Eric Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Exceeded bandwidth for the month, my bad! Should be all set now, added a few more gigs per month to the quota -- I'll pay closer attention for the next couple months. Sorry about that 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Posted February 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 I just wanted you guys know that everything is fine, and that the forum isn't on the Precipice of Total Implosion™ I've got plenty of bandwidth to spare, no need for donations! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catherine Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Thank you once again for ALL that you do for us!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gail in Virginia Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Thanks, Eric. Probably all of the rants about ATX are increasing the bandwidth we use. We appreciate this forum, and all that you do to look out for us! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Posted February 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Yes, the forum has seen a lot more traffic this year than last, and the trouble people are having likely accounts for much of the difference. I feel like I should say it again: I've got gobs of unallocated bandwidth available. It's no problem to throw another 5gb at this site's quota to get us through the last couple days of the month.

I love it when you talk computer and I don't understand it but it gets me excited anyway. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaelmars Posted February 28, 2013 Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 is the extra costing you extra money? time for everyone to pony up to the bar again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Posted February 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 No! It's not costing me any extra. It just slightly reduces the amount of bandwidth I wasn't using for anything else anyway. If I were closer to my limit, it might matter, but if I were that close to my limit, I'd buy a bigger chunk every month. So quit sending me money! Seriously though, the donations are appreciated, I'll use them to renew my software subscriptions in a couple months but that's not why I made the thread. If anyone noticed the scary BANDWIDTH EXCEEDED message for that few minutes, I didn't want an already shell shocked bunch of tax preparers to freak out and break computers in a Chinese airport or something. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kea Posted February 28, 2013 Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 I saw it but didn't panic. Thought at first it was my phone then realized it was the site. Just went to a different forum to catch up over there. I do plan to make another donation before too long. It's been a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcb39 Posted February 28, 2013 Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 I got the strangest message today on this site. It said "Three members have removed you as a friend. Would you like to know who they are?" When I clicked on it, it disappeared. Now I will never know who doesn't want me for a friend. Makes me sad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCL Posted February 28, 2013 Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 mcb39...it wasn't me, but i really don't play or understand social media protocol. my guess, it is a google advertising conspiracy...don't take it personal or google wins. fwiw, i like you!

kcjenkins Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 For anyone who is not aware of it, you CAN set 'friends' on this forum. Look at the very top of the page, click on your name, and look at the menu that pops up. One of the options is 'Manage Friends'. There you can select members to add to your Friends list. You also have the option to "Ignore" a member who you find too irritating , and then you will not see that person's posts. I've never used that, but there was a time........almost did............but Bob left the board before I got quite that far. LOL Anyway, if you have never gone to 'your profil'e, you should check out the options there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
