Hosting in Sweden/HK.

[SuicidalMedia]

You're trying to say that you can't run your forum normally? Can you explain the problems you are experiencing? I'm pretty sure you can run a a warez forum normally anywhere in the world as long as you're cooperating.

If by normally you mean that the site loads fine and have good loading speeds then no.

Dude, we're discussing about copyright problems not about site load time.

[Effective]

nah I haven't had any copyright problems. the reason I made this topic was because I'm not satisfied with my current host.

Just find a new host in the same country, no need to go for a ISP in Sweden or Hong Kong.

[Effective]

I just thought it would be better to choose a host in Sweden/HK as a long term solution.

If you're getting less that 100,000 UV per day, then there is no point looking.

lol why ? if my site isn't even loading most of the times or is loading too slow,how do you think I'll be able to get that number of UV per day ?

you know you can even use USA hosting. just make sure you do daily backups incase it does get taken down. I know many warez forums who operated using free USA hosting. They obviously don't submit to DDL's and they are more community based warez forums. Examples

that's not my site btw. Just using it as an example but they've been operating since 2008 with 10,000+ members and they've been using zetaboards and now it's 2011.... 3 years and they are still using zetaboards.

using zetaboards won't get you far.

btw I just asked PRQ about how do they deal with DMCA. they said they don't care about it at all. but again,they are expensive.
