it's not sparkly enough Posts: 7,928 Group: Members Member #28,312 Joined: August 25, 2004	TK2 +February 27, 2005 12:25 PM So, Duffman, how is it that you manage to make profit from this? Ads, people paying for restorations or transfers, etc. I thnik IF would simply buy massive hi-tech servers capable of handling hundreds of thousands of boards so there would aways be only s1,s2, s3, s4, s6, s7, s8,s9. s43598245924659.invisionfree.com would just be silly. :ph34r:

And this is still way over its league.

Guess Whos Back! Back Again! Posts: 756 Group: Members Member #3,956 Joined: August 8, 2003	It's hard to think that IF would get that big. For one by the time it gets up to 100 servers, I have a feeling that everyone here would be dead. I hope duffman has some kids to take his job.

Emu-licious! Posts: 20 Group: Members Member #45,898 Joined: February 25, 2005	If IF ever got that big, I'm thinking it would be utter chaos. Not just with the number of boards, but with the amount of staff that would be needed here to keep all the spam away from the support boards and such, but there would also need to be a huge amount of time needing to be put in just for this. Plus if IF ever got that big, everybody would be here; SL, CF, HB, PB, VB, and all of those other message board people would lose all of their guys. Plus, people would be complaining about the service not being updated, etc., etc., etc. Mass problems, is what I'm trying to say.
