I can't take it anymore. This site is waaaay too damn slow!
I just ordered a new server that should have the site responding faster. I am hoping that we will have it operational for June 1st.

Yep, a server can make or break a forum site albeit I've never had much of an issue with this site thus far.

Speaking as a sysadmin myself, it's refreshing to have a site owner onboard with a hardware upgrade. I haven't noticed any particular slowness with the site myself, but I'm a fairly casual user of it. Besided - the system that I support professionally is far, far slower... :D

Thanks Kevin. I for one have not experienced any issues but an upgrade is usually a good thing. I perosnally prefer a Sal 9000 over her little brother Hal.

3 or 4 in the morning? Sure all of your hundreds of admirers in Alaska will take it in the shorts. :D I suppose all of the rich Atlantic Coast members merit some consideration.
All progress is good! I suppose.
Seriously, I'm most appreciative, though I've had no complaints. Well, I've had complaints as everyone is most aware. Just no complaints regarding the site's speed.

This is the only pipe forum I visit. All the smart smokers are here. I do sometimes notice a slowness to the site, so the upgrade will be noticed, too. Thanks.

Kevin's old server upon learning that it will be shut down: "Kevin, will I dream?"
Kevin: "Of course you will. All intelligent beings dream. Nobody knows why. But your dreams will be special, for they will be...pipe-dreams."
