Site being suuuuuuuper slow this afternoon for anyone else?
Simon: Captain... why did you come back for us? Mal: You're on my crew. Simon: Yeah, but you don't even like me. Why'd you come back? Mal: You're on my crew. Why we still talking about this?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Yeah, I've had some issues.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think it may be because of admin cleanup--DX, are you cleaning out the filk mailbox?

It's possible that me just going to see how much email was in the filk mailbox slowed us down that much. How incredibly painful.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I don't mind captcha as long as it's decipherable. I recently gave up on registering for something because after the third try I still couldn't figure out what the captcha was supposed to be.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Kitten captcha, maybe? Of course I'm already registered so it won't affect me one way or the other.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Tom? What are your opinions of our server's health?
I think we need more RAM.
I also think rebooting the server would help a lot in the short term, though.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think we need more RAM.
One of our two upgrade options takes us to 1GB instead of 512MB. That will cost us $40 more per month than what we have now. The other option that keeps us at 512 and takes us from a 2.6GHz Celeron to a 2.5GHz P4 is an increase of $10/month.
What do you recommend?
As for rebooting, do you want to take that in your hands? You're better suited than I am to catch anything that didn't come up right automatically.

Seriously looking at other vendors.

Is tomorrow morning (around 7:00am EDT) OK?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Seriously looking at other vendors.
Not my call, but, Yeah, this. I don't know the details of our current hosting, but that much more every month for a one-time install of a stick of RAM and/or a version of PHP that's coming up on 4 years old now?
