Tech, why is your website so useless

People say to me, why is your website so crappy. It falls over all the time, and pages take ages to load. I say to them it's because it is built out of brown paper and string on account of how that Justine and Carrie have spent all the money on biscuits instead of servers and staff.

NOT REALLY, but we are aware that things have been a bit shall we say fragile of late. Steps Are Being Taken (TM) and we hope to be able to put in an enhancement next week to help. It would be sooner but there's a bit of convoluted work involved, things to configure and all that. So, sorry things have been a pain lately, but we are working on it, honest.

Hope the enhancement will soon be upon us, the performance of the site is dreadful. Sorry, Tech. I know Justine expects you to run it on your old Vic 20 but I suggest you overspec your next request and demand a supercomputer, then you can bargain down.

Tech are you going to get us "like" buttons?

Sparklingbrook · 30/06/2012 15:51

Perhaps MN is going to have 'posters with a sense of humour implants' and hopefully a 'troll reduction'. Grin

AnnaMosity · 30/06/2012 15:49

Aren't you a virtual server ? Cloud. Elasticity. Etc ?

Sparklingbrook · 30/06/2012 15:46

Yes 'enhancement' doesn't always mean better. Does it? Grin

MNHQ would never allow that, he knows too much!

Tee2072 · 30/06/2012 15:20

Certainly hope not shit. There are better emoticons...

TodaysAGoodDay · 30/06/2012 15:19

I truly hope it doesn't mean flowers and bunting and shit...

Sparklingbrook · 30/06/2012 15:18

I don't know if I like the sound of an 'enhancement'.

Now tech having a webchat would be interesting.

Sparklingbrook · 30/06/2012 15:14

Don't forget the [kitten] while you are at it. Smile

TodaysAGoodDay · 30/06/2012 15:07

Oh dear, do you think we scared him off? Sad

Come back Tech, all is forgiven!

GetOrfMoiiLand · 30/06/2012 15:03

I like clever men, he evidently is one.

He will never come back to this thread now.

Tee2072 · 30/06/2012 14:28

GOML I think it's a 'cupboard' crush, IYSWIM? He brings you MN, you have a crush.

I feel that way about DarrenMumsnet who is bringing us a better iPhone app...eventually...

DrinkFeckArseGirls · 30/06/2012 14:26

Tech, are you a bit of eye candy?

TodaysAGoodDay · 30/06/2012 14:25

Can you add sound effects too please Tech? Like applause for being clever or laughing for being funny. Or even a slapped wrist if MNHQ delete a post? T'would be great!

jazzchickens · 30/06/2012 14:22

Tech, will the enhancement make the server more beautiful?

TodaysAGoodDay · 30/06/2012 14:18

I have too GOML Blush

OhNoMyFanjo · 30/06/2012 14:17

GetOrfMoiiLand I'm sure it's because he swoops in and gets mn back online saves the day.

Tech do you where your pants over tge top of your tights?

GetOrfMoiiLand · 30/06/2012 14:13

Has anyone else got a massive crush on tech, or am I a complete loser? don't answer that truthfully

TodaysAGoodDay · 30/06/2012 14:11

Oi! Mumsnet Justine and Olivia and others, please give tech some help. Poor man sounds a bit stressed! If he gets stressed then he can't fix MN, if he can't fix MN then eventually we will all go elsewhere, if we go elsewhere then you'll have no jobs. If you can't give Tech some help, can you at least give him some of your ill gotten gains biscuits? Thanks.
