Well, me gotz a few Qs 
I signed up for x10's service when another free server went offline for 24 hours due to low memory. Reading up on reviews I wish I had seen before I signed up, I found that my previous server had a history full of instability and downtime, and I decided that me and my members of my forum couldn't live with that. So a friend recommended x10 to me, and here I am obviously.
What I'm doing with my account is constructing the third redo of my forum, due to database export problems on ECF2 and restrictions on ECF1.
Now, I'm fine setting up a forum and such, I just need some questions answered about a setting and a domain name.
First, the setting:
In MyBB, enabling GZip compression will speed up page loads, however I have read that it adds to the server load, and I don't want to get my account suspended for such.
What I need to know is what the ideal settings are for GZip in MyBB, because I can adjust the level of compression if need be. The levels are 1-9.
Anyone had experience on which one is safe? I'm expecting 500-1000 members on my forum someday. Currently I have 12 or 14, most of which are on ECF2. I am expecting more in the coming year.
Ok, now the domain name:
I have seen the link on the main page for the co.cc domains, however I want to clarify how I should configure it. I can configure it in two ways: To redirect to the x10.mx site, or redirect and hide the real url. I read something in the rules that mentioned proxies, in my mind it means redirecting domain names aren't allowed. If there is any nameserver information I can also configure the co.cc domain that way, but I have yet to see any.
Hope my confusion can be cleared up a bit
