Really? I am sure the owner of this site would LOVE to hear how...

Seriously, the amount of bandwidth this site uses is gigantic. That costs money. I use this resource, and it is worth the donation. If you don't think that way, that's ok. No problemo.

As long as you have the hardware, sure. If you find someplace I can get a free web hosting server and support hardware, lemme know...

Well, this forum setup is free but you have to pay to be able to advertise. I own a couple of these forums for other purposes than bass.

Free services have many limits. I have only browsed a little bit of this forum. It is HUGE!. Good luck in finding one that would allow such a big database.

Not to mention the bandwidth for this site...the traffic it gets is mindblowing. I can't even begin to describe how much this site has grown in the last couple years.

We're still waiting for the link, mcnaire2004!
Is it able to provide a 56556 members, nearly 3000000 posts forum, with all the necessary bandwith, all for free?

No but it can hold around 50-100 thousand members. I'm just saying that if money gets tight just break things into 2 sites. And link them.

There is no free lunch.

Somebody somewhere is paying for what you think is free.
