Sorry for the site issues the last few days. Caesar has been working on it. While not my area of expertise.. What has happened is our site is constantly hit by spammers. Every time someone tries to spam the site, the spam email is put in a file ( by site software) . Our hosting company only allows X amount of files which we should not get close too. But we are now getting literally getting 10,000 spam emails every other day. All those are put in files and overloading the site. They were coming in faster than the host company could delete the files. Caesar is working on it, those files should soon no longer be saved. We bought some more band with to help in the mean time as well.

We also due another major update similar to when I took over the site, it is a relatively expensive one, +/- 3500, so if any of you chose to hit the donate button, it would be appreciated.

We may have some issues over the next few days and then we should be back to normal. Thanks for your patience and sorry for the issues.

Is the smallest donation amount $50? Can we donate something like $20 at a time? That's less painful. :-).

Great site. Thanks for hosting it.

I thought the Russians were hacking your site because of all of the money you made after your Runoffs win. All of the Big Financial sites have been down lately. :king:

I really think a disgruntled SM driver was pissed that no video, data or track notes were posted. Same driver hacked the site looking for the secret files to no avail and left 100000000 pictures of Hungarian porn on the site.

Not sure if anyone has noticed.. But the site is now 4X faster than it was and has 4x as much memory. Has anyone noticed the speed increase?
Hopefully this will help with some of the issues that we have had the last 3-4 months
Thanks

Yup, it's faster. Also, when viewing Saul's transmission videos there is no stop and catch-up since a couple days ago.

Great job Caesar, oh, and Jim. :clap: Also, the white background for the icon selection is nice. :scratchchin:
