At this rate BB won't be leaving us seen as this government is intent on tracking our every last move

Vicky. · 31-07-2017, 10:30 PM

I prefer offseason anyway so I would stay.

But I don;t really think the forum would survive without BB. It wouldn't be worth it for mark to pay for the server and stuff..and fairly sure he wouldn't pay out of his own pocket just so like 20 members could chat about nothing

Is tibb expensive to run?

Vicky. · 31-07-2017, 10:32 PM

I am not sure tbh. I know it does cost money though which is made back by ads and that

Flashbacks to when Tom threatened Josy by turning ad-block on so the forum couldn't run until she implemented the like button

Yeah, I imagine they'd attempt to broaden it into general Reality TV chat which it kind of already does but idk.

Final year on tibb?

Vicky. · 31-07-2017, 10:37 PM

Mark did mention something about this once and from memory (though my memory has in recent days been proven to be not so sharp

) he said it was a fair few hundred quid a month to run.

So without the ad revenue, it would be money from his own pocket for nowt.

Though as a pro-poker player that kind of money is nowt to him

I'd stay, I love off season more than on season tbh

Oh bloody hell that much? I was thinking £50 a month like a phone contract

Its the costs for a decent server I think rather than the actual site.

I could be completely wrong, as it was literally like 5 years ago when this was discussed (it was when members were going on about how slow the site was...and demanding a new server)

You can actually do quite a good forum for free as you probably know Kate and I did one once ,you get the ads but you also get a shout box etc and all the things TIBB offers,you can get multiple skins and I used to love doing it. Pro Boards is a good one I run a couple of them, so if marc ever runs out of dosh there is another option

Yes I do remember that..it was a bit laggy and slow though and there were only an few members...thats not a criticism as I imagine actually setting up a forum is hard work...just an observation.

I am fairly sure those kind of forums couldn't handle the amount of memberswe get at times, I mean

Most users ever online was 11671, 26-01-2016 at 01:16 PM.

Over 10k people online at once? obviously thats not the norm but even at quiet times we have like 200+ on

I think if you had a lot of members you can pay a fee and you get more space etc, We only had a few Tibb members as our site was opposing Tibb at that time ,and we usually got the banned members,lol but we had some fun on it tbh.

We had some on there that are still here today.
