What Is Trap17? What Is The Nature Of Trap17?
I'm new to trap17, but I've heard nothing but positive and glowing reviews about it, from coworkers, friends and family alike. I was interested in hosting at trap17, but when I searched Trap17 for reviews, I found a peculiar page (trap17watch.buddhasdomain.com), that said Trap17 was a BAD thing. Ive heard nothing but positive reviews about Trap17's forums, but when I investigated the website furthur, I found several pieces of evidence about why not to use trap17's posting. I was
New Custom Bbcodes Called [google] [define] [imgalign]
Hello Trap17 members, After much needed tests we are happy to introduce 3 more bbcodes (yeah~). I know, I know it's not that exciting. My observation is that some tutorials involving graphics may need [b]IMGALIGN[/b] to add an extra personal touch to your own. Furthermore, to help and serve members in general, [b]GOOGLE[/b] and [b]DEFINE[/b] were also added to aid the reply process--if there is any The first is [b]GOOGLE[/b] Using this bbcode is simple.

Silly Mistake In Awarding Credits
Hello Members, It had come to my notice that we have distributed the credits to our members who have posted 12 hours before the ceremony time. I apologize for this mistake. I had to take a long drive on that very same day and I had requested Yratorm to open the topic at 5:30 IST PM instead of AM. The credits would be added to the members again. Initially, I was ignoring this issue because I didn't expect so much of dissatisfaction by some members. Also, I have been working on a new cluste
Credit System For 2.1.4 Update :)
Hi Team and Members, I am trying my best to complete the Credit System for Invision version 2.1.4. Managing ComputingHost and especially looking after the servers is very much time consuming. [quote][b]Why is it taking soo much time, When you had it ready for 2.0.X?[/b] The update is taking a lot of time because 2.1.X has a totally new framework. There are new classes and the old codes don't match in their regular position. Secondly, I usually use Structured approach rather than Object Or
My Best Friend (derek Alain) Had An Accident
Hi Members, Today at around 5:50 PM, unfortunately my best friend "Derek" had a serious accident. It was raining heavily and he urgently had to drop his friend home. I took my bike to fetch his friend and On his way, a car taking an un-turn hit him at 90 degree throwing him right on his head. His front skull took the hit soo badly that it literally cracked and his brain was visible.. He was rushed to a nearby hospital. Very few people dared to help him due to the blood and also for

Forum Upgrade To Version 2.2.1
Hello Members, Trap17 Forums have been upgraded to Version 2.2.1.<br>During this upgrade, We had to suffer database curroptions as the automated upgrade process failed to execute the database queries. We had two options. To continue ignoring the error messages or re-do the installation with manual update of SQL. We thought, it is better to ensure a proper installation by compromizing few posts than risking the forum's integrity. --Please update us with any errors you encounter.-- T

Changes to Invision Gallery was made today after finding out TrueFusion and mine were bombarded with spam comments. From now on, GUESTS are not allowed to view/comment on your album/image unless they register with Trap17.com.

Please use the REPORT button to notify any spam and inappropriate comments left to your album(s). Only admins can modify the gallery.
Hey Guys, Sorry, I have been really busy lately... I couldn't even celebrate Trap17 Anniversary (which is still pending and shall not be forgotten :-) From past 2-3 weeks, I was busy with ComputingHost Servers and managing the billing issues due to the crappy WHMauto software.

Hello Members! We have upgraded the Trap17 Forum Board version to the latest one 2.0.4. The good part is, Things are fine now. We are planning to install a new dedicated skin.

As a result members might notice a considerable improvement in the load times
Our veteran members remember the reputation points system. The reputation point was aside from hosting credit system that your fellow forum peers gave to build the trust. It was mainly to gain credibility of this person's advice, post and information. The new forum version 2.1.4 features RATING system. This is similar to the reputation points. But instead of evaluating members individually, the rating system will rate individual topic. This allows two key factors to happen in this forum: 1)
Appology To Avalon And Other Members For Gallery
Hey Guyz, Please accept my sincere appology for the IPB GALLERY screw up.. It was totally un-intentional but due to those numerous problems with the forum script. I decided to re-install the board. After 7 hours of non-stop upgrade process ... when I finally settled down to install GALLERY, it screwed up.

Trap17 Forums Now Hosted On New Dual Server
Hi, We have moved Trap17 forums to a new server. You might ask, why this new server when we already had a dedicated server for the forums. The answer is, server DELTA was lagging behind and we needed something more powerful. Because of which, we setup a new DUAL server for Trap17. We tried our best to optimize it and I hope, the forums are smooth again. You might have observed a small downtime recently and wierd results with the MEMBERS ONLINE statistics. That was because, we used IP forward
