RL being Rusted Logic, not real life. Anyway, posting here. Makes sense, I guess.

----

Updated again. Went ahead and renewed two domains early. Better to do it now than wait, I guess (since I don't have to suffer though 10 "Auto-renewing your domain in 3... 2... 1... weeks" etc), and means the amount is nice and stable for a while longer (rather than having to update it twice as it auto-renews)

Our free domain renewal-per-year was used on rustedlogic.net, so that's an extra +10 I wasn't expecting to have.

The donation bars for the VPS and RL.net have been updated, as well as updating the Tina2 commands for them (less of a pita to update it now).


Current RL-FUND: $201.14 + 55.97

Finance-o-metre:
• rustedlogic.net (2010/11/14) ($210)
• xkeeper.net (2010/11/28) ($200)

• rustedmagick.com (2011/03/14) ($190)
• acmlm.net (2011/06/14) ($180)
• boulderbmx.com (2011/07/01) ($170)
• acmlm.org (2011/08/23) ($160)


※ Hosting plan renews (2011/09/11) (-$55)
    Costs $214.80.

• tcrf.net (2011-10-06) (-$65)
• rustedlogic.net (2011/11/14) (-$75)
• The above list of domains auto-renews again, in order.



That should take care of it for a while longer; the VPS will last for around 4 months. Possibly 5. If we need to upgrade it (and I suspect the HDD will need boosting, if nothing else) it will increase the rate we spend on it (currently about $11/month). So far it seems to have been a decent investment, even if the first month was kind of wasted.


※ If you want to donate, PayPal money to xkeeper@gmail.com and use the "gift" option (you can donate but it takes some big fees out of it). Feel free to specify if it's for the VPS or the main hosting, otherwise it'll just be used for whatever needs it. Not required right now, of course.

Nice to see everything's under control for the time being.

At least this is far less annoying than a PBS pledge drive.

Did I hear "bar"? Who's going to the bar? I'm down for heading to the bar!

Or Wikipedia's message at the top.

It never irritated me until people started complaining about it, either. Can't they just block the images?

But that would show a complete disregard for the support of Jul, financially.

I'm pretty sure Bloodstar was referring to Wikipedia's image, not Jul's

For a while, I realized I had accidentally blocked Jul's ad when I was trying to block Livestream ads. I unblocked it.

I don't block ads unless they're overbearing... and come on guys, this is pretty minimalistic

Just suffer through the few ads on here, and love Jul They provide us with an excellent board, as long as we provide the views for the pages and ads. It's like a socialist state

The price of the VPS is going up by $2bux per month because I upgraded the RAM and HDD space.

Though, somewhat amusingly, the reason I did that was because Sukasa's minecraft backups were taking up quite a bit of space, and then he restarted the map and now it's back to small size again ...

(Though, the logs are taking up a lot of space. I should really crontab them out)

Thanks for automatically cancelling that recurring payment when I upgraded, TOCICI. I appreciate it!

Bonus: Contact us link on the site? Nope. Support tickets available to normal users? Nope. Contact link in the control panel? Nope. It's buried under one of the always-there option like things under "VPS Support Services" (literally the last place I looked). Fabulous!


And yes, I donated :tenbux: to Child's Play. Oops.

Well, got that taken care of. All better! (Though the VPS still costs $13/m now.)
