I can tell you I offered them to run soem diags and a perf mon to see what was chewing up their servers I got a reply once but never back after that..
Yea, I've made several offers to Dusty & David to fix it for them. These guys know me, in real life, not just on the Internet. But when it comes to SF, they act strangely. I've never been able to figure it out.

AND not all the SF moderators are bad, I'd like to think i'm even handed.
No, you are right, they aren't all bad. I'm friends with quite a few of them. Steve Theodore has a site hosted here on our server - (
http://www.suprahardtopregistry.com). I know Artaxerxes (David) pretty well. V8 Killer (Dusty) and I have known each other for years. As well as houstonT (Peter) and Trent. 8secsupra (Jarrett from PHR) is an old friend of mine.
There are some
very good people on the staff over there. But there are some notable petty tyrants and quite a few
horribly unprofessional people over there as well who seem to be firmly, and permanently cemented in positions of power.
I've never sat a staff position over there, so I have no idea how they run the show. The staff here is very tightly knit. We are all in constant communication. SF seems to be a collection of fiefdoms, where each mod rules as he sees fit with little oversight from the management or the user base. That a recipe for petty tyranny. As I said, I don't know this, you would know better, but that's the impression from the outside.
