Who's paying for these forums?

A thought just popped into my head...

Seeing as Phoenix Online currently has no revenue stream, who's actually paying for the bandwidth and domain name for this website?

Just wondering.

We actually found Graham's chest.

LOL! Wouldn't that be awesome... Although I think someone recently brought up the fact that such a chest would lead to catastrophic inflation as well, which isn't so awesome.

Yup, with infinite money, there would only be a forever rising inflation rate, if not a solid 100% inflation rate. So it would probably be best for Graham to limit his economic standards, but where would one even begin to start when in possession of an endless supply of currency?

I had a KQ1 flashback when I read this. back then I was under the impression that the chest in KQ1 was referring to the upper body (I ran dowstairs to ask my parents what 'chest' meant and they said that) so I was totally dazzled, looking for something with ribs and such wondering why they would want it.

And now again, Graham's chest, why would you want that!  :o

Ponders the concept of a bottomless "body" chest...

I assume one or more of the team members are personally paying for it. Either that or there's a KQ benefactor out there. :)

Is there a particular reason you're asking?

(generally speaking, I think the financial details are probably best kept private)

Just curiosity, nothing more. I understand if it's confidential.

I just think it's cool that someone's actually footing the bills purely for the love of King's Quest.

The prices are reasonable, and we do intend to do more than just TSL, so it's worth it. :) But yes, I think we'll be keeping that info otherwise confidential.
