Bandwidth Problems

Okay guys, Our wonderful server here gives us 100 beautiful Gigabytes of data transfer every month. When I purchased this package originally, I thought "what on God's green earth would take up 100gb/month?" Well, guess what takes up nearly 150gb/mo? sitDiary. So, here's the thing - we may experience some down time for a couple days while I work out the upgrade with my system administrator. This is all coming out of my pocket though and it aint cheap. So if any of you would like to donate, or set up your paid accounts early .. just let me know, and once we're upgraded, everybody should be back to being happy. Let's hope. -Scott --------------------------------------- Don't worry, you WILL NOT LOSE YOUR DIARY ENTRIES. --------------------------------------- P.S. I'm disabling images for a while - let's see how long that preserves bandwidth. ---------------------------------------
Donate Any Amount
------------------------------------------- Note: Donations aren't mandatory, but very helpful in any amount! A BIG thank you to Aaron E, Ashley H, Kristin V and CHAD!!! I won't forget. Also - the disk space isn't the problem people, it's the bandwidth. Explanation: Say you were limited in the amount of water you could get pumped to your house, oh let's say ... 10,000 gallons per month. Anyway.. so let's say for some odd reason, you start to use 500 gallons a day. Uh-oh! 20 days of supply = stinky ~10 days of no showering in a 30 day month. Same thing, pretty much.

Actually removing some of the older diaries that haven't been used might help a bit. I know a lot of people that use the random function and that would bring some of the older ones up using up the bandwidth. The amount of bandwidth saved might be too minute but its just a thought.

I just wanted to add that maybe, hopefully, you'll have more people who would like to contribute. I really enjoy using your site, and think it's worth it, considering how user friendly it is.

I have some (what I consider) very valuable information on your server. You are welcome.

How would one be able to pay for an account..? I can't use paypal, I don't have anything except cash. No checks, no credit cards, nothing.

i agree with iloveyou....so many people on here havent updated since november..and if you send them some kind of email warning them that their diaries will be closed then it should be fine...

other then that..how much would it be if you had to pay for sitD?
[Anonymous]

Hey!!
I wish i could donate.I'm 14 and maybe i'll get a paid account when i turn 15 and get a job and can actual have money to pay,if my parents let me.

[Anonymous]
yes as i failed to mention before.. i don't have any money either. :(. it sucks how i'm a lowly 15 year old girl no job or anything, who isn't supposed to HAVE a journal b/c her parents believe rapists will find her out. well.. luck to you wish i could help
ahhhhhhhhhh i ok with that but there no chance we can loose are diarie entrys
how long will the images be down for? b/c you can't even read my journal w/ out them.. i understand theres problems but yeah
i could live without images as long as i can still write.. but as a 15 year old with barely a job.. donating is kinda hard. i'll still try though. how much is a paid account?

Hey I just sent you 20 bucks. Hope that will help some. How much is a paid account?
just from looking at diaries, some people havent updated since december. some even from november...maybe if you clean these diaries out that arent being used it will clear up some space? just a thought so the site can stay up i would die without it :D
