vipers = speed

No, I agree with Viper D

The VCA needs to consider some new servers/internet connections/etc. Sometimes it is so slow here it isn't even worth it. Sometimes the site is just completely down. Happens to me quite frequently.

I did notice that during all the drama last week about admins not paying attention to the members... complaints were listed, among which, someone whined about wanting more emoticons.

...at least we got the emoticons

I Hear ya.. It make the site sometimes not worth going to. I mean, waiting 30 seconds or more for a page to load is ridiculous.

I have a feeling it's a little deeper. Perhaps the hoster of this website doesn't want to give up the nice reoccuring contract, work, etc.. (Of course this is all speculation)

But dayum, gentlemen.. CAN WE GET THE SPEED UP ON THIS SITE PLEASE.. ??

Mine is so slow some of the time, my page will actually time out. But 90% of the time my speed is pretty good. I have a DSL connection thats shared with my regular phone line for everyone's comparison to what they have/speeds they get

Whatever the reason is, how come none of the site admins/mods/whatever will tell us why this site is so slow sometimes? I made a post in the forum suggestions area a long time ago, and it was never answered there either. WHAT THE HELL'S THE DEAL??? Is it that big of a secret?

Sorry, must have missed it. No big secret. The site is fine for me, I'm on a cable modem, in the house it pops right up, in the shop, on a wireless connection, (I only get 48 Mbps as treh shop is pretty far from the house), it can be slow.

Can you please let me know the following:

Specific time it is slow - i.e. 8 AM to 10 AM
Type of connection - dial-up, cable, dsl, T-1, etc.
through a fire wall? (i.e. at work.......)
if home firewall, which mfg (hardware, software, or both)

Thanks in advance.

We moved one server (the one that hosts the regoinal sites) to the new operating system, but have not moved the Forums server yet.

Personally.....I'll get around to possibly doing my part when Viper D stops whining like a little baby. Constructive feedback is awesome....using the little "BS" flag and crying like a baby makes my ignore him.....like this......

I'd be happy to lend a helping hand or advice if it is desired.

I would need to know requirements and current limitations.

Feel free to PM me Vipermad. Owning a Data Center has it's perks.

My lil' ole 30 posts a year don't buy me much of a voice over here.

For what it's worth though, the use of "Prime-Time Television" as the standard for all posts to adhere to is a little beneath us elitist Viper owners.

Maybe Saturday Morning Cartoons would be more appropriate.

What Rockstar said!! He can hace free speach to, Jannie. Viper D is the BIGGEST whining baby I have yet to experience.

I'm going to fix some things and make the available to EVERYONE except Viper D!! LOL!!!

The job is your Viper D....just say the word. You can have your free SPEACH, just like me. :) If you paid me...then you could hold something over my head....but you DON'T. Do the letters K M A mean ANYTHING to you?

I'd add some smilies, the BS flag (which you are all too familiar with)...but you seem to have sucked up all the bandwidth with your rambling.

Quick....everyone meet in the secret Forum where Viper D isn't allowed (or would that be aloud???)!!!!

I have to admit I have cable modem connection and this site acts like I'm on an AOL connection over a phone line at certain times. Unfortunetly during those times, I just leave the site and I have all the speed necessary to pop up new websites instantly. Then try clicking back into the forums and I fall asleep waiting. So I end up going elsewhere instead of trying to navigate 3 screens to the Question/suggestion area.

"He can hace free speech to Janni"

What does that mean? Could you repost in English?
