RE: OK, I'll be the first to ask . . .

[Opalsns]

yeah, but rick said that there's no need to do that,

and that he was making ends meet with what he had from donations, and he hasn't posted yet that he needs anything. and from his other post on the last thread about this topic..


I'm sure that if he needs, he will ask, and we shall respond, but I think that before we hit the panic button and flood Rick with our concerns, I think we should wait and see what he has to say about the situation

All things considered, does he HAVE to ask ???????

he's made it clear in the past when we've tried to give, that when he needs it, he'll ask for it.

Your already a donating member!!! And Medaweislalalalala does all the monthly paperwork for the news letter!!!!

Calm down people. It's nice for people to donate, but we don't need to scream and holler at everyone that doesn't. There is a donation button on the front page who don't want to wait to be asked.

Before we freak out we havent heard from Rick to let us know what is up. I to am flustered about not being able to log on, it's a fluke that I made it this time. I would like to think that it is a software issue and not a money issue. If it is a software issue Rick will be on top of it just like any other time. So give him a chance. If its a money issue we have screwed up again!. The donation thing has never worked. There is nothing I would love more then to have to be a paying member to post in the forumns.(well except for hot tubing with the dallas cowboy cheerleaders). I think that 5 or 10 dollars is a bit low to use the site. So, again if its a money issue lets up the donations.

I would like to ask a question about the bandwidth issue.

Is the bandwidth issue meaning that to many folks are logged on to GCmaine? So while it appears to be down for me is it working for someone else?

No...and I got the suspension notice with others too.

I thought for sure when the site wouldn't work that it had something to do with FFJ's story. I was afraid we might all have our computers confiscated for just reading this type of story. I immediately deleted everything in my hard drive, just in case. I can't get the image of a firefighter wearing only his helmet and boots running through the woods spying on teen love.

It started out as someone mentioned. We exceeded our bandwidth again. I have been bumping the bandwidth up every month. I found another issue with the server during the bandwidth problem and asked my support team to fix it and there was a misunderstanding and the suspended it. I resolved that but the bandwidth is still issue that is interfering with what I am working on with the support team.

Please bear with me. I am going to increase the bandwidth once again but I have to resolve the other problem first.

I said there was no need because I just got tired of trying to explain myself and the usage and all that stuff and got frustrated. I set the bandwidth higher last month to a limit I did not think we would reach and we did reach it. When I posted that message last month my intention was to let it go and if we reach the limit I was going to leave the site down until it reset at the first of the month. Other things threw a loop in that and I am working on those things now. As I said I will raise the limit one more time and see what happens.
