  1. [b]Update on Welovefine Sale[/b]: As many of you have emailed, it looks like Welovefine is still dead after the initial rush at 11:30 AM. Unfortunately, I am not sure if they are actually available due to the holiday. I have sent an email off to see if we can get either an extension or possibly an event later on down the road. Your best bet is to keep checking back! We have two and a half hours left. Hopefully they fix it soonish! >http://www.equestriadaily.com/2012/07/update-on-welovefine-sale.html http://ur1.ca/9q5zl

    1. @eqdpony Good job having terrible servers and trying to hold a short-term sale like that, WLF.

      1. @redenchilada Spot the person who's never administrated a server.

        3. @ceruleanspark I do not claim to have the slightest bit of knowledge on the subject. However, if they're constantly running into issues keeping their servers up in heavy traffic like that, they should considering investing in additional power.

          1. @redenchilada /Are/ they constantly running into issues though?

            1. @ceruleanspark Every time they hold an event they have problems. I remember on multiple occasions having trouble loading things on their site due to outages. I get that running a server isn't easy, but they're a business dealing primarily over the internet.

              1. @redenchilada So's valve. They go down every time they hold a sale too.

                1. @ceruleanspark True, but I'd expect game downloads to use more bandwidth than shirt orders.
