  • Positive Encouragement

    I know this server issue has been a pain in the *ss, and that you guys have probably been busting them all the same. But I just wanted to express my appreciation that you're working through the issues. I guess a couple of days living without makes the appreciation become clearer.

    You guys will solve it one of these days.
    I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

            There have been discussions in the past about some sort of payment to ensure a fast working service. Back then it was dismissed. But is there anything the members can do to help to put Apolyton back in full business. If you need money for a server or whatnot, post a bankaccount number and let the people who want to, make a donation. A lot of the posters are poor students, but some of us have decnt jobs and I for one wouldn't mind making a (modest ) donation, if it would be of any help.

            Good luck anyway!
            Well, lets just imagine my question is not hypothetical then...

              Well it is good that is has been moved over on to the other server which should mean it is stable and speedy. I presume you must need to take down the other server to do extensive work on it. Let's face it, it hasn't been too reliable

                    Just got an idea from someone on about thread starting after some mention of The Prodigy. Just flicked into my mind. I'm glad someone has found it entertaining

                          Positive encouragement is an oxymoron

                          Ever heard of negative encouragement?
                          Any views I may express here are personal and certainly do not in any way reflect the views of my employer. Tis the rising of the moon..

                          Look, I just don't anymore, okay?

                            Negative encouragement would be an oxymoron.

                            Positive encouragement is redundant.

                            I'm sure someone would have pointed this out, but I just wanted the post.

                              The admins did a pretty good job, except for the part of losing several hundred posts.
