Immunity 0 Report post Posted September 13, 2005 The way this site works is simple really.You post, you get "credits" credits per post are not fixed, it depends on the length of your post, spam, such as "Hi" or "asasalkwjkw!" will get deleted sharpish.Once you accumulate these credits you can exchange then for hosting, 10 credits for #1 and 30 for #2, you can upgrade at any time.Credits are also the number of days you can go without posting. For example if you had 9 credits and went away for 8 you would ahve 8 credits when you returned. If you reach 0 credits your hosting it suspended.Its simple really. You can see the number of credits you have on the Forum Index, they are also called "hosting days"And I don't know of any sites or other help I can offer you.Welcome to Xisto, and enjoy your stay.

wild20 0 Report post Posted September 13, 2005 And may I also add that ALL the things advertised are true, except better. Xisto is the best free hosting I have ever come across. It has cpanel with pre-scripts such as fantastico. It also has shopping cart systems for running a business I guess. You have custom error pages. And you also have site builders such as wordpress and templates like template express. I hope this answers your question. I love showing off Xisto. It is awesome! Have a great day guys.

BuffaloHelp 24 Report post Posted September 13, 2005 Credits are also the number of days you can go without posting. For example if you had 9 credits and went away for 8 you would ahve 8 credits when you returned. If you reach 0 credits your hosting it suspended. 185574[/snapback] Just wanted to point out that if you had 9 hosting credits and went away for 8 days, when you return you'll have 1 hosting credit left. 1 hosting credit = 1 day of free active hosting account. You should be able to search the forum for other answers but I'll post some key information here: When you are approved for hosting and activate it, your hosting credit will reset to 2. So initial choice of plan 1 or plan 2 will reset to 2 hosting credits once activated. This is done so that a member does not accumulate hundreds of hosting credits before activating a hosting and only deduct 10 or 30 credits, respectively. If you start with plan 1 and wanted to upgrade to plan 2 later, it'll take additional 30 credits and it WILL reset to 2 hosting credits after the activation--no matter how much you have accumulated.  In my signature area, you'll find some of key topics that every member should read. Please refer to them and if there are more questions, feel free to post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
