| When I sent this newsletter one week ago, I did it under fear, because I was afraid my colleagues would get really mad after I leave the FM team and remove my tutorials (who are now copyrighted). More, I was having a bad patch and I needed some rest.
Since that day, I am learning PHP/MySQL, so I would be less in the "unknown" if I build a phpbb forum (or any other self-hosted board). But I still don't feel ready for this move, but on the other side, the new FM policy itches me and I have some bad feelings about what would happen.
So I open this poll.
------------ On my side, whatever we stay here or move, we should enlarge the services for non-FM sites. Being too specialized in only one host has become a weak point. Enlarging the services can guarantee its future. | |

- The thing is that If you move the forum, I don't think you'll get a better FREE host without boring and unwished commercials. Plus, you might have a subdomain. (not something like: http://www.google.ca/hosting/regularuser/ishimaru-design.html) It's totally your choice...
You must enlarge. It would be nice. Laurent told me that the best solution, if I move, would be to purchase a paid mutual hosting at OVH, but some infos are missing : 1- The prices are in Euros -> Is there a way for Canadians ? 2- I have no credit card and OVH doesn't appear in the list on my Desjardins AccèsD account when I pay bills, so I don't know if there is another way... | |

| that's right that if we take an other service, we will have ads everywhere, maybe it won't be free and as easy as here... That's why I would prefer to stay here (especially that this forum has already a lot a messages and members, and our google place will decrease ) | |

Not necessarily, if Ishimaru Chiaki can get a copy of the messages from forumotion, then it can be put into a real phpBB forum (*possibly*) | |

| For now, we can't retrieve the database of a forumotion.
Now I have learned that I have another thing who keeps me from leaving forumotion : my brother (IRL). He has a FFXI linkshell board on forumotion. He previously created it for a linkshell who disbanded itself, and now, he's going to re-use his board for a new linkshell.
If I finally don't move, I can always use the stonerocket account (not created yet) for my PHP/MySQL | |
