As you may have noticed, we we're offline this morning. This was caused by the "Thanks" plug-in going rogue and using up way too many server resources. This triggered an automatic suspension by our hosting provider as they thought it was a malicious attack. The "Thanks" plug-in has been disabled, hopefully temporarily so I can determine if that was indeed the cause, and take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.
I apologize for the disruption and for any confusion that may have caused.

I have to admit, the topic of online privacy is sturring up all sorts of heavy self-examination. Luckily, I just remembered there is a certain deals thread where I can forget my troubles.
Living a comeback montage.

Obviously the decision rests with @ManOnTime and the mods, but personally I would feel more comfortable if:
1. The archived video was eventually removed from Youtube after some reasonable amount of time
2. Future meetings could be more ephemeral (like in real life)
3. We found other ways to accommodate members outside of North America (e.g. holding parallel summits in multiple timezones or rotating the timezones that the meeting is held)
If things go really well, eventually maybe we can all meet up for a party at River Edge in NJ!

That would be pretty epic. I'm already planning my road-trip. (I don't fly.)TheJohnP wrote: ↑Tue May 12, 2020 9:05 pmpeskydonut wrote: ↑Tue May 12, 2020 7:47 pm
