Default Really though... Whats up with RCU

For the past couple of months this site has not been working right.. Whats up with the pictures failing to upload and when they do you can only do one at a time or else it makes the pictures super sized..? Error messages to complete website failures.. Sometimes it only feels like letting you see the home page... Its like RCU has a mind of its own.

They are moving servers, But it is taking way to long to sort it out.

for some reason The Shark can only write in third person

The Shark was disappointed when he had to go to work without checking RCU because it wouldn't load.

I actually haven't had any problems. I think a month ago the site went down for me for maybe an hour or two, but then again I haven't tried to upload any photos either

Default RE: Really though... Whats up with RCU

Only thing I had happen was an error message saying the site didn't exist. Happened a few times over the past few days. Came back up each time, but maybe 15 minutes later.

What I noticed more is the number of RCU members being rude these days. Rude to Newbies mostly, although there's other times as well. I thought it might be attributed to pre-Christmas jitters, but I see it's still going on.

Now if RCU could add software to censor rudeness.......

I've noticed that a lot of the people being rude to the newbies, are basically newbies who asked the same questions like a month before, and act big and bad cause they got 100 posts on their name (mostly from asking 85 questions about traxxas rustlers, and stuff like that...).


Other day I wasn't able to upload pics for 15 hours... kept getting 500 server errors

Ive noticed that as well. Other people picking on the new guy.
I get tired of reading people answering the same question over and over again.
That not only distracts me but others that are also viewing the thread.[:@]
The only Traxxas thread I look at anymore is the Slash thread because I own a slash.
And maybe the E-Revo thread every now and then.

yea I swear though theres a few who only own 1 stock xl-5 Traxxas(and had to ask in 4 different threads the pinion pitch last week) and act like they know everything about everything. I love how when someone in a thread asked about what would be good for a track racer and they said a rustler, and another said a bandit or pede [:@]

Sad thing my Tamiya Hornet could probably smoke their rustlers in a race

I use an external image host and simply use [img] tags to post them. However, I've been annoyed quite a bit by RCU timing out for no reason.

Never try to use vague answers (like telling them to read the manual), ask questions that everybody knows the answer to (is it plugged in?) or ever go through a basic trouble shooting process with them starting from the very beginning.

Many a n00bie and their n00b followers will come at you from all sides and then have the post deleted because common sense and logic is prevailing over their weak attempt to flame you with a burnt match that was found in a mud puddle.

I've been having the same exactly problems. Someone will upload a picture asking for help and I can't see it to help them. Or I try to look at pictures just for the sake of looking at pictures and it won't let me.
