  1. It's good to see that changes has been made! Congrats! But! Even if you have a board with around 8 users online and with 200.000 posts you have to upgrade to Plus 40 for $29,99/month?? Because there's no way of deleting posts of users. Forums should work as archives and not like a place to chat where posts doesn't matter! All posts of my users matters and should not be deleted! The post limit is a shame!
  2. Prejudice Is Ignorance. Do you call that one a fantastic deal? Do you know that if you purchased the same package for $9.99 a month before the launch of IPB3 (some weeks ago), that deal would have been something you can't imagine.
  3. As I mentioned: I contacted the staff asking if my existing board was going to be affected by any change in their hosting plans. They told me that my board was going to remain the same, and I thank you for that! But I won't be able to start new projects with the new IPS Hosting Plans. And that's sad.
  4. Hi! This is the most devestated change Invision Power have made since the beginning of IPB3. First time I looked on the "Hosted Communities" I was speechless. All those limitations! I've used the hosted feauture by IPS for a long time and I like it alot. Before the release of IPB3 I was planning to upgrade my existing site and had some more projects that I was going to launch. I was going to use the IP Hosted Communities for those but now it won't be possible. I contacted the staff asking if my existing board was going to be affected by any change in their hosting plans. They told me that my board was going to remain the same, and I thank you for that! I want to explain to you what would have happened to my existing board if I had to move to the new hosted plans. I'm going to go through each step. My existing board uses the old Hosting: Basic Forum for $10/month. It's perfect for my site, some months I have to buy some extra bandwidth because my traffic is very dependent on what's happening. This is what would have had happened if I had to change from the old Basic Forum for $10/month to the new Basic 10 for $10/month. Average Online Users What?! My forum is depending on what's happening daily. Some days I have 5 users online, some extreme days I have 300. If I had this limitation it would be a very serious problem for us. We wouldn't be able to have such a limitation, impossible! Period! File Storage Change from 100MB to 50MB! A 50% change!! I have IP.board and IP.Blog, occupying 60MB. Change won't be possible! Maximum Posts Change from unlimited to 10,000!!! What's going on IPS!! You can't be serious! When I go to a board, the first thing I'm looking for is how much posts the users have made. 10.000? I would probably close the page looking for another forum. We have 150.000+ posts, does this mean I need to change to the Plus 35 for $29,99/month?! Now I pay $10/month and the change would be $29,99/month, 200% more expensive!! And they suggest to delete the posts? This is irresponsible to do such thing to your lovely users! And as I mentioned before, many people chech the amount of posts on the board before registering! In conclusion, if I want my existing board to be hosted by the new hosted plans by IPS, it would cost $29,99/month. And in some time we're going over 250,000+ posts and then I would have to pay $44,99/month for something I'm paying $10/month today! 350% more expensive! This is just very sad to me and all the users. You make wonderful products and you have a great team but this is like a tumor that you have to take of. Your hosting plans was so healthy before! Thank you very much, devee
