For a couple of reasons, I'm becoming more disenchanted with my web hosting company (could the main one be that they charged my credit card without consulting me first?  ), so I've been investigating different hosting plans. I came across this one. It almost seems too good to be true--which probably means that it is.  http://www.alwayswebhosting.com/ Anyone hear of them?

If you want to run an UBB on there, this is the wrong host for you.. Because this host is sadly not allowing ubb's:
Out of their FAQ:
Can I run a bulletin board forum with my account?
You sure can! We allow clients to use any PHP-powered bulletin board systems, such as the phpBB, VBulletin, Xoops.org, and other bulletin board systems without any problems.
CGI-script powered bulletin board systems are not allowed on our servers, due to excessive demands on server resources that can degrade performance for other hosting clients. Namely, ikonBoard is BANNED from use on our servers.

Well, nuts! That kinda ticks me off. Why? I went over to webhostingtalk.com and put in a request for hosting plans, and I specifically said this: quote:
The centerpiece of my site right now is the UBB messageboard. If you cannot support this messageboard on your server--if down the road, increased traffic because of this messageboard might cause problems--I don't want to do business with you. I currently have more than 1000 signed up for the board--with more coming on board each day
:rolleyes: I hate people who waste my time!
