Can someone tell me who owns this forum since I want to ask him some questions.

I tried administrator but I guess that is just a ghost account.

Thank you!
Domenico

Yay, I was wondering what who paid for this? I'm guessing Wizards Hosting is donating hosting............but who paid for the vBulletin?

You know what I've noticed?

When you ask a question about a particular company here, you get responses like.."I personally know him..."
"He lives right next dooor..." And answers along those lines...

Now, I'm wondering...Are all webhosts, designers, and all web services providers living in the same neighbourhood?:confused: :homer:

Nope, indeed i could knock on his door within 5 minutes of leaving my house!, lol

Its kinda spookey that out of the entire globe i know so many people that live within a 5 mile radius! - and i still havent been for a beer with ANY of them! (and its a git none of them are female :( ) - although females are outnumbered 100 - 1 on the internet, which makes finding them a difficult job indeed!

big_smooth: Unless there is some sort of major inaccuracy in road maps and mapped distances on earth then the hosts in america are a few thousand miles away from me in the UK :D

Hey - when I started out online...years and years ago...I was the ONLY female that I knew of online.

I mean, I'm sure there were others - but on all of the newsgroups, BBS's, etc. that I frequented...I was the only female! :D

I'm glad there's more of us online now. Shows me that there's hope for this world yet. :P

I was lucky, my first email pal back in the mid 90s (when I first started on the net) was female! And we're still corresponding.

Of course we lived in a male-dominated area of the web because we're both videogamers and mecha (japanese robot animation) lovers.

:)

webhosting seemed like a male-dominated area as well, but I realize it isn't. Just look at the posts here at WHT.

Yep there was some confusion earlier, because I am Marty (male) and she is Martie (female). I was called a her at the time and long drawn out discussion occured.

It was kind of humorous at the time. :)
