Almost veryday I post here, I have found glitches. This happens whe I reply in a thread. The page upload only...void content.

I hope I'm expressing myself in the correct way.

yeah...its been a rough week or two on the org...i keep getting the white page of death.

Is this the work...sabotage from some disgruntled fams?

Me too!!


Ben!!! oohhhhh bennnnn!!!!

Any time I see the org go white, I just assume someone was trying to move a thread. It happens every single time I try to move one.

why does the org glitch?

becasue you touch yourself at night?

Tonight is the pits!

I've gotten the white screen a lot during the past few days. Sometimes, if I select Forums, I get a blank screen, or just half the page on the main page. It's making me .

I almost always get TWSOD when I log out

I'm getting a bit aggrevated by the glitches as I get them almost every day. I keep getting the message, "Internet Explorer Cannot Display The Webpage". I also have the problem where only the left side of the home page will be visible. The last problem is when I select forums, orgnotes or my org and I sometimes get the same error message.

Is there a problem with the server? Does Prince.Org need a new server?

Even my comments about the god damned glitches don't post



I live an eternity without the search function if the glitches would just go away!!!!






Actually, I'm kind of living with both aren't I?

I think I've come to accept that prince.org is always going to be down at leasts a dozen times daily.

It averages about 4 to 5 times an hour now.

That's well over a dozen times daily.

Does anyone know what is causing this? I'm sure if the org took donations enough of us would chip in to get it fixed.

I think people have offered donations many times and nothing comes of it. From MY experience (and I don't do this anymore because of it), if you search too far back using the LIMIT TO THREADS FROM feature it can cause the forum to go down for a few minutes. I think this might be at least a partial cause.

Somebody has to do something about this shit. Has anyone even thought of mentioning this to Ben? If so, what did he say?

I believe when Ben has posted on it in the past he's said it's not really the donations, just that he's got other priorities right now and doesn't have the time to put in the amount of work necessary.

I've noticed also that it's gotten particularly bad the last week. I guess we just get to hang tight.

I've been posting on housequake alot lately.








housequake people!

It's gotten worse even in just the last 2 days.

It really has... almost every time I post, I then get TWSOD.

Imago said:

i don't wanna go to housequake

if ben doesn't have time to fix it, why doesn't he let someone else? i'm sure there's others who can & are willing...right?

The glitches are getting so bad that I'm very close to packing up and saying "bye bye" to the Org. It's frustrating to type out a huge response only for the site to crap out when you try and post it, and if you didn't save it, you've lost it. Also, constantly getting the "White Screen of Death" when trying to browse the forums... it's just terrible.

can we set up a paypal account to help pay for a new server?

Really if the org needs a new server I think setting up a PayPal account and accepting donations is a great idea. I belong to another website,"TreasureNet" and it was having a lot of problems because of the server. The owner of that site set up a PayPal account and anyone that wanted to donate did. In about 2 months we had enough money for a new server and the problem was fixed and the site is more enjoyable.

Here is what TreasureNet ordered as their new server. I have no idea if this compares with what Prince.org has currently.

Dell PowerEdge 2850

Dual Xeon, 3.2GHz 2MB Cache 800 Bus Processors

4GB DDR RAM

2x73GB 10K RPM SCSI Hard Drives - RAID1

4x147GB 10K RPM SCSI Hard Drives - RAID5

Dual channel Ultra 320 Perc 4/Di controller with 256 Megs Cache

6 bay hot swap Ultra 320 SCA backplane, setup as 1 x 6

Two integrated Gigabit Ethernet

... as well as miscellaneous other things... but there is the meat!

i think as carrie said it would still mean ben would have to set up the new server and do the stuff necessary to move the org over to it... and he doesn't have that time.


ben! let us help

So any responses here?


I would be willing to help.

Maybe making it a pay site just so we don't lose a whole response we typed or just get "the white page of death"?

And at first I thought something was wrong with my computer....now I know it's happening to others as well. Gee, I feel better.
