It's amazing how far that thread went. Seems like every other auto enthusiast board knew about it.

Scary.

If you notice, on the bottom of the main forums page, there were 842 people on the site at once this morning. I managed to be one of the 5 members.

I havn't been on for like two days now. I was pulling out my hair . Thats not a bad idea, making the dealer pay for bandwidth, although, I'm sure Dan made some money off of this.

Yep... We've been getting hammered silly ever since yesterday afternoon. Last night it got so bad the web server was basically unresponsive because it had a 1000+ request back log at any given second.

I've spent all evening and all night setting up another box (Dual 1 Ghz P3's w/768 MB Ram) just to run the forums on for the time being to handle the load. That's why you can now get back on the site again!

Gnarly! Not how many people, but the fact that there is a page that tells you what everyone is doing!

I really should explore this site someday.

Take care,

Dan, thanks for keeping the site running during this fiasco.

So, did someone start posting a link to this thread on every auto site known to man or what?

I can't believe we had 872 people on the boards at one time. No wonder I couldn't get on with my speedy dial-up. DSL in less than 30 days - I can't wait.

Ever feel like you're really hungover, and walking through a swimming pool filled with Jello?

That's what MW feels like right now.

I'm eager for this to end, too.

Take care,
~Chris

I never knew you could see who is online and what they are doing either

I see that the record for most users online at one time was broken yesterday. I think that thread will make a few records for MustangWorks. I can't believe it's already had 98000 views.
I don't think some dude driving a cobra is the news of the century
