Question Why does VADriven go down so often?
Not a flame thread, I'm just curious. (also, sorry if this is the wrong section) Is it connection issues? Server issues? I frequent other forums, some with more traffic/bandwidth than this, and they seemingly rarely go down. I understand its ran by one man, but so are the other forums. (all expense comes out of one mans pocket, but vadriven has patrons) Still, I would imagine the connection to be at least a couple of hundred a month. Just wondering. . . 14+ hours is a long time to be down. Also, what OS is the server running?

This recent outage was the first that in the past several months.

I'm just wondering, how do you know how much bandwidth/traffic VADriven gets?

that's not true, there are shitloads of days when it's spotty up and down and the items you click just hang-on until they timeout (without loading)

More of a speculation than anything. I'm on a forum that has less total members (14k+) but about 400 of them post daily and frequently. To add, the server also offers its own hosting software where it loads to the server itself)

That being said, I would have to disagree. This forum has gone down several times, but not to the same duration.
