i was joking.. don't take message boards so seriously.....

wow there's a lotta tension here... haha

k seriously
the "FAG" thing got played months ago by jamie. theres no point in starting it again.
from now on, every deconstructive post gets points and if youre really lucky an edited post. whether you like it or not Revscene is supposed to grow. you wonder why most new members leave. and dont look at me funny, if I didnt stick up for it, someone else would come in and do it.

:werd:
I agree


*isnt lookin at you funny*

except i can't help but look at mike funny..

he's from kelownaforniaaa :coo:

:clap:
One exam down... 3 more to go... wooo

so, is it all the recent newbies on here that are slowing it down and crashing the server, or is it just an internal server problem? cuz its been very slow if not available at all for me lately

All 3? It's been slow for me too.

i was thinking i was the only one having that problem... sometimes it never works... others it takes years to load the first page.. are there really that many noobs tho?

I'm pretty sure onetire was referring to all of RS, not just the lowly OK side of things

weee...its snowing!!!! :D

yeah, i've noticed ever since registartions been opened up again, theres nooobs all over rs, which isnt always a bad thing either tho

its not the noobs crashing the server its motherfuckers that have no life and postwhore in my OT thread all day that are making it slow.

yeah it is the noobs, when it crashed yesterday it gave me the error "my sql connect, too many connections with the database"
meaning too many people online at once!

damn noobs... mind you without them this forum would be fulla old farts.... lol

finally done this stupid essay.... now i have about 15 mins to get it up to the school....argh... really looking forward to the 12th.. last day of exams pour moi....

some noobs are good to have around.

others just waste bandwidth.

thats true there are the good noobs

great to have newbies, but when we can't get on cause the server is jammed up...time to do something.

I think you should send a request to admin. only opening up the registration couple days a month again!

youre joking right? you htink its the newbies that are slowing RS down?
do you have any idea the load that is put on the revscene server?

and its growing at an alarming rate

donate some money and help pay for a bigger server, or SHUT UP AND STOP COMPLAINING YOU CHEAP FREELOADER. ;)

:werd: Buy custom titles, the money goes to cover server costs.

yeah...so...what is your point...that new people are just adding to them problem then right!? I never said that i wouldn't pay...no one asked...so technically...i'm not a freeloader.....
and i don't see you running to anyone forking over money! :p

the only thing he's forking money over right now for is your pictures!

How many new posters has revscene had since the registration opened once again? If there has been massive ammounts, many posting mindless junk and non - useful threads sure, newbie problem. However, this forum has a large database of posters, a 3% with newbies shouldn't make the largest difference, beats me though I am a newbie ;)

More on the newbie thing -> a small stream constantly joining is great, keeps things moving and having fresh members is great. Most of the time 70% of newbies leave after only a month or so.

EDIT: This is ThunderKat

it may not be the newbies then...i was just saying...i haven't had problems since this mass increase of registration began.

And like I said before...the more the merrier!! :)
