Hey y'all! We have only been up and running for 3 weeks, and yet we have ALREADY had to increase our bandwith! (Yeah, I admit, I don't really know WHAT that MEANS, but my fellow co-founder assures me that means we are kicking ass...) That fact made me very happy today, and I just wanted to say thanks to all of you as well as WELCOME to all of the new users.
I love us!!

Yes, we have used 3.32 GB of bandwidth. Which is the amount of data sent out by the server. I have increased the allotment twice now. Still not in danger of using what I already pay for.

We have had 548,304 hits, which is a bit misleading since so many elements count as hits, such as the smilies, logo, and all the other little images that are on the pages.

The error log shows ZERO server errors. :clap

I have deleted 21 user accounts that could have been those annoying advertising bots. You know, spamming us with Viagra or Cialis ads. I got them deleted before the accounts were verified. I will take extra steps to avoid stuff like that if needed.

We have a wide variety of discussions going on and even a threat that simply made my day!

:clap Scarlett :clap

I had to increase bandwidth again this morning.

You have used 4.75 GB of bandwidth. (I send myself warnings when it reaches 80% of the limit)

We have had 739,000 hits.

I think I have the spambots under control. I added a mod that should eliminate almost all of them. They just wouldn't stop trying to gain access in order to sell you all some Viagra.
