    I just wanted to thank you, Clutch, for improving the technical side of the BBS. There are over 2000 members and visitors on the site as I type this, and the server(s) are handling things just fine. Oh, and I owe you $43 bucks! A dollar for every win. I think one or two other folks promised the same thing. Anyway, kudos on the work you've obviously put in. :)-

    I appreciate it Deckard... I'm just glad it's running much smoother now. I can actually enjoy times like these and not have to spend so much time just trying to get it back up and stable.

    Board flat out exploded in traffic today... stayed up the whole time. Front page went down briefly. No board issues.

    I bet a lot of the newer folks have no idea how you sweated bullets keeping the place going when big news broke, and the traffic was a fraction of what it is now. When I saw the numbers, I just had to say something. :)-

    Yeah, I was surprised it continued to be so responsive. Great job, and thanks for all the upgrades you've been doing behind the scenes.

    Wanted to say thanks as well. Nearly 1600 members and guests online and nearly 6900 replies and 345 pages later in the trade thread, all still running well for me. Thanks again and appreciate for all you do!

    For times like this, Im very thankful for not avatars and images in the sigs, that way the pages load more quickly.

    Thanks Clutch!
