Mapbox tiles: exceeded free usage

(1/3) > >>

Jim:
Important: if you are using any of the Mapbox tiles, please switch to something else ASAP.  We have exceeded our free usage limit and I've already incurred charges for the current billing period and we're only 1/3 through it.  Mapbox entries have been commented out of our configuration files for now.

Markkos1992:
Is it weird for me to ask what you are referring to?   

oscar:
Mapbox map tiles are among the options usually available in our Highway Browser and Waypoint Editor, at least. It looks like Jim has removed those options, at least for now.

Jim:
I think they need to be gone for good.  It looks like there's no option to say "serve as many free tiles as you can and then cut off the account if we exceed".  Instead, it just rolls over to billing.  We've incurred $5 in expenses just today and this is after I removed the option.  This has to be people who have previously loaded and selected these tiles.  It looks like I need to delete the account or ask for a volunteer to put their credit card on it.

froggie:
A pity.  Mapbox was the only entity that combined OSM data with a satellite image.  Worked pretty well for list development.
