Default Things you don't know about the forums and are too afraid to ask?

Ok, as per title. There's often been a few things I've often wondered about the forums so It's question time.

Be prepared to be branded a complete noob!


So I'll go first.

When you quote, what are the numbers in the quote tag?

Who is hosting our forums now days?

What is the monthly cost?

The numbers in the quote are to reference the unique ID number for the quote you're actually posting. Ie, your post is post number 209607.

Nope just this one, we have considered offering the space out to friends in the past but as yet no one has felt the need.

You could probably save money on the RAM. 128MB is fine for SPS which had over 200 people online once, plus another 10 or so domains.

Anyway, my question

Who made post #1 and what was it?
