Real Answer: Find out which forums have the mosts posts from accounts that pay the most money. Basically, assign every account a dollar value, then see how much of that dollar value is posting in each forum over the last 2 years, then break it down in to quarters. Find your high spenders, and create a strategy around them. Do we have a forum that has a poo poo load of traffic (like fyad) and no actual cash (like bfc)? Because that's a great forum to delete to save on bandwidth/servers while keeping cash flow the same.

Wouldn't new software and moving the forums off of Katrina-era hardware onto a cloud-hosted solution be a bit cheaper? I mean, if we're believing it costs thousands a month to run this place, then there has to be some costs that can be scaled down with as much bandwidth and computing power as there is available today. I could also be full of poo poo because my job is just to take the engineers requirements and make sure they're fulfilled correctly.

Thoguh posted:I'd imagine there would be a large one time cost for the move and Lowtax doesn't think it is worth the cost since it isn't like it would lead to a whole bunch of new registrations. Though a couple more downtime incidents might change that calculation. Well that's one.
