One of the busiest huddle days in history yesterday....

Well, do you lose revenue when people get 'server busy' pages?

Well this was the most dormant off-season that I can remember and when we started getting some new talent it was like the new season had sprung. :thumbsup:

maybe it's time to buy an extra cracker jack box for the server farm

Sorry for not paying triple so that refresh happy people can go nuts 3 days a year.

implement one of those auto refresh scripts. Maybe some people will use them and even out the server load. On high traffic days, you should make it members only and for guests, they have to go through an advertisement checkpoint thing.

Also set the forum to force people off once their "session" expires.. for example if some people have been idling for like 30 min without doing anything, force a session expire.

Just some minor things that can help alleviate but not really cure the problem.

Is that an excuse for not keeping up? If you want to become a big player you have to go the extra mile to not piss off your base. No sympathy here.

IMHO it's probably better to wait and get on anyway because that way you kind of miss all the crazies with their knee-jerk. over emotional, (sometimes) over-the-top reactions based on nothing but one-upmanship .

best analysis I've seen...

Buncha frickin' football starved maniacs.

*sigh* why can't flag football be played in the spring up here?
