[Spooner]

very nice, very nice

now what about those "...other features to come" ?

 

[AgaBoogaBoo]

This freakin' awesome!

Anand: Thanks for understanding the position of the users and working around whatever problem may have been in the way of keeping the subscriber features going. I'd like to tell you that doing this is going to please many of the users and that this has made me happy to see that the AT staff wasn't going to leave us hanging with no options.

Zuni: Thanks for carrying out the instructions I'm guessing you and Anand decided upon together. This seems to be a position where both the end user and the providers are happy. Oh yeah, thanks for solving server problems you mentioned in this Forums section earlier.

AT Staff: Thanks for the great site/forums/reviews you all provide. :sun:

Oh yeah, :cookie;

Have a :beer:, all of you!

Hehe, true, this upgrade should last us a year of demands

 

[Actaeon]

Wooohoo! Thanks Zuni!

 

[vi edit]

So ummm...could we uh...slip a mod a little cash on the side for a *cough* higher PM limit *cough*

 

[Antoneo]

good god, man, it's already going to 500!

Zuni: Quad Opterons or Xeons? Can you have the old Duallies host game servers? Unfortunately Narzi couldn't get the resources but you already have them. I would also like perhaps a page about the hardware running the forums, CPUs, memory, you get the idea.

Anand: Can we have an article on this upgrade like the previous upgrade? That would be swell.

Everyone: Why are you so happy about 500 PMs? I rarely use that feature let alone having 2 PMs!

Thanks and keep up the good work!
