When I started the wiki 12+ years ago I decided that it would be free for all for as long as I could make it so. Over the years I have got it to the point where it takes very little time and little money to keep it alive. It had grown to the point where it receives about 400 visitors a day or if your oldschool, 26,000 "hits".</div><div><br></div><div>This is a graph of 24 hours of requests:</div><div><br></div><div><div><img src="content://com.samsung.android.email.attachmentprovider/1/233/RAW" alt="image.png" width="562" height="367" onmouseover="imageMousePointerUpdate(true)" onmouseout="imageMousePointerUpdate(false)" name="com_samsung_android_email_attachmentprovider_1_233_RAW_1587086893343"><br></div></div><div>Even with this load the current hosting hardly feels a thing. <br></div><div><br></div><div>
I don't think of it as 'mine'. I'm just the caretaker. The wiki would be nothing without the hard work all you guys do updating and adding content. So as it stands I am more than happy to keep radiowiki up and running, free and advertisement free just like I said I would 12+ years ago :D. </div><div><br></div><div>If that ever changes in the future and I was unable to keep the lights on then I of course would come back to you all and we would as a group work out a way forward. </div><div> <br></div><div>I would also like to thank our team of list moderators and wiki mods in reality these guys do way more day to day stuff than me.</div><div></div><div><br></div><div>Stay safe,</div><div><br></div><div>Chris021</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Apr 16, 2020 at 6:30 PM James Nicholson <<a href="mailto:jayswipe@gmail.com">jayswipe@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Fantastic work Chris and thank you for putting in the effort.
