I was dying not being able to get on

Its like crack.... I was having withdrawal already.

[rueful]

i know. but seriously, how the heck else am i supposed to waste my evening? Ive been soo bored. And i went to the fire house, no one was there, no answers, and kept trying flamefans every couple minutes. i probbaly delayed its return a bit by doing that huh

[El Scorcho]

You're welcome.






The donate button is at the bottom of the page.

[rueful]

so obviously the bandwith was the said problem, but like more details of what happened?

[Th3rd]

Seriously guys we gotta donate or we're going to have ad's all over the freaking screens or we're going to charge SJ a penny a post

[rueful]

i was seriosly dying and im probably no where near as addicted as others. I resorted to the fan page on facebook, then to twitter, trying to see if sly fox was updating on there anything about the page. if you got followed by some random person its me.

There aren't really any more details to it. The site has a bandwidth cap. Too many visitors (thanks, Seth) = too much data transferred = FlameFans offline.

All better now.

Effing Seth Curry.

[rueful]

is there a way to increase the bandwidth cap? should seth pay for it? i vote yes

I just kept clicking on my flamefans shortcut every 5 minutes or so. I felt like Jeff Daniels in Pleasantville where Bud doesn't show up so he just keeps wiping the counter until the paint comes off because he doesn't know what else to do. Exactly like that.

[SuperJon]

Have Coach K pay for it.

I'll be in Durham this weekend. Looks like Coach K will be as well. If I bump into him I'll give it a shot.

I like the way you think! I prefer a 12ga

[rueful]

and scorcho, I guess more my question was how did it get fixed? do you purchase more bandwidth? or did we just have towait until 12? i dont even remember now if thats when it came back up

[El Scorcho]

and scorcho, I guess more my question was how did it get fixed? do you purchase more bandwidth?

Technically I stole some extra from the other folks who share server rental space with FlameFans. Thankfully I happen to know all of these people and that they won't care...so long as their sites don't go down. *fingers crossed until the 1st*

[rueful]

i guess i have some more questions.

Have we ever come close to using all our bandwidth in a month before?

Actually the rest of the questions are mute if the answer to that one is no

[rueful]

and, what happens when seth announces where hes going and everyone floods here and we use all the borrowed bandwidth.

maybe its because of times like now when theres quite a bit of members on, but almost twice the amount of guests on as well

[Hold My Own]

rueful is asking all of these questions b/c he's going to financially back the entire site...right? I mean you wouldnt be asking all these questions and no donate ANYTHING RIGHT?!?!

[rueful]

yeah im going to, but its not much. i can commit to like a certain amount every month rather than the one time gift

[El Scorcho]

Have we ever come close to using all our bandwidth in a month before?

Yes. We've hit our bandwidth limit a few times before.

and, what happens when seth announces where hes going and everyone floods here and we use all the borrowed bandwidth.l

I have hopefully borrowed enough to get us through the 1st, regardless. I wouldn't worry about it too much, though. Generally speaking, FlameFans finds a way to stay online.
