Neutrality

Are you out of your mind? Have you actually worked with GM for more than a day? This is one of the most ignorant posts I've ever read. If you actually knew about GM, you would understand that GM is alot more than just D&D actions. In fact, D&D is only for those starting out in GM. Once you have become affluent with D&D or once you feel you can move on without too much D&D practise, you can move onto the powerful and flexible GML. Sure, GML is not as powerful as C or C++, but that's only one way to look at it. GML was built for making games, so it suits game makers better than C/C++. C/C++ is made for any type of program, but it takes forever to make a game in C/C++. Help functions? There's a very detailed GM manual that comes with GM. Plus, there's a message board. Next time, don't make such an ignorant post as that.

I usually frequent with black when it comes to designing a website. However, black and dark greenish-blue shades are my favourite layout colors/shades. I also like different gray shades on black as well. I find that dark colors are much easier on the eyes. At night, bright-colored sites just irritate my eyes. I always tryw to take the user into consideration.

Thank you both for responding to my query. Fortunately, changing the folder's permissions to 0777 solved the problem. Thanks Trekkie101 for the help.

About a week ago, I was trying to figure out a way to clear all of my data out of my server. So, I deleted the public_html folder and trashed it. I created a new public_html folder, set the permissions to 0755, created a new index.php file, but when I tried to view my website, it showed this error, a Forbidden Error: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ Do I have to touch up the htaccess for the public_html folder or something for the server to remove that message? Thanks for the help.

I would have to say Invision Power Board (IPB). It's the message board software I am most accustomed to. I've used PHPBB several times, but it didn't have the same feel as IPB for some reason. I have never used vBulletin, either. I see it as being too expensive for message board software ($200 US or something like that). I would rather make my own message board than pay $200 for a premade board.

Despite the fact that this topic is better served in the programming forum generally, I will pitch in my two cents. I never really delved into ASP that much. I did use an ASP webhost at one point in time, but using ASP was not my number one priority. I learned that ASP was a combination of Microsoft's VBScript and Javascript. I'm not sure if this is correct, but it's what I've read before on HTMLGoodies.com.I've come to the conclusion that PHP is better than ASP, but since I don't comprehend ASP to the extent that I do PHP, my perspective would seem quite biased. So, I will say for now that PHP is most likely a more powerful and efficient scripting language than ASP.

Well, I'm not quite sure about this one. Maybe, maybe not. I would certainly link back to Xisto from my website, but ads? Hmmm... I'm speaking honestly here. Not at this point in time. I was looking for a good webhosting service [ which I also found at Xisto ] that I could use until I could afford a dedicated server with my own domain. Most times, yes. I do feel compelled to post. Other times, not so. But I have a history of not being a consistent poster. Anyways, I can't really suggest anything at the moment. Yes, I feel that the features you offer with the web hosting meets and even surpasses my expectations. I would have been happy with 100 MB, 3 GB Bandwidth, PHP/MySQL and that's it. But other features have proven to be useful as well. Like mentioned above, no, I don't need CPanel technically. I consider it to be a bonus, not a requirement. However, it has served me well so far. I could compromise CPanel for 200 MB space and 10 GB bandwidth. On the other hand, I honestly don't require that much space or bandwidth. I would rather use CPanel instead of acquiring more space and/or bandwidth. I hope my feedback was fruitful and enlightening.

I was truly unaware of it. I always thought that the data stored in MySQL databases were added onto the total cumulative disk usage. Thank you for clearing this up Houdini.

As I understand it, no, there is no difference between the Starter package and the Default package when it comes to maintaining credits. One Credit is equal to one day for both packages, so you don't need to concern yourself about that.To answer your second query, no. Once you receive your hosting account, the surplus credits that you are left will be reset to 3 credits [ this goes for both packages ] . It doesn't matter how many credits you've accumulated before you've received your hosting, it will always be reset to 3. From there, you must maintain your hosting credits as they will decrease by 0.1 every 13-14 minutes.I hope this clears up your concerns. Good luck with your hosting.

As others have iterated earlier, try your best to accumulate a sufficient amount of credits so that when you get back from your vacation, you can start to build up your credits once again. Like another person mentioned, this may be the only drawback for Xisto [ or Xisto for that matter ]. So, post a few more times [ depending on the number of credits you currently have to your name ], and then you'll be set.By the way, good luck with your flight and have fun in Vietnam [ if you are there already, have fun nonetheless ] . I just realized that this topic was created a month ago, silly me.

It seems that I'm having the same problem. My disk space usage is static - it has not surpassed the 0.00 MB mark yet, but I have plenty of data on my server to surpass it. Well, I wouldn't say it's a bad problem really. I'm assuming that its just another bug that the administrators have to fix, that's all.Actually, come to think of it, I do believe that this happened at Xisto before too. Nothing too get concerned about.

You just have to wait for an Administrator to approve you. This can take anyway from a few hours to a few days, which depends on how active the Administrators. After you are approved, you will receive an email telling you that you are approved. Then, you must visit https://support.xisto.com/. You'll create your account there. I hope this cleared up any concerns you have.

Infamousflame: Heh heh. Yes, communism. Hey, the time was right, so I included the age-old communism cliche. Can you blame me, really?

Hey Charlatan, and welcome to Xisto. I hope you enjoy your stay.

I'm speaking for myself here. I never said that I hate rap. I said that rap does not appeal to me in any way. For me, it's very difficult to get into rap. I can't, really. To me, it's very unenjoyable. Just because some of the lyrics aren't about sex or drugs doesn't mean I have to like the genre. And by the way, I don't listen to heavy metal or death metal either, so I'm not too fond of the scream in some of the songs either. I listen to hard rock/stadium rock/classic rock. There isn't too much screaming in these genres really. Okay, I digress.
