I wish I could give you the URL.. the old one I gave you has expired (I mean the hosting plan), and I am currently looking for something that is cheap and good (SQL of course)

i m testing the forum on my own machine at this moment, so no URL for u guys now.

what are your hosting plans, both Samuel and Mike?

I need something cheap and good....just recently left interland because their new plans are all too expensive...I browsed over to some hosting index and found some good ones (CIhost, Web-x.net, and some others) ...can you give me some good suggestions? I want to have my site up and running as soon as possible too.

What goes around, comes around..

I' m in the process of moving my site to www.gearhost.com ... I' ve already got my forums over there.

They have the coolest control panel I have ever seen. There' s a demo of it that you can check out.

This is me ... I just forgot to login.

May I suggest Readyhosting.com?

Actually the original ASPPlayground.NET SQL beta version is installed and run on Readyhosting.com for more than 6 months, before their network got hacked and before we lost all our database. (If memory serves me right, Mike' s website is on Readyhosting.com too)

Since then we moved to http://www.terrasite.com , and has been up and running for almost a month now. So far their network is very stable and we didn' t experience any problem even when I ran stress tests on it. The only complaint is that their support system sucks. No one cares about your question in 24 hours (in a business world, it is 24 too many)

gearhost.com is probably the best solution at the moment, but if you are really serious about running a commercial site, it would be better for you to choose flarehosting.com. Their site and service are all very good, and you get more components with their business plan (I had a test site with flarehosting.com before). The only problem is it cost twice as much.

be sure to check out the companies we mentioned above. CIhost made some serious mistakes before and therefore I wouldn' t recommand it to you (their support system is OK)...web-x.net is actaully a reseller of CIhost, so they are the same actually. Interland in my opinion, " SUCKS" . If you have been on the net long enough, you should remember there was a " translate =>' f' " bug with IIS that will expose the content of ASP codes to determined hackers. When my site (the other one, not ASPPlayground.net) was on their network, I actually wrote a very simple Perl script to hack my own site. I reported the bug several times but NO ONE responded until I decided to leave.

So be sure to do enough research before giving up your credit card #.

(this message seems a bit too long[:' (])

To Mike and samuel: thanks, I will check them out.

To Samuel: Yes, it is too long

hi mike,

We actually did not modify the forum much in our intranet...we just put a logo and change the header and footer.

by the way, your forum gives out DNS error?

We used dedicated server (~US2000 a month ) before, so it probably won' t interest you. We are now using a plan that is around 400 a month.

the webserver was down for some strange reason last night, but it' s back up now.

oh great..

because I wasn' t able to see your forum intergration last night, I was wondering..

I just went to see it.. your forum looks VERY VERY awesome... .. the small graphics fit better now... looks teriffic
