Q & A

I've been comfortable in the background all these years running the site but now I plan to be more present and visible. So I will start with this journal feature that I have not used much in the past.

So to begin, if anyone has any questions about the site, myself, or anything else, ask here in the comments and I will answer them in the next entry.

A short site hardware update - an upgrade will be coming soon. The site has been under tremendous load this whole year and the nearly 5 year old server has survived and is still going strong. The data is backed up daily but if there is a hardware failure, that could mean the site would be down for a long time - maybe weeks.

So I have decided to buy a new server (upgrading from dual 700Mhz to dual 3.2Ghz) and keep this one as a backup to gain at least a little peace of mind. I anticipate installing the new server in about a month or so.

Thank you DavidT (Score:1)

I have no questions at the moment, but would just like to say a big thanks for running this site. Through it I got to meet the love of my live! Thanks for that, amongst others things.

Hope You've Been Well! (Score:1)

What a nice surprise to find an entry from you upon my logging in!

I'll have echo Tales' sentiments re: making new friends/acquaintances; I've felt a real bond with those who have mutually rallied around each other with fiercely anti-Bush entries/comments - especially from those from around the world. We are able to unite and vent our frustrations, and also inform one another of any under-handed goings-on within our countries, whilst at the seme time share in our common love for Morrissey!

Thank you, David - you provide us with a wealth of services, all so humbling too.

Many thanks for what you do. I'll admit to a bit of curiousity about your motives for running this site. It seems like you make lots of time/energy/financial sacrifices and don't particularly get a payoff! Is running an excellent site good enough in itself? I am very curious as to how detached you are from Moz's inner circle. Were you ever a part of Moz's inner circle?

I hope you can forgive the blunt questions, David ... obviously you can choose not to answer them.

I'm curious about what other artists you enjoy.
Someone once told me that you Only listen to Smiths/Moz, and I was wondering if this was true?

A question! (Score:1)

Reading Gabriella's comment about your possible communication with Morrissey made me think of a question, which is has Morrissey personally ever contacted the site/you and do you therefore know if he himself ever visits it or not?

I've wondered why you weren't out in the public eye on your site. I wonder how you'll like the change.

Thank you, btw, for orchestrating such a passionate site.

Hello to David! (Score:1)

Thanks also from the Dutch little bit of the globe for running this site, it'll always remain my prime source for Moz-related info and the journals section helped me through some weird patches in my life - thanks for that, too ;-)

One question - aren't you, now you're becoming more visible, afraid that the usual shadowlurkers are going to lay into you?
