Re: Poll: Would you be willing to donate to keep HHF online?

Huge thanks for the overwhelmingly positive response. We will open the new subforum with full details on how to donate and include everyone who has responded here after the upgrade on Monday.

Re: Hua Hin Forum software/server upgrades

The forum and server are experiencing some technical issues so there may be some outages and in the extreme, we may have to shut it down. It has been a long time coming but the forum has had zero revenue for the past 6-7 years so there is zero budget for things like servers, security, and software m...

Addressing the complaints about the rules: This forum is often considered to be a source of information/news/updates etc. which is why we like to try and keep things on topic (control the flow, c...

Re: Poll: Would you be willing to donate to keep HHF online?

We are not charging for membership.

Like all businesses, it has overheads with the primary one being a server/hosting bill which needs to be paid annually. There are also ongoing technical and s...

Re: Possible to up the attachments to 1-2mb?
