Moving over to jcink ?.

Hello,

 

Currently my board is on proboards, but after looking through the directory and reading through some of the posts, it looks like people like jcink better and I was wondering if moving hosts to there would be better. It's not a big deal membership wise as there's only myself and another member who have even posted, but I don't like having to do the work again. (I didn't know about jcink when I made the board, I chose proboards because I'd used it in the past.) I don't like moving hosts either as I've done it in the past and seems to take something away from the site.

 

One problem I've had with proboards is that I have to use outside image hosts store images and I recently found out that the image host I'm using doesn't like users hotlinking (this seems odd, for an image hosting site, because why else would you use them?

 

thanks

alexsunny

What @SithLordOfSnark said. PLUS! You need to weigh the pros and cons of the platforms that you're on and considering moving to.

 

Yes a ton of people love Jcink but they have their reasons, just as I have mine for using IPS exclusively. Free Jcink have the same restrictions as Proboards so there is no advantage there unless you are planning to upgrade to not free jcink.

 

As for image hosts, they don't have to allow hotlinking unfortunately to be able to host. However I would recommend these guys:

https://nickpic.host/

They are free and built for RPers by RPers.

 

At the end of the day though? You have to do what makes you happy. Yes Jcink may get you more members but are they the sort of members that you want?
