Does it let you modify that? If so, you could have a "by joining proboards, you signed theirs. By posting here, you sign ours or we ban you" type of thing...
Definitely not a red flag...
ALSO I did some quick math. 1,000,000 page views a month sounds like a lot, but it's ~33,000 page views/day. That equates to 1,375 page views per hour (23/minute). Seems like a lot. But ajax requests (which happen all over the place on proboards) count too. Every single time a browser sends a request from the current page checking for more replies, or checking for new threads, or anything else, it counts as a page view. So theoretically, the majority of these page hits are likely from ajax, and you're looking at significantly fewer pages that could actually be viewed.
I'm sorry, but when $20 VPS could easily (without breaking a sweat) handle that load, I'm not paying proboards $200/month for it. They are so freakin sleazy.
