[QUOTE=cas97;25607602]Actual advice: you should write your social networking site and get it known before buying a building.
Just look at Notch, creator of Minecraft. He's just now getting a building and the company too.
Garry did this as well.[/QUOTE]
People who expect huge results and move on all the big shit before they have their creation, usually fail in doing so.
That's what I'm saying, and that he doesn't need a building to get started.

[QUOTE=StinkyJoe;25588394]Is your server made of cardboard or are you not caching thumbnails or something? That thing loads like it's 1995 and I'm on a 200mbps+ connection.[/QUOTE]
You're right. I've been struggling to figure out what the issue is as everything "appears" to be fine but as soon as I increase the number of apache processes it crashes. It's weird, sometimes it will run slow with 50 users online and other times it loads speedily with 200+ users. I've got a 512mb VPS with slicehost at the moment but I'm thinking of just dumping all of the images on amazons CDN.
To answer your question, yes, all images are cached.

Firstly, Amazon's CDN is shit expensive. Secondly, don't use Apache. Thirdly, I can set you up with some high availability, super fast file hosting (I host thebest404pageever's files)
What do you suggest instead of Apache? I'm not really that familiar with any other web servers

Yes, because it's been a poorly coded and badly designed website from the get go. (and by design here I mean UX not visual design, although that has been shitty too)

I switched to Facebook for the sole reason of avoiding "Bulletins". They were essentially a public forum for people to send private messages to eachother in public, I never actually saw a bulletin be used for a public reason. It was always "IM TOO GOOD 4 U, FK U FGT U NO WHO U R"
