Тема: Просто так
Думаю, многие помнят мой пост про обновление движка и т.д.
Так вот, кто знает инглиш прочитает без проблем, остальным, если интересно - гугл переводчик в помощь.
"With all that's happened over the past year, it seems like a good time to catch up and let you know what's happening behind the scenes. Our server upgrade didn't go as well as it could have, and some of the problems took longer to resolve than I would have liked. I appreciate everyone's patience while we got that all working again. The new server is faster in almost every way, and gives us a good base for more and better services going forward. People seem pleased with the most recent forum upgrade. I personally like the cleaner and more readable look. What you don't see is that it's easier to administer and maintain. At some point, we'll be tweaking the appearance so it harmonizes better with our web site, but that's a ways off. We enabled the like button. We think it will be more helpful than detrimental. Please, don't get overly concerned with your number of likes. Just keep posting as you normally would. This hobby has more branches than a Bodhi tree, and someone will need your information at some time in the future. We've experienced significant growth during the pandemic. There were some refugees from the now defunct Scale Auto forum. If you found your way here from SAE, welcome. More importantly, lots of people suddenly had time to begin, or return to model building. It was fun when we were kids, and amazingly enough, it's still fun now. Our new user rate tripled starting about April of last year. We also had an unusually large contingent of guest users. This is all good for our hobby. This influx has presented some surprising challenges. My local hobby shop ran out of styrene glue. A week before, they had 50 bottles. I've never seen that. Our additional users have put more load on our infrastructure too, but we're well positioned to handle it. I don't anticipate us having any capacity problems for the foreseeable future. Our new server is working very well. Uptime has been excellent, and the upgrade gave us the headroom we needed to handle both the increased content, and new users. Our goal has always been to have a welcoming and supportive community. I feel like we're generally doing well in that regard, and for that, I thank you all. Given our influx of new people, we see lots of questions, some of them more naive than others. We're trying to get helpful content on the web site, but it will take time. It's worth noting that our new modelers are coming to the hobby as adults. The challenges are different, and they don't have a passel of friends where they can pick up the very basic stuff. Please, be patient, and helpful. We have a wealth of information here, but it's not very well organized and harder to search than I'd like. We have a love"
Это обращение с одного англоязычного форума. Вот я читал и мне было прям приятно приятно. Отношение к людям показано очень хорошо.
А отношение к людям у нас в СНГ, а именно тут было очень странное. Когда я просто спросил про возможность смены движка форума, меня облили дерьмом, да так, что до Москвы дотекло.
Я реально не понимаю, что с вами всеми не так, люди. Откуда вся эта ненависть и желчность.
PS: если что - форум, с которого я сюда запостил текст достаточно старый (выглядел до обновки примерно, как наш сейчас) и там, точно также, как и у нас тут полно людей в возрасте. Но там люди понимают, что форум создан не для разборок или оскорблений, а для обсуждения любимого хобби и всего с ним связанного.
PSS: может, всё таки, рассмотрим возможность смены движка и небольшого шажка в 2021-й год?))))
