I use 1and1 hosting...
With the gay 100 MB SQL storage
And im starting to worry that im going to run out, what would be the best way to free up some?
Ive moved my attachments to file system if that did anything...

I have arcade scores saved to the SQL database, Im not sure how much that sucks up but any ideas? :eek:

My best suggestion - get away from 1&1 -- I have heard nothing but bad things about them. Take a look here vBulletin Forum Hosting (http://www.vbulletin-faq.com/web-hosting.htm) This list was put together using reviews from here, vB.com, vb.org and other sources.

Not really. Its not a simple thing to do.

Transferrig isnt that hard, and sooner or later, you'll need to do it.

I have to agree with Joey; 1and1's hosting isn't good for much more than static pages and a blog or two.

Really all you have to do is export the database from 1and1. The new host would probably import it for you free of charge.

At any rate make sure you set the arcade to auto-prune the scores every week or two that should shave off some space.
