Questions, etc.

I think these changes sound great. That two server system sounded needlessly expensive, especially considering all the downtime. Hopefully we can figure out a system that has Sythe up 95% of the time or more. This site has huge potential, and it has proven so by pursuing on through adversity provided by botnets, Jagex, and other annoying pests.

 

speedster239,

You have my interest. Can we continue this conversation over private messages?

Send me a quote for the proposed setup. I'm currently on a recent intel dual cpu dual core, 4gb of ram /w centos and WHM. Unfortunately it appears to be running a 32bit version of centos (and therefore is limited to under 4gb of usable memory), so I am legitimately interested in your offer.

Send me a quote.

I must say I am impressed with the current speed.

I'm glad that you're interested in our hosting plans, you've been sent a private message with a .doc file containing your quote.

OK a quick update for the masses:

Server was down/up graded. Hosting costs are half what they were, but server is faster with more memory. Went from two servers (which was not working out) to one, newer, faster server, which appears to be working well.

I'm looking into remote admin arrangement. I might end up hiring a company to monitor and keep the site online.

My current intention for the direction of the site is greater functionality and userbase.

There is a redesign in the works, I've set aside some capital for it.
There is the notion of a sythe.org MMORPG or private server, lingering in my mind.
And other goodies yet to be disclosed.

First things first. Achieve excellent uptime and activity on the boards. All other things (enhancements, improvements, direction) come second.

Sounds great

So far so good, the new server is the fastest thing that i have seen..on a site this large.

So, what kind of 'skin' designs are you looking into sythe? If any as of now.

 

[SuF]

To speed this up you can go start -> run. Type cmd.exe, press enter. At the prompt type "ipconfig /flushdns" without quotes and hit enter. Then close your browser and open it again.

thanks for posting this... it got me back on...

 

[Horror]

I belive it was $600 for the two servers, so I guess we're looking at $300.

Sythe, in the future - would you mind if i donated to that cost?

 

[Touch1]

Good to hear it costs less and that it's faster.

New skin, maybe new version of vbul. Additional features... more website to browse. I'll probably hire someone to do most of this.

Hello Sythe,

I was recentely looking at your site and read this topic about you might be hiring someone to have redesign this site.

The hosting site i'm going to soon work for JaguarPC has used this site to redesign there website and forum.

If you are interested and want a link to the site so you can send them an estimation on how much your willing to spend on your design, feel free to contact my email or private message me. They have done many jobs even vbulletin sites with over 100,000 users as, I see this site is also a very large site.

I still wonder to this day what Cheater had originally planned for his vision of the "new sythe" so long ago.

 

Daily i still have the source haha, they were coding their own forum!
