A Modest Proposal to Fix SF Site Slowness - Page 3

post #31 of 41
Who owns this site anyway, and who are the moderators? It seems like some ancient Chinese secret.

BTW - I'm good for a 20 spot.

Buddha owns the site, and I think Guan Yu moderates it.

So in the interest of constructive criticism, why don't we consider the following actions:

1. Ask SF members for $10 donations via paypal if money is required to move to a host with more speed/bandwidth.

2. Reduce the number of pages of large photo-based threads such as Shoe Pron and the Are These Fake Thread by closing the original threads, archiving them, and starting a Part II Thread. One board I visit limits the thread page numbers to 50 and then creates Part X. My understanding is that this improves vbulletin speed.

3. Upgrade vBulletin to the latest and greatest version.

Are these reasonable? Just trying to see what we can do. I don't want to have j, Brad, or Fok or others have too great a burden in running the site.

I'm willing to make a donation if it helps j.

I'm normally cheap.

But am willing to donate either $10 or $20 to speed things up.

I love Styleforum.

This thread really failed to deliver on the baby eating.

Rather than PayPal donations. I was thinking maybe we could have SF Operators and right when you're in the middle of posting they could break in and say "please insert $1.25 to continue this posting in this threak."
