SHARIA LAW SCHOOL posted:not worth it. ban all foreign IPs. Keep it Americans only. this is honestly not a bad idea, given GDPR requirements also re: documentation, you guys should harrass lowtax ceaselessly irl until he actually accepts help because it's probably the only viable way to get that outcome

Please don't go further into debt for this ![]() I usually wait for the top ad to appear for a few seconds anyway so you get a fraction of a penny (please don't tell me your ads are clickthrough only)

Dude, it used to take me hours to download a nude picture back when I was high school. You aren’t gonna make me mad if the site takes 4 seconds longer.

Keeping a website like this alive on your own for 20+ years with nothing but volunteer help from unstable people seems like a really impressive feat for anyone. Lowtax isn't a bad businessman, he's a wizard who cares not for the temptations of riches.

Inexplicable Humblebrag posted:no he's definitely a bad businessman, by the standards of businessmen What are the standards of businessmen? According to pop culture, being a bidnessman is all about hiding your money, drug addiction and desire to kill puppies and loving your secretary/assistant/ux developer while your ageing wife gets more plastic injected into her turkey neck.

Just take care of your bills and if the forums have to be slightly slower only assholes are going to care. Keep this place running as long as you can. Get better. Feel better. We love ya.

Replace every one of Lowtax's vertebrae with a cluster of biometrically powered CPUs. We need these forums to be fast as possible, no matter the cost!

It's fine, just let it run in the normal way it was running before. Don't worry too much about search either it's more or less singularly used by Goons having arguments with other Goons to angrily find their posts from 2007 when they were having a Libertarian phase or something.

I say double the price of search. The forums are perfectly good the way they are, we don't need A-Train speed to call each other brotherfuckers.

I don't think the occasional downtime is a nuisance as long as it's intermittent and doesn't last hours.
