I’m getting spoiled!!! You’re loading faster than ArsTechnica for heaven’s sake! I can’t go back, i WON’T go back, i’ve never felt this free! free, like a bird in the sky…
:: throws rocks, I mean rotten produce at TT ::
I can see it now… Every third thread in ATMB is "Why is this board so fast???"
Zoom! Zoom!
Even on my crappy dial up.
ZOOM!!
My Gawd woman, how did you ever get 4000+ post with a dial up? You are a robot who never does anything but post from three separate machines all day, right? You are some kind of test program for hanger 51,… right?
Come on, give us the secret.
Dialup isn’t so slow; the bottleneck for the SDMB has always been elsewhere.
Yeah, well done to whoever did this. It’s great.
Are we allowed to ask what changed? Or would the Illuminati be offended?
Well hell, that’d slow it down…
:: off to do that ::
BTW, I’m on dialup, too. It doesn’t matter so much how you get here, it’s when you get here and how many other people are here, too. 
Damn. They are on to me.
Yes, that woman passing herself off as Arden Ranger is merely the programmer.
But she’s programmed herself one hot personality! 
Gus, I think her secret is that there’s not a whole lot else to do out in Oklahoma. 
That too.
Sure, go ahead and ask all you want!

What happened is that the Chicago Reader threw some money into jdavis’ lap, and jdavis, being the swell guy he is, upgraded the hardware for the server instead of spending it all on hookers and cheap wine.
Thank you, jdavis.
You’re a better man than I, Gunga jdavis…
Fear not Tars; while I’ve certainly enjoyed the improvement in the last few days, I’ve had a couple of time-outs tonight.
Given how well things went, I hope jdavis kept some money for hookers and cheap wine, jdavis deserves it!
Hey, no floozies for JDavis–only the best.
<< gets on the horn to the Playboy Enterprises Chicago office, explains to Christie Hefner how very, very important it is for her to send Miss December over to the Chicago Reader right away with a couple of “To JDavis–For A Very Good Little Boy” gift tags attached to her…jingle bells >>
Virtual liquor to follow shortly…
YOWZA! YOU DA MAN, JDAVIS! I prostrate myself in front of Your Worshipfullness. O, happy joy, and joyous happy… ness!
OK, I’ll go now…
But thank you!

Kudos to jdavis! If you’re ever down my way, I’ll buy you a drink or three. Or hookers and cheap wine, if you prefer.
