We Apologize In Advance For This Story

You know what'd be cool? If the site didn't display a huge MySQL error...

Warning: mysql_connect(): Too many connections in /home/httpd/vhosts/isreallyawesome.com/httpdocs/profile.php on line 13
Database connection error: Too many connections

If I'm gonna pay a buck for something, it better work.

(P.S. You can expect the spam to start within the next few minutes)

All I can say is that a fool and his money are soon parted....

i still wouldn't be surprised to see adrants.isreallycool.com show up on that list.
come on steve.. i know you're thinking about it...

Wow, Steve, your mention crushed our server. We're working to bring it back up now with our hosting company. Wow! The power of Adrants people!

Really, really AWESOME!

Ha! Just call me mini-Fark:-) And, Brent, I did think about it for a minute. I couldn't find a dollar though:-)

Rackspace just dropped a keg of ram into my server, as well as a new processor, so we're back up.

Steve Hall kicks the tires and lights the fires!

Holy cow. Within three minutes we got our "acid test" and now we know, "Scotty! I need more power!" "Captain, I'm givin her all she's got!!!" Thanks for the writeup and within 24 hours we will have a brand new shiney server (our old one has been bandaged and will get us there) that can handle everyone...even if you can't locate that dollar ;-) You have one powerful keyboard there AdRants!

Biggest piece of advice I can give these guys - ahem, don't quit your day job.

And if your server crashed from that traffic, feed the gerbil that's running in the treadmill that powers your system. Use some of your dollars and buy some steroids at www.domesticgear.com/ for your Gerbil.

dave + jim.. sorry to be the bearer of bad news.. but in 24 hours the referalls from here will dwindle to practically nothing....... hope u didn't put too much $$ into that new server.

Such negativity. It's ok, if what we made made at least one person smile today we are happy. It's all about fun. Our work here is done, have fun!

Oh, Jim, this doesn't count as negativity by Adrants standards at all ... you got off with a chuckle and a roll of the eyes!

Poor Kael - so negative and so much advice...is that your day job? If so, keep up the good work!

Hats off to these guys if they only make $10. Their attitude is great and they did this all in the name of 'fun', and maybe the thought of some side revenue.

It looked whacky enough to try... And I waited a few extra days for the new server capacity to be installed. So $10 and 2 attempts later: NADA, ZILCH, NOTHING. Not even the email with the Login/Password info. No return email from "awesome" customer service. Should I go to PayPal now and ask for my refund and avoid the rush?

Hi Herb,

We switched servers today, having DNS switch over right now. You account will be created. I did reply to you right after you emailed, obviously the dns is still in limbo. Your page will be created and everything will be working fine shortly. Did you ever move servers? It's tricky.

Our server upgrade is complete. We're back up and faster than ever! Just for the trouble, if you read this, and you purchase a page I'll give the first 50 people a free upgrade from the $1.00 to the $5.00 level.

Just buy the $1.00 and email me after (jim at awesomemillion.com) with your user name and tell me you saw this post on Adrants and I'll manually upgrade you to the $5.00 level free of charge.

Awesome Jim signing out, with less hair from his server move
