Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, click this link (fngt.gq). That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask theBuddha, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then you can donate.

Reminder: December 23rd is going to be our Christmas edition of the Friday Night Guitar Thread. Get to working on your Christmas songs now so they are done in time!

Oh, those servers aren't here in my house - they're in a data center in Dallas Texas, Reno NV, Virginia Beach, and LA. (I lease/rent multiple serves, or accounts, for different things.)

Man... Can you imagine trying to run all those things on my home internet connection? I doubt either allows for a server - as it's a residential ISP. Then, there's the reliability - which, as you know, sucks. Then, there's the lag, which also sucks. Plus, there's the bandwidth associated with it. My servers use a lot of traffic. So, I can't host it at home.

Maybe when fiber comes along. If there's fiber that allows business accounts, I could probably host a bunch of this stuff in my home.

I probably won't, but I could... I like having other people to take care of the minutia. I like having people I can blame if things go wrong.

having someone to blame also means you have someone to tell to fix it!
