He's using ipv6.

Although I can testify that it is a very capable brain which can handle as many queries as you can stow, if you don't take my word, we can install microstats to get factual stats. :glasses:

i have to agree, it's an amazing feat, vb.org is without a doubt where vbulletin comes into it's own, it's the reason alot of ppl decide to fork out for a license, simply being the sheer amount of customisation available. my only real problem with chen is that he's no longer active on the boards which just sucks

When it comes to programming and websites, age is just not a factor anymore .

LOL!!! Microstats installed in Xenon's brain...

It would be:


Thought generated in 120.56705 seconds with 2 queries [Brain Loads: 99.57 ? 99.63 : 99.59]
