    Computer Chat People from other sites

    I love posting on Bigfooty which is another forum. Anyway I came across a thread that I haven't posted in started by somebody who doesn't know a lot of things.
    He started a thread thinking that vBulletin was a server.

    vBulletin are responsibly for this: Due to our increased popularity, the server is too busy at the moment so we're rationing resources. Please try again in a few minutes. You can avoid all busy messages like this one by joining the BigFooty Supporters Club. It's the best deal in town...



    It is a big LOL to those people.

      That's the funny thing - the guy won't change servers.

        The fact that some person thought that vBulletin was a server was funny. The fact that the admin who I know personally won't upgrade the server that he uses which is shocking means that he's stubborn or doesn't know what to do.

            vB5 is unequivocally the best forum software, but not yet...

              He's got plenty of cash. He's just tight with his money.

                I have emailed him with the link of a server that I use that is cheap and is awesome.

                  His server is probably gigantic when you look at the amount of posts he has (especially compared to your forum), then also look at the rest of his forum network. I really doubt he's even got the time to read your "suggestion" of a new server...

                  Also, I think some of you are missing the point of that whole thread. Either way, no reason posting this on here just to try to badmouth other admins.

                    I agree with Rocket here
                    his site has 15 MILLION post
                    yours has less then 15 hundred post
                    I'm sure the host you use wouldn't even put a dent on his site

                    ps.. it does seem odd you made this thread here just to bash the admins of a site that looks like it's doing very well

                      What? Someone thought vBulletin was a server?
                      That's almost as funny as someone thinking FireFox is a Flash application.

                              Folks, @schwab2clarkson is a known troll on all BIG sites. She has been repeatedly banned from BigFooty and it's sister properties. We are dealing with our server issues as best we can. She's here because she can't be there. Now if only she would stop friending me.
