Website Back Up!

I’m sure you are well aware that the site has been down for over a week at this point, I have finally fixed it – this time for good I believe. I changed/upgraded two things that I suspected being highly insufficient.

Details of what I did if you’re the tech type:

• Switch from broken installation  of CentOS to perfect installation of Ubuntu.
  • Installed on its own SSD to decrease load on the websites SSD.
• Doubled the amount of RAM we have
  • 8GB –> 16GB DDR4  (not that impressive I know)
• Removed lots and lots of dust.

These upgrades should help the server be more reliable, and may even provide a slight speed boost.

Enjoy having the site back,

-Zack

 

Edit: It looks like you can also now edit your profile image by going to account –> edit profile –> scroll down to profile picture.

Good job Zach! Looks like those changes should do the trick. Tech problems can be a huge pain. I can totally relate. 😀. Well done sir!

Thanks Zack ! I was having serious withdrawal issues. Didn’t know if it was the site, or my dumb ass computer, or if I just couldn’t remember how to get on. I’m doing much better now.

I haven’t had to reset the server once this week!!! Awesome… Maybe that should of been our indication it was about to crash??

Zack… Thank you.. Very much… Your helping keep us all connected!!!!   You don’t realize how much you miss it, till it’s not there… 😎  We’ve been broadcasting out shit to the world for a long long long long time now.. Longer than most, and unlikely to ever stop…. 😎

I cleaned up the slider a bit and added more photos. I’m going to try and keep them fresh and switch a few out every so often, so keep the Badass Photos thread updated and I’ll poach some pictures from there!!
