2006/09/15 drupalsites.net is back

The upgrade is finished. It was not as smooth (due to some server issues) as it was planned. But what's new from now:

  • New Drupal! Finally upgraded to 4.7.
  • New subscription system. Please update your account settings.
  • New (up/down) rating system. But the old votes are lost unfortunately.
  • No more inline tags for your screenshots. Your attached screenshots will be displayed automatically.
  • Anonymous comments are back.
  • ... more updates to come quite soon. And without need to be offline so long.

Sorry it took so long and for any inconveniences. All things will go smoother from now (hopefully).

2006/07/13 Drupal Top Sites throttled

Due to massive spam submissions to Drupal Top Sites and traffic generated by top performers current server is not capable to handle this load. The main issue is that the other sites hosted on the same machine are in danger. So it is throttled from now and there may be some outages. Sorry for this. Realy.

But thanks to dreamhost who still tolerate such load on a shared host.

The plan is to move the site to another server or find some cure for submission spam or ... finally move top sites to Drupal but it needs a new module. All three solutions are currently in works.
