I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

Tom, you do understand that Fangeek, meaning me, doesn't actually have access to the server?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Whoops, sorry. I meant our ISP when I said Fangeek.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Have I mentioned recently that you guys are all awfully cool? I'm still stuck in the mindset of over a year ago, which is "Holy crap, we have our own board. These people started with nothing and they made an entire board." I live in awe.

Whoops, sorry.

No problemo. I just wanted to make sure everyone realized that I don't actually have access to the server itself. It would be much easier if I did.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

In this as in so many other things...

Begins plotting takeover of the universe by a brilliant, foamy snark of Buffistae.

Our wings are not tired

So who wants to give the Buffistas a nice new Xserve and the a place to hook it up to some bandwidth?

Someone?

Anyone?

Pretty Please?

You're saying that we need either a patron, a lottery win, or a sugar daddy?

Hell, I could use one of those three...

What are the usage parameters we're looking for?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

The problem, as I understand it, isn't "usage parameters." It's finding a host who's willing to work with us to figure out what bug, at their end, could be causing our connections to max out. My guess, and it's just a guess, is that there are some obscure MySQL/PHP parameters that need to be tweaked, but it's not stuff that we have access to. Only the root user can get at them.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

This problem has driven me to the edge of madness, and I'm dipping my toes in its rancid tide.
