I've run into a problem with the current hosting company that I am using that won't allow me to convert everything here over to the Invision forum that I have set up for us. There doesn't seem to be any give on their side, so I seem to be at a dead end. So one possible recourse is to move my domain to new hosting, but having done that once before I know how much of a pain that can be. I also have a lot of time left before the current contract expires, time that I would lose if I moved. So with those two considerations, I am entertaining the idea of getting another domain name just for this forum community (initially) that I would host with another outfit that I've found. Before going forward though, I'd like to hear what everyone else thinks about this idea. Also if there are any suggestions for what the domain name could be, that would be welcome too.

I'm fine with the idea, if Invision can't support or won't support the conversion of this site to their own hosting.



That and I'm sure after a failure of preventing a hacker attack and a failure of restoration, many of us have lost trust in ezboard's hosting system, so it may be in our best interests to move to either whatever other host you may have found, or a lesser known, or newer hosting company.



Of course, we can't avoid a hacking attack if the hacker is skilled enough to hack the entire hosting system, or whatever else, but, and I'm not trying to sound like I'm distrusting of newcomers, it may be nice if we have a board that's password protected, if it's possible. I'm not sure how many people would agree with me, but this is just what I think.



...if my suggestions sound strange, it might be that I don't completely understand what's going on, or what the first post was saying, so if it seems that way, please explain. Thank you.



...and just a question, how much time remains before the current contract expires, and to whom was this contract made?





I don't think it's justice.

Things that came from the darkness

Should be sent back to the darkness

By a hand that came from the darkness.

That's all.



Afterwards, I, too,

Will shoot out my head

With this hand

To return to the darkness.
