Sorry folks - I was wrestling with a big pile of spam (like 65,000 pieces of spam) and Shralver locked up. Took quite a bit of prodding and such to work out what the hell was going on.

Bugger.

Yar - I always feel a bit guilty when something like that happens as it doesn't take long for everyone to jump back online.

There's this feeling of people chewing on their keyboards in frustration because Vorb is down.

The good thing I can report is a bit of an upgrade to how you view threads on MiniVorb and Active Posts. I think I'll leave it to you all to work out how it works Wink

Were their lots of anonymous draters dissing volunteer event organisers?

Because I can't get enough of that sort of quality content.

With the way a stream of TXT messages, phone calls and e-mails come my way if Vorb disappears for more than 15 minutes - yes.

I got kicked off by my flatmate cos she wanted to use the phone.

I always think about sending an email when Vorb goes down but figure 10000( maybe not quite taht many) other people are doing it and I'll just be contributing one more piece of knowledge you already know.

Exactly - and if Vorb is down I can't get e-mail anyway Wink

The worse thing is people TXTing/ phoning me when I'm riding/ late at night etc. - and generally it's a fault at their end - Hmmmm - Luckily I get paid heaps for running Vorb, oh wait, that's right, it actually costs me thousands of dollars of my own money to keep this site churning.
