They'd be lucky to get you Gavin, but the reality is they think they're doing ok. The last time I complained about it they told me to check t...

Their site is database driven and they seem to self-host over their corporate Internet link without using distributed caching to help with load. Yes, but this has been going on for years and the same thing happens every ti...

Re: General fire discussions

Hi all,
