thelerner Posted November 2, 2012 When the board was updated a month or two ago it became very slow. For the last few weeks I'd move to a section and it would take 20 or 30 seconds, often I'd leave the board to search somewhere else. Â Since the last update a few days ago, the board has been responsive again. Yay. If its more expensive to keep the forum up on a new server consider doing a pledge drive. The board was missed when it was down. Â Yours Michael 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sean Posted November 3, 2012 thanks! Â i'm just really glad and relieved that (hopefully) things have stabilized again. Â Â admittedly, though, costs are higher now, yes. i dedicated a vps for this forum alone, about $50/month. if anyone has a hole in their pocket i added a one-time $3 donation option, along with the other monthly subscription options. (or you can paypal me directly as [email protected].) Â sean 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sean is only suggesting a one-time $3 donation option, to help pay for the costs to keep this site technically viable.  If you can't afford to donate, please continue to frequent this site as you have, and those of us who can will endeavor to make up the difference.  AugustLeo  PS: Sean had nothing to do with this post. I donated what I could, and thought that I would ask others to do the same, if they can. Metta. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aetherous Posted November 7, 2012 Once I land a job, I'll donate appropriately. $50 a month is a lot! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cat Pillar Posted November 8, 2012 I'll be happy to help once my next paycheck comes around. Â This site has benefited me more than I can could ever repay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
