Still, during peak times the server is under stress. With a record level of activity and a growing membership, we need to really expand our capacity. I just had a second conference call with the experts from Rackspace (our hosting company) and we're preparing a plan to do just this...
Screw 2GB, go all the way and add a whole 2TB MAN!! DO EET!!! The server will be so fast, all our computers will explode because it's giving us the information at such a high rate of speed. It'll be like, I open my web browser and CC has already taken the liberty of logging me in, taken my turns and has begun on the posting already.
Thanks Lack, its a good call and progressive. If this was simple fix I very much believe it would have been taken care of, but a simple fix it is not...
For those of you posting here, try and add something of use rather than a post count (being on topic might help too...)
JR (gonna call you honey dude i think) you are right, we pay for a service, and have a right to expect that service, The problems which are ongoing are being addressed, but there is a point where one has to consider whether the service is capable or beyond their capabilities.
I really enjoy this site, and greatly enjoy freestyle games, but I have been frustrated/disappointed over the last few weeks with interruptions and slow downs. Please note: I actually think I may have gained points with the lags, but I really would rather have the competition than the unfair gain.
Again,Lack I know the difficulties, I have been there twice...but it is important to let us know that things are progressing towards a solution..Please!!
My two cents worth (if its worth that much hehe)
