Hey,
I'm not sure what section to put this in, but the internet section sounded good. I'm thinking of putting one up (not computer related) and have no idea what I'm looking at/getting myself into.
I was wondering if someone knew how much it cost to run a forum similar to this one in setup and categories, but larger - say 120,000-200,000 members and 3-4000 logged in at any one time with peaks of 6,000 - any base estimates?
If I go with a specific server/host, can I upgrade it easily and cheaply as more members join?
Does anyone have any suggestions on hosts or places to look at to learn more about it - I'm having a hard time trying to google helpful information?
Thanks,
Matt
