Much as the humanitarian me cares deeply about you all, and wants to put you first ... the money grabbing capitalist side of me won't let that happen.

Well I guess you have to pay for all these big houses and flashy new monster widescreen TV's somehow!

I do.

I own a web directory and until recently also ran a web design company, so I have my own dedicated web server for all the hosting I needed.

I still run the web directory [www.qango.com] and host a few remaining web clients (don't do the design work anymore) so it was easy to piggy-back the CC forums onto the server.

Cheers,
Shaun

I do.

I feel a bit guilty now.
Thanks for doing this, but how much do you have to pay out of your own pocket?

In case Shaun's being a bit shy/modest, I can tell you that the bandwidth costs of a site like this are non-trivial. Granted he may be using 'spare' capacity within a hosting package, the fact remains that he could be on a cheaper package without it.
