Site Connection

I have it set up that I am logged in forever so I don’t realy know about that part. Loading the boards hasn’t been a problem for me.

@rjclayton:

Yeah, once I’m on the site, it seems to fly now that I think about it.  But just initially loading the boards and then logging into the boards always seems to be a real dog…

Maybe your browser cache is getting cleared too often.

Maybe, I will look into that.  Thanks.

was the site down all afternoon?  I couldn’t connect from work…

I was unable to log in for about 6 hours today.  I have sent a not to DJensen to inquire what happened.

Still, the new site has been more reliable than the old one…

Where did you send the message? I didn’t get it.

I’m not sure what happened. At 5am PDT the server locked up. I’m still trying too figure it out.

Mod Forum

The exclusive Mod forum … :-(

Why does that draw a smiley face?  I’m sure glad I don’t have to deal with all the crap the mods have to deal with in there…

There were some threads I was keeping tabs on that were moved there … never got to see them again

Probably a good reason for them disappearing…

Probably

But it sucks when they do that.

When I became a mod on another site in a previous lifetime, reading through all the “quaritined” threads really provided some insight into what was going on behind the scenes.

Then again, being a mod is a thankless task that I would not willing take up again.

By “insight” do you mean your own personal soap opera  :-D

Being a mod means you live in a soap opera.

It’s like being a police officer.  You get to spend your day dealing with only the most interesting people.

I’m pretty content to not be modding anymore.  Dealing with that ass AS/SHP was enough, in addition to the constant second-guessing etc. 
It was good that i had good back-up by Yanny/DM/DF.

Over the past several days I have begun having site connection issues… worse than previously experienced.

Is this a short term issue?  Or is site traffic just that high now?

What days? It should have only been twice. But the two times it happened it was bad.

This evening, and 1 or 2 days ago.

Yup. I’m working on it.

Short term, the next time this happens it should only last for 5-10 minutes; as opposed to 1 hour.

Long term, I make the problem go away.
