I agree. It's clear that if you aren't an administrator of the RX-7 forum, then you are an idiot. Perfect logic.

And it's not just peaks that the T1 hits. We were pegged at full saturation for 9 straight hours on Tuesday of this week! That's a fact, and can mean only one thing... we need more bandwidth.

rx7style - you believe what you want, get used to those 'custom' titles. :p

I understand that your T1 is being saturated for long periods of time.. I think alot of people accessing the site during the day are doing it from work & have decent internet access. This doesn't mean that you need to give them the bandwidth they want. I have never noticed this site slowing to a crawl.. I have noticed that it is slower during peak hours.. But it was not unusable. You might want to take a poll of users & see if they think the site was having problems.. I think it is great that you want a really fast & responsive site... (It'd be kinda funny if it was a slow fat pig, like a mustang

This of course does cost alot of money. With the amount of readers on this site you should have no problems getting advertising to pay for your bandwidth...

Are you guys pro-activly searching for advertisors?

Unfortunatly I am not going down to St. Louis as often anymore. My brother was living there & I was going down about every weekend. I am currently working on puting 1 of my cars back together.. But when its done I'll have to bring it down to show off..

Its a 84 GSL-SE with a 90TII motor & a T04E

BTW Jason I'll be needing to get some prices on a haltech & maybe some other things.. But not just yet I'm poor right now..

See ya,

hrmm...is it about once every 28 days? hehe...
but one thing i have been wondering BOOST, what exactly are your reasons for changing rx7style's title and would you consider that ethical? that is, if you were just a lowly rx7forum member and the admin was basically verbally abusing you and invading your personal profile to insult you, would you consider that ethical? and as far as his signature goes, are you going to be the victim for the **** ravaging extravaganza? if so, how do you believe having your anus ravaged would feel?

OK people lets end this already. All these flames are doing nothing to help the forum. Complaints and gripes have put put out in the open and answers have been given. Like it or not things are as they are. We can either accept it and carry on or reject it and move along.

**** ravaging extravaganza ... haa haa! Actually I was in bum **** MO this weekend, I bet there was some barnyard **** ravaging going on down there. I just messed with rx7style(less) because he's a moody little know-it-all, and I'm a funny guy. Ethics smethics

Yea, we want the site faster definately. I don't think it was slow before, but it could be better. I took a poll after we opened it up to 2 mb/sec, and like 88% of people said it was faster.

Yes, but not as actively as we should be...

I can get you a good deal on a Wolf 3D, and I can help you tune it .. and we all know tuning is the most important thing. Let me know if you do come here though. My setup will probably be similar to yours, but much more wild
