[Serusers] Integrity of Forum

Fri Mar 11 03:33:21 CET 2005

This is getting a little out of control here.  When did this become a forum
for advertising services for payment ?  I thought this was a discussion
forum for help ?  It seems that people in here seem to think that when they
have solution working for themselves it they should sell the services based
on GNU. For that matter here is my offer to anyone that needs a solution

Freeporn site with evey VOIP account monthly payment of only 69.69

People that have a right to offer service for payment here should be those
that acutually contribute programming for SER or its modules.

Just my 2 cents.

Our company will allow you to colo a 1RU server at no cost if you do this in
one of the following locations:

* Using one main DB server and multiple nodes is a solution.
