Thanks for your participation! I think the jury's still out on this one. Thank you for your thoughts though. A new poll up, courtesy in part by mellowmut :-)
Alright our server is back up and running. They swapped out our hdds with another box and it looks like that solved the problem. Hopefully the website has sped up for a few people--and hopefully we don't have this problem again.
Hey everyone, just to let you guys know what's been going on today...
We lost one of our servers yesturday. We aren't sure why, but we suspect it is a hardware problem. We emailed Layeredtech about it yesturday, and they STILL haven't responded. We have no choice but to find a different server for the mysql, and restore the latest backup we had, which is about 2 days old. Sorry about that, and sorry about any performance problems that there might be over the next few days, as we figure things out.
Thanks, BU-Staff

Okay, yes, I know--we should have had this feature a LONG time ago; however I just so happened to have about 20 minutes tonight to make this great addition to the site. You can find the option at the bottom of the series page, or you can jump there now by clicking here!
Enjoy the new feature.
[edit] Also, think i fixed the "Search for releases of this series" in the series page. Lots of people have been complaining about that. [/edit]

I'm back. I was gone for a few days because of school (too much hw piled up before break). This is particularly why there are a few older releases up today.
Thankfully, the site was still able to operate while I was gone. I'd like to continue to encourage people to use the release submission tool! It's main purpose is to increase update speed and quality. So don't be shy! Register today and have control over how people see your releases.

Yet beneath his regal bearing lies a pained existence that haunts his very soul.
