Re: Slow Site ..

maybe the people who donate more then 5 get a preferred slot once they log in. that would encourage me to donate, especially during the season. all you would have to do is have a bare bones login page so you could when the server is full

Re: Slow Site ..

Someone had an idea to put a banner link for paypal right on the error page as well as the main.

YOu can't see the main page if you can't get on cause of the error screen.
I know it's not a immediate solution, but it'll help defer costs in the upcoming year if it's right there when you try and come on.

Re: Slow Site ..

We have just placed an order for a server upgrade that should double (at least) our capacity. This will cause a little future downtime (you'll be warned of the specific time) but will give us plenty of upgrade options in the future, and get us 2x the capacity right from the get-go.

Thanks for your patience while we get things rolling.

-Brandon

Re: Slow Site ..

Since Google is becoming an important sponsor in FIRST, maybe, if we ask nicely, they are willing to hose Chief Delphi Forum for us.

Imagine this site as smooth as www.google.com even if 1 million user are viewing it at the same time.

Just a thought. You can always imagine, right?

Google could do this without blinking an eye.
