    Suspension for high system resources - 3rd warning

    I received a suspension this morning for high system resources, 3rd time. The last time I had issues with this was a mod to SMF causing it. If unsuspended, I would like to examine my error logs in SMF and other factors to attempt to locate the issue. I am not doing anything malicious to...

    Thanks. I think I found the culprit.

    High resources issue

    Tonight, I received the following notice for a suspension: The only thing I have been actively running on my hosting account is an SMF forum (v2.0 RC2). Is there anything in particular that may have caused high resource usage with this? I am concerned as I've now gotten the suspension notice...

    Why do the Japanese get all the good %$#&? :(

    keeping text files & personal bookmarks in protected directory

    It's certainly easy enough to do, and I don't see any reason why you wouldn't be allowed to, unless said files violated some kind of law or x10's ToS

    Virtualization vs Dual Boot

    Having a machine with 8 GB of RAM, I tend to favor virtualization. It gives me far more flexibility to do what I want with things, without interfering much with hardware. I swear the fact that I get the latest version of VMWare Workstation free (and legally) has nothing to do with my...

    Activation codes sent to mobiles

    Mac OSX users aren't immune to viruses. They're just more naive about them. But back on topic, I believe said sites are making a mistake by requiring texting for their users to be able to validate their humanity, as they do exclude a lot of people in the process.

    Social: FaceBook VS MySpace VS LiveJournal VS Others

    I will be the first to admit that I hate pretty much all social networking sites, if not for the way they are designed or some other technical aspect, then for the people who tend to make said sites the mainstay of their lives and social basis. Does anyone else here remember when we actually...

    Which social networking sites do you like??

    I am personally an equal opportunity hater of all social networking sites short of LinkedIn for professional use, so I passed on voting here. I find myspace and facebook to be categorically useless.

    How to earn credits quickly?

    Pretty much this. Spam is great in spam areas, but outside of there, duplicate topics tend to get old really quick, and don't typically generate that much for people anyways.

    A Message from Green Peace

    GP was trespassing on French military property. What the deuce did they think would happen. They're just fortunate that the French have a sense of humor and didn't shoot them.

    Internal Server Error

    I would love to see lotus fixed soooo badly right now. My account has been nearly unusable for several days, and if it keeps up, I may look elsewhere for hosting.

    Deals on software

    You're close. Generally the deals are negotiated with groups of colleges and other educational institutions.

    Exact difference in uptime?

    Free is far from 99.9%, especially lately. Thankfully the downtime moments tend to be more just spotty occurrances, rather than large blocks of downtime.

    what is your favourite online game?

    I play two browser-based games right now: Cyber Nations (www.cybernations.net) is a nation/political simulator with about 27,000 players, in which I lead a small alliance called EPIC (Embattled Primarchy of Independent Citizens). It's a nice game with great, active community. The Fall...
