Title: TradGang little known Fact #2
Post by: Terry Green on October 07, 2013, 07:22:00 PM: Hardware Requirements - Two state-of-the-art servers/hot (Live TradGang) and Spare (emergency back up and St Jude's) - A new server is required at least every 3 years.

We grew so fast during one 3 year period we had to buy new servers every year. (Main issue was trying to stop the St Jude's Auction from crashing like it was during final bids and leaving a lot of money on the table for the kids)

You two guys have done and continue to do a great job with this site. I know it's a lot of work and I thank you both.

Post by: Hopewell Tom on October 08, 2013, 05:41:00 AM: You took typing in high school. Should be a requirement these days.

I tried to get my son to do that as I was pecking away, he had the chance but he wouldn't. Got mine in the end (kind of) when he told me later that he should have listened.
The unseen part of this site must be like having another job, without the money part.

Thanks for everything.
