Buffistas

It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

t sob!

And I do NOT post that much. Well, usually. Today I'm bored.

I don't like how I always have to double back and make sure I spelled

Hm. You could try to remember Suela instead, would that help? But not Connie because then you'll confuse everyone.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

I know that it was discussed to have people not just rest on the message center, because the refresh, of course, uses up resources. Could this be part of the problem? I try not to rest there, but sometimes do anyway, and I'm sure everyone else is like me, cuz, well, I sure am.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Only if it's on.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

all you need to do is set your refresh to 0 minutes, right?

I just close the window if I think I'm going to be gone for a bit. Not difficult.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

What about downloading an archived file?

The files in the archive are no longer in the database, so there is no server load with them. The only cost to the system is the bandwidth used during the download.

Thanks for all the fish.

And bandwidth is not an issue right now?

Correct.

eta: In fact, now that I look at it, even the quote on the Archives page has been static since day one, so as near as I can tell, it never made any calls to the database at all.

Thanks for all the fish.

Okay. Anything I can do to help with the archiving of closed threads?
