couldn’t say, mayhaps

right now i don’t think the app is remotely prepared for mods of any kind, im always impressed when i see what you can mod minecraft to do (for example) and honestly have no idea how simple drag-and-drop some files = almost a completely new game

here’s what i observe

backup plugin runs, it used to be done by 5am but recently it goes beyond

for some odd reason, it occassionally eats up massive GB of space (site only has about 30gb free) and on Sat mornings I wake up to 99.9% filled

I think this bogs down all other systems – including everything related to @sticknodes.com email (website notifs and submissions to me)

even when the backup plugin is done the website is still shitting itself and not sending emails

I found the solution is to keep resetting the server and keep watching the CPU usage

when that doesn’t work (CPU usage is still like 2000%), I toss a blank page as the index.php so nobody can access the site

this kinda is like a release valve and I notice I start to get the trickle of backlog emails from the past 12 hours, also CPU settles to basically 1%

once I give it time I remove index.php placeholder and all is operational again

thank you for attending my ted talk

i honestly didn’t know wtf was happening i thought the website wires were irreparably crossed

keep it

i like being able to scan my emails and even from 50 meters away from the screen I can tell how many annoying bug report posts there are
