Default We think it's solved

After some sleepless nights and tons of work by our administrator Darrel and the outside IT expert, we think that TOTV is stable now. The tremendous increase in membership and daily traffic caused some internal problems with the server. I don't know exactly what they did, but we have been told that it's fixed until sometime off in the distant future when the next huge influx of new members causes an overload. Then we have to add another server, some more memory and some other stuff that I didn't understand.

Always scary to have to turn things over to an expert who waves that magic wand to make things better. Seems as though it worked in this case!!! Congrats and thanks again for all the effort!

And here we all thought Tony fixed everything.................

I hope so too. Great job.

Every system needs to be upgraded at some point in time.

Admins, we do appreciate all you do. The most recent posts that appear at the bottom of the thread has disappeared. Is that my problem or a general problem?

I miss them too, but you can find them at the bottom of the page in the "Top 10" stats. Exactly the same thing, just a different look. We eliminated the other style to save some bandwith. They are also available at the top in the blue bar under "new Posts."

But..... er... um... how did you get out of the room with no doors, tony?

So you took the same route as the WI Dems, huh?

O.K, not don't tell anybody.

There is a hallway next to my room. The trick is to get into the hallway, and I have a secret way to get in.

I start to walk around the perimeter of my room, faster, and faster. Then I trot. Then run. Pretty soon I am all in.

They I rest a few minutes and just walk down that hall.
