What ever happened to the "promised" better server

We were promised a better server a while back yet now nothing. Now it is only stopping the more challenging post (like the word game post). If you are promised a thing, it would seem to me that, it would be nice to see it brought through. Has it really all came down to just an issue of money? When for $75 you can purchase a years worth of webspace needed to run even mp3 music? You can find forum space like this game even for free out there. Why then have we seen none of the promised improvements? Just a little ranting from a part-time user of the site (due to full-time use of another).

I have been told to be patient
and who "promised you" anything?

BUT :D

Really why did max/violet or the mods tell us the possibility if they werent going to do it?

why couldent it have been like a preasent on cristmas morning on a year u were really bad in?

they could have 'jolted us' and everybody would have been happy BUT NO.

everybody akes mistakes. time to move on. so suck it up trooper.

I blame the military RPers. They all seem to post huge picture files.

I personally wasn't promised a thing. We all were. Or maybe a better way to put things would be: We were led to believe that there was going to be a better server and that the site was going to improve. Instead we have seen more limitations and nothing changed as to the server.

Does that satisfy the literal critics?

I am only asking (in a ranting sort of style). Curiosity may kill felines. I think we are allow a little curiosity around here still. In other words: I don't think there is any danager of deletion for asking about this.

You are not entitled to anything. Promises mean nothing. Mods may delete you at their whim. Shut up and obey. Thank you.

The new server saw what was happening to the current serve and now mortally fears being mass-... uhhh... abused.

We're trying to reassure it, now, that everythings going to be fine. This is the slow part in the transition.

Has it really all came down to just an issue of money? When for $75 you can purchase a years worth of webspace needed to run even mp3 music? You can find forum space like this game even for free out there.

Heh, not quite. Max is currently paying ~$250/month for a dedicated server. Which is puking and dying from the load being pulled. A free server would have no chance in Hell of surviving the amount of data transfered every second of every day by this site.

We are currently waiting for Jolt to finish getting ready for us to move there. Oddly enough, we aren't their only priority, so things take time. If it makes you feel better, we Mods have known about the move for even longer than you have, so we're even more frustrated with the delay.
