    Splitting web host requests forum.

    Had an idea...

    Why not switch the

    Web Hosting Requests Forum into

    (1) Shared/Reseller Requests Forum
    (2) Dedicated/Co-Location Requests Forum

    Just a thought,
    Josh

    I think it should, it would be a lot more organized also

    Stephen,

    That was my original idea, i just didnt want to request it for fear that it would be shot down as "not doable"

    But now that i know its been requested before, maybe it will be done

    Cheers,

    I hope so man It would really help out hosts that can't offer dedicated/colo or resellers or the hosts that don't offer dedicated/colo ect.

    For me, it would be more organized, as i offer all 3 groups ... for example i could split going through the forums as

    One time per day -- shared
    One time per day -- reseller
    One time per day -- ded/colo

    I think as you said that it would be a big help!

    Yes it would. What I personally think is make a new Cateogorie called Web Hosting Requests then as the forums have

    Shared Hosting Requests
    Reseller Hosting Requests
    Dedicated/Colocations Server Requests
    Free Hosting Requests ( not sure if this one is the greatest idea but eh... )

    definately an even better idea.

    Thanks ... I sent a PM & Email to Headsurfer ( Robert Marsh ) on this I am not quite sure if he replies to them. I think that this may possibly be one of the best requests I have seen at WHT.

    Yes, I would like to see other hosts and members reply to this though.

    Well im sure they will as they see it ... but to me, this could be a big help to the wht community.

    To redefine it, i think this is what we're asking for: (in entirety)

    Night

    Good ideas all around.

    /me thinks HeadSurfer should pick 3 ways to possibly change them (1 option could be to simply keep it same) and have a poll

    Requests and offers should definately be separate... People making legitimate requests are barred from doing so because of the 1 ad per 5 days rule in the advertising forums.

    I have a VERY URGENT request I need to post but can't because I posted an ad a few days ago. Sucks.
