Not quite sure what's gone on this afternoon as I couldn't even access our server. Had a support call open for a few hours - looks like we've been moved to a different server now - fingers crossed we'll stay up. Apologies for disruption.

Just in maintenance mode whilst I check some things out
[/quote]As has already been said, really really appreciate all the work Sean, not just today but all the time.
Cheers mate.
 
Thanks gents. Hopefully those performance issues over the last day or so are gone now too. Keeping me eye on it.

Is it me or does it seem a lot quicker ?
[/quote]yea, flying for me too and normally it can be a tad on the slow side.
Well done.
 
Not on my part Dylan. Didn't have a clue what was going on so had to give the provider a call. Fair does to them looks like they've got us moved onto a new host within a couple of hours.
 
If I was gay, I would probably want to snog George Clooney, whilst applauding Sunny.
 
Does this mean the mods can lord it over us pheasants even quicker that normal

who pays for 6CM? how do you guys make money?

We pay for it

i work in the NHS, and the others do things that i'm too busy to remember

*adjusts diamond cravatte*
 
It's not that expensive George as we spread the cost between us. If the site grew somewhat we'd potentially need more powerful hosting options which would obviously cost much more. Main impact, for me at least, is time invested which has been a bit lacking of late I know but is due to workload

How much does it cost (if you don't mind me asking)?

Sunnys the money man so he knows

plus if i tell you, you might start a rival site, and that don't sit well with Gator

is that why you're horrible to new forum members, to keep the numbers of 6CM down?
 
We don't really ever want to charge people - as Oncy says - its for shits and giggles and we just want to provide the best site we can for people to enjoy and have some good craic. Whereas we welcome ideas and opinions sometimes some of the criticism can sting a bit at times. Especially when we're accused of putting our personal egos before the site as a whole. Which is the furthest thing from the truth sadly.
 
Neil I'd love the site to grow a bit - not to RAWK size but enough to bring some more characters and some more diversity of opinion to the boards

A stork brings a load of cash, every 28 days.

The mods take it in turn to feed it sardines and pasta.
