Thanks!

Whatever was done with the server recently has made a huge difference in my FORT productivity! Since June, I have not been able to log in to the FORT home page. I usually had to enter through the archive index (I think that's what it's called), then back track to the current forums. I can now log right in AND can maneuver through screens faster than ever. I know that I didn't do anything on my end, so it must be the FORT. Anyway, Thanks!

We're halfway moved onto a new server, which is helping quite a bit. We need to get all the way moved, but it'll take about 10 hours of downtime all at once, and I haven't been able to find a reasonable window that doesn't require me to stay up all night

*gasp* 10 hours of straight downtime!?!!!?!?!?!?!

John, I think the site's working smashingly as is!

LOL Broadway you just can't stand to be without your FORT fix.
The chat room is always fun - you all need to get it bookmarked before the
10 hour time of doom

Chatroom is fun during a blackout. (we even managed to get a counting subroom so we could get our FIX).

Broadway - I LOVE your new avatar. where did you find it???

Just out of curiousity, John: does the system keep track of posts for certain hours or days? I'd be interested to know which days get the most action, or which times of day (although I'd assume primetime).

Umm Sunday's are pretty slow usually.

[mkwdood]

I'm pretty sure the system keeps track of a lot more things than I would like to think about....

Thanks John! Keep us posted.

It doesn't track by hour, but I could write a query to pull the data out, if I were that curious

And Broadway, it's not that I mind so much being split across 2 servers, but right at the moment, I'm paying for 3 top-end servers, and I'd really like to cut out 2/3 of my pretty hefty monthly bill
