It all boils down to this. Just because you have the power to do something doesn’t mean you should. For instance, earlier today the webserver was restarted because it had been up for 1500 hours. It’s a server…it’s supposed to be up for 1500+ hours. If you did that in a corporate environment, you would get fired. It should be no different here…this club has a fun side and a business/administrative side. The server did not need to be restarted. Just because you have RDP and think it’s so cool to remote into a server doesn’t mean it needs to be done. That’s the kind of things that are going on unchecked. The stuff that happens that we think is slightly annoying or a slight inconvenience ends up growing into a major issue.
Agreed. If you’re going to reset the server, do it at 3-5am when you know no one is going to be using it. Aphrodite and TRON are both production servers and are rarely given the respect that comes with that title. Unless there is something quantifiably wrong with the server there is no reason to touch it at all and there is absolutely no reason to RDP into it unless something major is wrong.
