JoeUser: The corner has been turned

JoeUser: The corner has been turned

Thank you for your patience

JoeUser may be a neat site but it hasn't been IMO a very reliable site. Down times, slow speeds, flakey behavior, bugs, etc.  On the one hand, it's free, so how can we complain? But on the other hand, it's still been down, slow, flakey, and buggy and that just because you're free doesn't mean that you're above criticism.

But in the past few days, we've finally started the full upgrade process on our entire server farm.  Shortly after GalCiv II shipped, we did some emergency updates that were designed to keep sites marginally running.  This week, we began the full stage upgrade. 

Hopefully, even though we're only half-way done, you can tell that the site is much faster. Less flakey. More reliable.  Traffic has already started increasing dramatically as a result. More readers for your blogs, more freedom to surf the site, etc.

So for all of you who have been through the rough times as well as the good times, thanks for sticking it through.

"The free ice cream would be great if they didn't slip so many turds in the cones."


Yeah, but people allow anonymous users, so it's up to them. If they want the turds posting on their blogs, that's their deal. Don't feel bad, though, we overlook your smell.

I searched for a while for a good place to talk, me being motormouth and all. I found this place by coincidence and I think it's great. It gave me the chance to express myself in many ways, to find people who think like me and also a learning experience I will never forget.

Thanx for this great site Brad. It is working better since I've noticed the few bugs it had before. It's faster now. Great job, now if only someone call explain to me the point system. I read it but I'm still a bit confused about it. Thanx.
