No. Most of the HTML we're looking at right now was originally generated by somebody working for whichever company produces the BB software we're currently using.

KoolBear and Sup are the guys who first decided to set up the DescentBB. KoolBear was the one who first hosted the site in 1998, and who paid for the hosting for many years after that. Sup ran day-to-day operations for a while, and then handed control over to Topher (technical) and Xciter (policy decisions). Sickone now pays the hosting costs.

How much does it cost to maintain this? I mean how much does Sickone lay out for us every year?
