Sixgun Sheridan Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Only watch CNN if you don't mind destroying precious brain cells. Currently they're lauding that Ocasio-Ortez chick as a hero for chasing 25,000 high-salary jobs away from her NY district. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 There are many suggestions.i have been involved in these kinds of problems for most of my career. My questions are, does SASS own the server or rent the service? after that many questions arise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramblin Gambler Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 On 2/15/2019 at 8:25 AM, Cliff Hanger #3720LR said: This may be true but looking at the thread count on the main page shows that there are over 1100 threads still in the forum going back over 10 years. If everything is archived every six months, it appears to me that the threads are not deleted from the forum after archiving. This will double the amount of data stored on the server. The software has a limit on data saved. Data that is archived can be searchable if the forum search switch is activated. This eliminates having to also have the data in the original forum data base. If the data storage limit has been reached, the software has to move data around sort of like defragmenting a disk to find a space for new data or a search request. Archiving is good but the original data in a forum should be deleted or moved off the forum, off server and on to a storage disk to be saved and accessible later. Posts older than 6 months are not searchable using the tools on the wire. You can find them with a google search sometimes, just not a forum search. So I don't think they save them in the original forum DB once they are archived. Also, I think it's threads that are 6 months inactive that get archived, but that's going from memory and is a quibble at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD Trampas, SASS # 55781 Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 For the money we pay for dues it is very hard to figure out why they can't get this website up to date and speedy. Other websites are faster than this and I don't pay a dime to belong to them and I also post on those with no problems. I think SASS needs to hire a IT guy to run this or at least get somebody that knows what is going on. If this keeps up I'm believing quite a few people will not renew when it comes time, they rely on this forum to ask questions and get answers and also to learn about cowboy things. This is not the first this has happened, it seems like this goes on and on and on all the time, it gets fixed and then a week later back to the old slow wire, getting pretty old real fast, listen up SASS, get it together.

Tyrel Cody Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Question for you @Pat Riot, SASS #13748 Have you attempted to message any of our moderators? @Sam C. Moderator @Eliphalet R.

Subdeacon Joe Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 This thread makes me happy. Imagine, having nothing more urgent than a slow social media forum to grouse about. I'll grant that when I'm trying to access it on my phone it is a bit of an annoyance, but at home, using my desktop I will hit "open in new tab" on something I want to read, and open another tab for other social media and just switch between the tabs. The wonder of the dancing bear is not the grace with which it dances, but that it dances at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eliphalet R. Moderator Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 At the request of several of you who have posted here, I merged all the SLOW threads... and then you complain because they are merged? Really?? The Moderators do not have magic wands. We can not make the Wire go faster. Personally, I will wait until the SASS Office is open for business again during the week, and I will call them, during office hours. If they can give me an update, I will let you know. Have any of you SASS members who seem to have plenty of time to complain done the polite thing and called? If you have, why haven't YOU posted here?

At a time of year when participants are preparing for big matches like WR and prepping to send in applications for EOT the best way of communicating information about SASS and the sport is poorly performing and they don’t know there is a problem?

We mods can't do anything about the speed. I'll call early next week (like Tuesday since Monday is a federal holiday) and see if I can get some info for you." would have helped to gruntle the disgruntled.
