Forums have been dieing off. Most traffic has moved to Facebook.

Despite low traffic, the bandwidth that the site consumes is actually very high due to visitors, spiders and spam.

The server host reduced the fee for me because I simply told him the site doesn't generate the income it once did. It's at the point where I don't have out of pocket expenses anymore at least. Or not much.

I've had cheaper hosts. You get what you pay for in terms of support.
