Alright, I’m running a fairly large Forum community. There’s a few requirements to the forums I’m using (IPB 3.0.x) posted below. I’d like something with unmetered *if such a thing is possible* bandwidth, but don’t care about the space (So long as it can hold 5 gigs or so). Also need a database that doesn’t have a limit (I think anyways, not entirely sure how this works still….perhaps someone can explain how forums use databases? meh, doesn’t really matter I suppose.) Anyways, we always have at least 5 users online, and up to around a few hundred at any given time. A host that supports that kind of traffic is a must. Also must be a month-to-month plan. I don’t like the ‘pay up front for 12 months’ thing, because I’m stuck and if I try to cancel all of the fees come up and such, just not the way I work sorry.

Alright, so the IPB requirements for those who don’t already know:

1. PHP 5.2
2. -GD3 Extension
3. -SPL Extention
4. -DOM XML Extension
5. -JSON Extension
6. MSQL 5.0+

Any help appreciated!
