If you paid donations, then why hide behind sockpuppet ? I mean there is no need to have sockpuppet to voice your genuine query. Unless ofcourse you have some no good intentions for starting some mess. It socks to see sockpuppet ya know.
Where did all the money go to?

Do checkout hosting fees of softlayer dedicated servers for 2 years. Do get info from mouser about two servers that DC owns and the size of dedicated servers( space and bandwidth). Once you get all this info then come and rant the same negative tune in two different threads.

Do you realise what it costs to host a site of this magnitude? It's hardly free.

Sure tell me why we need such a beefy ($300/month?) server for just:
175 Guests, 24 Users (2 Hidden) Users active in past 30 minutes:
I can host such a site (which is basically now a low-activity forum) for $50 a month on a VPS, that is $600 a year in server costs.
Really correct me if I'm wrong, kindly give me an example of a reputable $50 VPS that cannot handle the load or traffic.
