Actually its quite the opposite as astahost came online after trap17 and so astahost is more like trap17 but more technical and more detail. However, I have to disagree with some of these posts that trap17 is more general. I would say it has become more astahost, since the quality of the posts and more importantly the quality of the topics have improved in the last year. Just like trap the longer your posts are the more credits you receive; tutorials are a great source of credits **hint hint***.

Yeah that is true, long and good information filled posts that is .

Which reminds me, I may just have some useful information if I can remember a couple of things that might not already be up here.

Thanks for reminding me lol.

I'd have to say that, after a quick look through Trap17's forums, they're definitely more general. Note that "general" doesn't mean "low quality", it just means there's a broader range of topics for people to talk about that are somewhat less specialised. That's just my opinion, though.

Either way, I personally prefer Astahost simply because I found it first and signed up here for hosting without really looking at Trap17. I'm only really here to talk about tech-y things anyway, as if I want to talk about anything else I don't want it tainted with a need to keep my hosting credits up. Here I can get all of my hosting questions answered, as well as other related topics, whereas on Trap17 I'd have to dilute my posting with slightly less focused threads.

Still, either way it's down to personal preference.

Yeah, I was told at some point earlier on, it was just a little easier around Trap17, less technical based somewhat.
