I know I'm not going back to 4chan. i only came for the great pony generals. Now that they're gone, I have no reason to go there. This image used to rally us together. I hope this site can become the new hub for epic pony threads!

It's not a DoS... if it was, our host would have at least mentioned it by now. They handle these things well.

BUT, although they are a good host, they're more geared towards smaller sites, and we're quickly outgrowing them. That's probably the cause of the spurious timeouts/SQL errors.

I'm looking into getting better hosting right now. (and either getting another job or robbing a bank)

>>	Lemming!!HkZwOvAQV3 11/02/27(Sun)12:29 No. 581 >>576 yeah that's what I kinda figured VM hosts only go so well, for so long... donation drive might be helpful

>>	Thorn!6trJvEMBDA 11/02/27(Sun)19:45 No. 618 Well, I've got hardly any income at the moment, but I was able to chuck some money into the donation bin. 5 bucks ain't much, but if enough other people kick in even that much then I think we can pull through fine.
