Navigating Trap17 Free Web Hosting Is it just me or is this very difficult?

[gunbound 0]

Honestly, I'm having a lot of trouble figuring out how to work around Xisto. I joined just today with hopes of finding a reliable host, and I think I found it! I've been making posts that are useful to the forum, and I have over 12 credits. I applied to get my web space but the processing page did nothing after about 10 minutes, so I figured that it went through. Then I came back to the forum to read somewhere that one needs 15 credits, even though I've read from the General page that I only need 10 to get Package 1. I'm so confused! Why isn't there a page where full instructions are available for someone new like me, instructions to help me figure out how I do this? I've read a lot of the forum postings and found no help yet - but it shouldn't be that hard. I tried logging in to my account and it says that the logins fails - as if it didn't register when I tried.Why isn't there a page where I can get a good tutorial? Is it just me? Why is this so difficult? Someone please help!

You need 15 posts, not credits for package 1. From the main page:

 

1. 20 mb with 500 mb Bandwidth ( 15 posts )

2. 50 mb with 1 GB BW ( 25 posts )

3. 101mb with 2GB BW ( 50 posts ) [D]

4. 150 mb with 3GB BW ( 100 posts )

And these two posts are good ones to read.

You need a minimum of 15 posts to apply for a 20 MB webspace. Your credits determine the amount of days that you could go on with out posting a message at the forum. Credits depend on the lenght of your posts. They are two entirely different things.

Thank you very much! I guess I'm just not used to something like this, I've never seen a web host that uses a forum this way. I think it's a great idea!It took a long while for me to find Xisto. I was searching for quite a while through page after page, from site to site, and web host to web host, I just wasn't ready to find this. So I probably wasn't able to remember what I read what site I remember if from, which would explain my confusion. I think that it would be good for this site to have a link to a page external from the forums that would provide the information that I needed to learn from the above links.Thanks again,

Oh thanks! I was really confused as well. I guess it just takes a lot of getting used to. My previous host was freewebs. What a load of crap that was.
