"Upgrades soon"
« on: June 23, 2009, 10:21:00 am »
From the FA twitter:
Quote from: furaffinity
Tiamat server's CPUs have been pushed to their limit. Our database server has been (lovingly) used and abused. Upgrades soon.

I don't remember their asinine server naming scheme, only that one is named after some idiotic web cartoon. And I can't find anything about this on either the mainsite or the forum. Are they going to try and make us forget that they upgraded to something fucking outlandish just recently?

Remember, when the server chokes on your shitty code, the problem isn't your shitty code, it's just that the server isn't powerful enough!

Why have competent people rewrite their backend when they can just beg for donations from fifty thousand manchildren members?

Because they either manage to piss off anyone approaching competence or acquire outright idiots for the simple reason that they're popular. Meantime, ferrox hasn't had a published commit in a month.

This honestly doesn't surprise me.
