[Dave Wood]

:eek::eek::eek::D:D:D:D:):)


You all are incredible people!!!! How you kept this forum going yesterday under that onslaught I will never know.

I do know this. You all KNOW YOUR STUFF with computers. This board was POUNDED yesterday and didnt even seem to hiccup;)


Two VERY BIG thumbs up in appreciation for all that you do for this country! True patriots.

[BLS]

Oh...it hiccuped. But it kept on chugging away!

Kudo's to the boys running our only bastion of freedom!

[Korey Kaczynski]

They had to connect the servers to treadmills to keep plugging them with a boost of power!

[freelance]

Thanks to you guys for keeping it up and running.

[constituent]

no kidding. great job!

[EvilEngineer]

yup, great jobs admin and mods. I was amazed the site stayed up when all of the other RP sites were crying under the strain.

[ConstitutionGal]

Great job and MUCH appreciated. I don't know how we could have gotten through yesterday with this forum where we could hold each other's hands!!!

[Man from La Mancha]

Great job and wait someday soon there will be 10,000 on board at once.

.

[walt]

yes, even the campaign did a good job on the bandwith front. :)

[lucius]

Nice job!

[reduen]

Agreed, very good job and thank you for a place to come and do all things Ron Paul!!

Go Ron Paul 2008!

[Dave Wood]

Bump...PLEEEEZZZ give the RP forum folks some lovin for keeping this machine running during the pounding yesterday!

Remember when....it used to crash with a couple hundred people?? This site took thousands yesterday and kept on ticking......

Worth a round of applause in my book because I am not sure where my wife and I would go to express the sheer JOY of these moments. Memorable, because we can all SHARE them.

Just my .02

[foofighter20x]

Nah, we just used bots to make it appear like there was over 1200 people logged on at once. ;) :p [/joke]

[Mandrik]

I don't even wanna know how many hamsters died to keep those wheels spinning last night.

[hard@work]

I wonder if you guys had any idea how much of an impact you'd make.

:)

[Bradley in DC]

Hear, hear!

[foofighter20x]

I'll admit: Credit lies solely with Josh and Bryan. I have no hand in the admin/technical side of the house.

[mkrfctr]

Personally I was disappointed.

1. I was promised there would be no math. There was math.
2. I expected fresh home-made chocolate chip cookies. I received none.

Great forum, I just wish the grassroots forum was cleaned up more often to allow for increased activism without a lot of general discussion.

[mkrfctr]

I think there just needs to be a spin-off grassroots activites/discussion forum right next to this one, and just change/rename this one to general ron paul discussion

[llamabread]

Ahh, I remember the old days when the forums crashed with 100 people on during the first few debates, and while we were doing play-by-plays of rallys like the Iowa candidates forum (remember?....) and all the early media appearances (Colbert, Daily Show, ...)

Ohh, this was all just FIVE months ago. How in the world did we make it this far.

Edit- Josh and Friends are the best

[Bryan]

Thanks everyone. Of course the forum is what is it because all the great users. :)

No, no hamsters died, but Josh and I are pretty tired swapping out floppy discs down in the basement. :D

We'll work on the cookies, can't make any promises on the math. :p

If things stay anywhere near where they are now :eek: we can certainly benefit from something cleaner. Start a new thread with some ideas. :)

This is a good idea. :)

[NewEnd]

good job yall

[RobS]

If "Josh and friends" would be willing to make a post on what kind of hardware/software this site is running, I'd greatly appreciate it! As long as it doesn't take away from their normal duties of course!

(I know it is VBulletin, I'd like to know what OS, any kind of caching/improvements they've made etc. I'm a nerd :) )

Will do. I've run a big forum or two in my life and might have some good ideas.

Where do you want me to put the thread? ;)
