  • hello! thank you very much for getting the server back up, if you did do that. if you didn't, I may as well crawl back into my hobbit hole.

    I have to take credit for taking the server down as well. I was doing updates and ran into issues - normally it doesn't take that long. :)
    Hi! I want to thank you and he rest of the admins for working so hard and getting RPN back up again! I thank you so much for the good you guys have done for all of us
    Ghan, how did you end up in your current career? I'm coming up to a professional crossroads, and I'm trying to decide if I should stick with graphics and take a marketing route, or go back to school and actually use my IT degree to study something like database management.
    Yo dude! Just found out you were sys admin for the site, that's so groovy my man! I was wondering if this is proper job you get paid to do, or if it's all for fun. Been studying computer science for a while so just asking.

    Excellent question! For RpNation, I've been the local sysadmin for some years, but this is a volunteer job that I do for fun. However, I do work in the industry. I have a degree in CS and I work as a Systems Engineer in IT. My current responsibilities don't intersect much with what RpNation has going, but that's not to say it can't. Right now in my day job, I manage things like VMware, Cisco UCS blade servers, Pure Storage arrays, and Windows Server deployments. RpNation, on the other hand, uses a simple dedicated server running CentOS Linux with RpNation being one of several VMs running on this particular server. It's similar to a VPS in that regard, but the difference is that I manage the entire server and set up all the VMs - it isn't as though there are other customers on this server.
    Elf man with a name of red,
    Allow me please to remove your head,
    Tibias and fingers I’ve collected galore,
    But I think I need a skull to even the score,
    Wait, you thought I was merely asking, you surely jest,
    This knife in my hand suggests this is no mere request,
    Stop squirming now, if you comply it’ll be quick,
    This isn’t the first time I’ve stolen bones, I’ve picked up many a trick.

    what am I doing lmao

    Heh. Nothing personnel, kid.

    That won't be necessary. I'm planning taking down the site for maintenance anyway, so I expect intense hatred coming my way soon enough.

    Yeah. I figured our SSDs could move faster than 5 GB/minute. I've never done this before so I had no idea how long it would take.
    I am just not having much luck lately.

    Don't care. You get gourmet chocolate chip cookies anyway. And hugs. If you like hugs. Or maybe kittens? Kittens purring?

    Whatever you like, Ghan. Because you're really cool like that. =)
