Now don't be too curious... you might kill the cat.

 

LOL I like that one

 

In all honesty, I think now would be a good time to tell everyone your plans. You're losing massive amount of members and the site will eventually bleed to death if this keeps up.

 

hmmm, were waiting, waiting, and waiting.



I saw the fix, They took away the FORUM JUMP, OMG that fixed everything.

Hey look, I can even post pics, you guys see it below, its HUGE, 1KB!

 

Ever heard of baiting a fish on a hook.

Hook, line, and sinker. You fell for that one, LOL!

 

Hey gang,

I'm working on the server now, I know there are issues and you should notice and improvement tonight in the very short time. If you have any problems please PM me and I'll see what I can do about addressing them.

Update:

Okay you should notice a drastic improvement in the site, if you get a server too busy please log the date/time and let me know please. For those of you who were curious these are the things that changed:

Updated apache config to allow more servers: this will stop CPU/IO overhead.
Updated my.cnf mysql conf to allow larger memory footprint and improve performance.
Updated the mysql table indexes.

 

And with all the people leaving to other sites, the "server too busy" thing kinda takes care of itself, huh? j/k

 

Actually,

We have had a record amount of concurrent users tonight!

 

**********.com really is kicking ***. i can find anything over there that i can over here. i'm only here because of this post. maybe one day i'll be back.

 

x1

 

Um, 1x1=1 I think you meant +1?

 

adios amigos..

 

That kicking a** site seems good with sales & marketing. Emailing around our sponsors for sponsorship.... ha?

Subject: **********.com Sponsorship

I would like to invite you to be a part of our rapidly growing 350z Enthusiast website.
We only started our site this January and have seen an increasing interest in our site from
Z owners, Part vendors, and Dealerships. Over the past 3 months our site has exploded with
activity. We are now seeing an average of 500 member registrations per month and it is on the rise.

http://www.**********.com

We are working very hard to make this site the best 350z Information site on the net, and
the feedback we have received so far has been very positive. We are seeking sponsors for
the site to assist in funding the server portion. The rapid growth of the site has created
a need to upgrade servers (which we completed last week.) Our ne dedicated server consist of:

Dual Intel Xeon 2.4 GHz, 533 MHz FSB with HyperThreading
1024 MB Dual Channel DDR266 ECC RAM (upgrades up to 4GB available)
120 GB hard drive (upgrades up to dual 250 GB available)
1000 GB Bandwidth included (Non-Cogent)

I hope that you will join our community and contribute your knowledge and services. We are
still tweaking our sponsorship program but as of know we are doing 2 levels:


Level 1: 150$; for 3 months. This will get you Vendor status on the forums
allowing you post in the Vendor classified section. You will also get a rotating banner in the
forums along with a static banner on the Sponsors page with a description of your company.


Level 2: 200$; for 3 months. Same as above but you will also have a dedicated page on the
Featured Products pages, similar to this one:
http://www.**********.com/forums/portal.php?pg=afeng

You are free to use that page for whatever you feel necessary, such as running specials,
posting pictures, or just listing all your offerings. We will put the page together for you
based on your input.

I think we are on track to become a great Z website. We are also working on other ideas for
sponsors, but if you have anything else you would want us to do please ask.. We are very
flexible.

Thanks for your time,

Wow they are e-mailing our sponsors for sponsorship. Brilliant!
