Forum Update

Recommended Posts

...for those of you who gets this far to read it. The Dropzone.com server is running out of memory. I've purchased some more and the company I have this hosted with has a maintenance window scheduled for midnight to 4:00 am PST on the 8th.
Hoping that will be the short term fix - I'll have to dig into how I can save some resources by optimizing some code etc later.
Huge apology for the inconvenience. Hope to have this humming again soon. :)Safe swoops

HH... there is no reason for you to appologize for anything. You are providing this out of the kindness of your soul and I am really grateful for it.
Would it help to clear all the old data from the fourm tables or past a certian date? Also if you need any help or want us to do anything... just ask! Also is the paypal link still good in the pub?

HH,
Thanks for more memory! It is amazing how popular this site has become. Thank you very much for your love of the sport and willingness to have a website like this for all of us to enjoy! Whether at work and looking for a good laugh or having a question answered by experienced people in the sport, (such as Bill Booth), this site is a great way to stay in contact with the sport when you are off the actual dropzone.
Thanks again! ;)

Hey, HH!
You da man! Thanks for all you do, and for all the resources under one click! If I had any extra $$, I'd send you some. And when I do, I will! (Still owe you a beer and a jump, should we ever actually meet...:)Ciels and Pinks-

I didn't realize just how addicted I was until I couldn't get here at all today...


No doubt. I searched the websites for Square 1, Rigs and Things, Performance Designs, Relative Workshop, Precision Arerodynamics and Icarus Canopies all day. Icarus has not updated their website with their new canopies, yet. HH beat them to it! :)

Heya all,
First - thank you so much for all the kind words. Also, thank you for all the emails, (even the ones bitching about the site that's down! hehehe!) I'll reply to every one of them over the next few days. I really appreciate the support. :)I have doubled the memory on the box and that should be an OK short term fix. Problem is that something is still sucking up most of the memory and I'll have to figure out what that is. It's probably one piece of crappy code.... and unfortunately it's a bit of a needle in a haystack. I'll find it though, and hopefully we'll be over-stocked on memory once I stop the leak.
I will probably do some more database maintenance over the next week so there may be a few more downtimes, I'll try and keep them to a minimum though and do them when most of you guys are in bed.... :)Back to the fun then!
Safe swoops

Ditto what Lisa said!
Can't believe I pay AOL every month just ta read my e-mail and come to this site,, I know AOL sucks but there isn't a lot of options locally ta get online,, HH I'd be happy to pay a "small" fee for access to the site as a member,, you all have entertained me for yrs and I'd be happy to cough up some dinero for the cause! Maybe not make it mandatory for the folks that are strapped,,, but have it as an option ta help a bro out....
