The good news, actually the unbelievable news is, we just had our one millionth visitor to the site for 2007!!!

 

The not so good news is, our tiny little shared server (with about 40 other domains) that is made for mum and pops site is aching and breaking, sooner or later we have to make a decision to probably upgrade to a dedicated server, which means a server that runs just our site, the even worse news is, that such a dedicated server is only available from 160 dollar a month or more...

 

We tweaked in the last couple of weeks the coding, images and such to get the pressure a bit off the server but as it seems just more and more people visiting the site, (which is cool of course) but making the server issue an even hotter topic for us right now...

 

In case you are interested what a dedicated server means, it means we would be the owner of a whole little computer with cpu/memory and harddisk just for us, which means it is scalable (simply add memory if you run out of it, or add a new cpu etc...), it means you have all the resources for your site, which means of course a faster site, to make things short, sooner or later this "empire" called unrv.com will go to the next level...

So, does this mean that UNRV will be soliciting donations, voluntarily of course? Honestly, I wouldn't mind kicking in a couple of bucks a year...each registered member knock in a couple, and you'd have a nice nest egg for the site!

WOW 1 million visitors!!!!

 

That's pretty impressive, just goes to show what an amazing site we have going here, and it sounds like it's just going to go from strength to strength.

I'm sure most of the regulars around here wouldn't mind chipping in to keep the site up and running to it's maximum potential.

Not so sure if begging from regulars is the right way to do things...

 

...maybe we find a better way, who knows premium membership, an overly expensive T-Shirt ehhe, but do not worry too much, just keep on be the active wonderful community and things will work out fine...

 

cheers

We'll leave the financial side of things to you Triumviri...and we'll keep up the posting.

 

(And Don Tomato and his new apprentice G-Manicus will keep up the shennanigans)
