B-Chat Upgrade your website

[4breakout]

between 12-1 it's useless....

Need to block out guest access for one hour before first football game or get more server capacity.

[4breakout]

what good is blocking out guest access? They will just register.
You need more power, bandwidth, etc....

it's not the site

It's the server. maybe a duel processor would help

Maybe it's time to restart the service picks by email again.

I agree we could restart service plays by email, but doesn't that defeat the purpose of the site.

If you are getting traffic, and you want traffic, get a bigger engine.

you don't get in the left lane of the autobahn with an escort
you upgrade to a porsche, unless you want to stay in the right lane, which is perfectly fine

This is one of the reasons I offered to e-mail plays to anyone interested even though I was told the site will NOT bog down. I gave up trying to get back on here this morning.
Last year, the e-mailing of picks seemed to help out. By my estimate 80% of the people here during football are freeloaders with nothing to offer. The sad part is that the 20% of the people who want to share information were blocked out this morning.
I don't care if it's e-mailing the picks or a bigger engine, but something has got to be done. BC if you're listening, I am still willing to pay something to help get this done.

i was blocked out for an hour

4breakout,

How do you even know what I have??

It's not the server either as I was told it was the port switch problem.

I spent $3200 on a new server like I said that is a dual xeon with dual scsi hard drives and 2 gigs of ram. The load on the server barely reached 1. On the old server it got up over 200. So its not the server as I stated above.

I don't like it anymore than anyone else when it happens and I was on the phone with them trying to get it fixed.

Guys

It's not BC's fault. He has updated to a new server that should handle all we can give it. Let him work the bugs out and we will be fine, he has upgraded his server to provide to the traffic and then some. I think all will be fine. His current system should have NO problem at all.

PS by the way, what do you guys want for free?

[Baseball_Nut]

what a popular site this is

the best site ever:D

[4breakout]

BC, i don't know what you have, I don't care either. Whatever it is something is wrong, the same thing happened last football season....if its not the equpment its your service provider.

I offered you a guy that i know that could solve all your problems(sportsbooks use him) and for whatever reason you didn't go for it.

look this company up, do some research... AI.NET parent of dynamichosting.com....get rid of the outfit you use currently....they are a waste of your time & money.

if you use ai.net or dynamic hosting you will not have any problems!!

check out sporting bet . com at 12,12:30 or 12:50 no problems smooth as silk, they use them.....

don't take this the wrong way, i think you run a great site with much offered by a lot of people, its just when you everyone wants it the most it fails....

[BettorsChat]

I use Nac.net which is a better provider and has way more peering connections.

[Baseball_Nut]

maybe its our computers that are slow at home and work(bar)

[casheasy]

Blame ***

It's his fault. He has a secret jamming system that can render the site useless and force people to pay for his picks.
