Nearly home time! :D

All these old tales are coming back to me now.. Its amazing what we had to cope with 10+ years ago!

The first website we had was essentially a pricelist. How long did it take to do a complete price upload and update?

answers in by 10pm!

One of these for the winner:

Interesting, if it was essentially only plain text the file would have been minute, but the Internet would have been extremely slow. I'm presuming the website had images aswell which were uploaded, so 2 hours 13 minutes seems like a bad guess, but ill go with it anyway

I make it Phase, can't see anyone else bang on

what's the stats to it though out of interest? ie connection speed and upload size?


1 hour and 10 minutes.
Robin
15-10-10, 22:11
It was 10+ years ago now.. It was a single dell server at a datacentre in London which didn't help the speed. the job that ran to update everything crashed regularly :)


If Phase was the only one to hit the nail on the head then gzz :D

Check your sent messages. :)
Phase

They are empty. :(

Do I have enough posts to send private messages?

Do I have enough posts to send private messages?
go to UserCP > Edit Option , and somewhere down the page there's a 'tick box' with "Save a copy of sent messages in my Sent Items folder by default" written next to it.

it's probably not 'ticked' atm.
needless to say, check the box, hit Save at the bottom of the page, and your PM's sent will be saved :)
Robin
17-10-10, 09:57
yes you sent 4... nice one :D
