On the top headline right now, read "The funniest college paper on Oedipus you will ever read". When I saw the headline I knew which essay it was referring to, and thought it had gotten big and was going to be linked from a "real" site as opopsed to a forum..but here it went.

So which one of you guys submitted it?

Check out what it did to the number of page views, currently at 93,000 😱

Yeah, think 93000 page views x the 7 pages on there, not couting how many times it's been sent to other people and whatnot..and that's a crazy amount of bandwidth used.
 
Poor Sully. 🙁

This is REALLY bad for us (modeps in particular)

01:05:39 up 7:09, 1 user, load average: 75.04, 74.09, 73.74

Mind you a load average of, oh, 4.00 is considered high.

Well that was the result of a corrupt table. This is on top of it 🙁

I had to 86 the code for keeping track of hits for now. Too many writes at once. Usage is back to normal.

It would be nice if "So" moved the pics somewhere else. This is going to kill the servers BW.
