Nice prize...<G>...but was it a regular version or a M model?

I always wondered who was the first real member (not a MOD or family member of Scott's) of the site.

"xdanmlx" is user #2. Oldest thread I can find.

Good!
I'm also very happy that the server seems to be keeping up nicely with the traffic. I've never had it time out before.

I took some steps 2 weeks ago to make sure that all server resources where dedicated to this site and associated traffic. Otherwise, I think we would have been seeing a slow down.

 

[JetwingX]

so scott, at what point do you estimate that the servers would give out due to traffic?

 

[ScottW]

Well, things are cruizing along just fine. So, unless we get slashdotted, we should be fine. We could even handle slashdot if I knew it was coming.
