Share hosting with SpecialStage?

[GodSquadMandrake]

I pushed "New Posts" almost simultaneously on DI and SpecialStage and I got an error on the SpecialStage forums that said "You cannot make another search within 10 seconds of your last one." Are both forums hosted on the same server or something? The interface looks very similar, althought I think DI is easier to read :p

Nah, they just use the same forum software (vBulletin)

[carl]

yea that's the software not the hosting - vbulletin is very popular

how about the same host as iwsti? i've noticed when iwsti is down, di is too

We lease space on a dedicated server that i think is still running IWSTI.

Just for the record, the box we are on i can guarantee is way faster than whats running SS...

OK, so imagine I managed to find the picture I was looking for and posted it here. The picture is of a 2.2L with the engine pulled and a hamster wheel in the bell housing attached to the tranny input shaft.

That's what's powering SS.

Their sh*t is broken at least once a week.

Just for clarification, DI is not on the same server as IWSTI, but they are both located in the same data-center in Texas. If there is a major network / backbone problem, it is entirely possible that both would be down at the same time (along with about 500,000 other websites). ;)
