Average bandwidth? - AzNFlare - 08-05-2010

First of all, I'm not sure where this goes so I thought this may be the best place to put it.

I want to know what the average bandwidth for a forum that hold about 500ish members posting about 10 posts a day.

Hell. 5k posts a day.
Really would depend who views it i guess and how big the post. Images etc.
But could be crap loads.

DAMINK™ beat me to it.

It depends how many attachments you have, how image heavy the site is.

Haha dam maybe i got my calculations wrong. Ok, um.. say about 500posts a day in total. And it wasn't very heavy with images and attachments.

My forum has used 8.6 gig this month lmao. But i rely on loads of images and vids and i host those.
But look a forum of that size would be safe with 10 gig or so a month IHMO anyway.
Some will say far smaller. Thats just MHO is all.
