Please accept my apology for the server

Leasing physical servers.

Compared to what you are leasing, have you looked at the ROI on leasing space for your own hardware and building your own clusters? I've picked up some pristine hardware by watching tech startups fold and auction off their vendor over-built infrastructure on Ebay.

There's no reason we should have to endure slow servers like tonight, so I'm without excuse, but we moved servers over the summer and there's no way to tweak everything for the kind of traffic we get on game day until it actually happens.

Anyway, I made what changes I could during the game that kept it from crashing and I have the other solutions set, but I didn't want to take the board down to work on the database during the game, which is what needs to be done.

Thank you all for having patience and continuing to come back, even though I suck as an admin. lol.

Love you guys. Go Vols!

As long as you're not passing classified Vol info on it we all good.

Wrong forum?

Don't worry about it Freak. We always appreciate the best forum on the web.

No worries Freak. Probably was a good think to keep a lid on some of us the way that game was going initially.

Dunno about all this apology stuff, and taking responsibility - shouldn't you just blame Russian hackers? :)

Thanks man! Where else can you watch grown men and women totally lose their minds, fire a great coach, and then cry like babies when the horrible coach and team wins one of the most spectacular wins in UT history? Hope the team and fans grow a lot from game one. We are 1-0 baby! VFL GBO!

Honestly I work in computers and it just happens, Freak. Anyone who doesn't understand that in this technical world; there is bugs, malware, and server crashes, just doesn't understand the highly complex environment.

You provide a great service to all of us, Thank you.

Come on FREAK.... this is a FREE forum..... Anyone that would complain should just be banned and told to go jump in the creek.
Volnaition is the best site and its like we pay to use it.

You guys are all too kind. I'm really not fishing for compliments here. lol. But thank you.

Those lags shouldn't be happening. I'm going to work and try to get 1% better every day from here on out. :)

Freak, are the likes temporarily disabled again, or did I just use mine up?

(in a way, I was grateful for the latency issues - they distracted me from the sheer awfulness of most of the game)
