I have a few questions - with the usual apologies if these points have been raised before:

1) What is the total capacity of the BBS Server?
2) How much of that capacity is used at present?
3) At what rate is the spare capacity being used up?
4) Are attachments retained for ever - if not on what basis are they eventually deleted?
5) Ditto pictures in the Gallery
6) Ditto old threads
7) What is the largest attachment size (and in BBS history what was the largest attachment)?
8) Is there any way of changing the expression 'could of' and 'would of' into 'could have' and would have' respectively?
9) Er...
10) That's it.

1) What is the total capacity of the BBS Server?
In terms of processing power or disk space? We have dual 70 gig disk drives - the real limit is processing power

19% of the primary disk is used:) The database is about 2.5GB, gallery 5GB
3) At what rate is the spare capacity being used up?
slowly
4) Are attachments retained for ever - if not on what basis are they eventually deleted?
forever
5) Ditto pictures in the Gallery
forever
6) Ditto old threads
forever
7) What is the largest attachment size (and in BBS history what was the largest attachment)?
There is a 1MB upper limit
8) Is there any way of changing the expression 'could of' and 'would of' into 'could have' and would have' respectively?
yes -
9) Er...

yes -
Without screwing up an expression such as:
"My poor grammar could offend James"?

Just include the trailing space in the match and replacement text.
