LT Update: Site running on standby servers, expect degraded performnce

1. We take note accordingly.

   • We don’t have to know that, just get on with your job

     Thanks

   • But you don’t need to apologize, its just news, we don’t use your website to send money. We come here to look for news. Anyway, we are here again, just take your time, no rush at all.

   • C’mon Nostra, let the guys be civil. we don’t want to be blaming our ISP’s for any slowness due to the adhoc measures taken by the LT team … a commendable measure I must add.

2. We hear you.,.,.,.,.

3. Duly noted and your efforts appreciated.

4. Surely as a journalist your English needs to be better than this. You have serious grammatical flaws and sentence structures for a public announcement. I presume the PF grammar is now part of your journalism.

   • Did you get the message? That’s what matters most.

   • Sorry, Nebo – I get what you mean (congratulations for that), but disagree when you say mediocre is fine. Why shouldn’t Zambians demand (or at least strive for!) high standards in everything they do?

     You really think it is “just OK” for so-called professional journalists to barely express themselves? In truth, people who claim there is no reason to do better are a large part of what drags Zambia down.

   • Spuds, I am not advocating for poor standards at all. All that I am saying is that we need to move from academicians to practical people. People who are educated and not schooled with countless certificates. We emphasize so much on high standard of articulation that we forget the main objective. As a people we all make mistakes and so typos should not have precedence over the message.

   • @ Nebo, no worries – we all make typos!

     Only the LT reporters are supposedly professional journalists (…or at least aspiring professional journalists?), so some attention to detail and a little bit of proofreading would not go amiss. In another LT article online now, for example, I had to smile at the thought of government providing “descent” jobs (not decent jobs), when that seems to be the exact problem…… the number of jobs are descending.

     Even about being understood I had to read the first sentence in this story three or four times before I kinda’ barely figured out what they mean. There’s definitely more than typos wrong with that sentence (!) which, to be honest, is pretty much the literary equivalent of my dog’s breakfast.

     Anyway, friend – cheers!

   • Cheers to you too.

5. Thanks for keeping us informed LT. We appreciate.

6. ‘We hope to bring online production servers in the night ZAMBIA time GMT+2’ ??? So wWhat time is that?

   • Greenwich Meridian Time plus two hours

   • There’s no such a time, they rushed making an announcement without proof reading their content. What they are implying is that they are not sure when the servers will be back online.

7. I wished others could also let now what is happening. Not just to hear Nkole has be retired and replaced with Chola another Bemba

8. Cheers!

9. Twalumba for the update.

10. hope you are not implementing backdoors to sell our comments to third party

11. I don’t suppose I care ba LT . But good that you told us !

12. LT you are excellent. That is the way to do business. You communicate with your clients.

    • Wonderful! You are not like ZESCO…

13. Thanks LT for treating us with respect. I’m so worried though that I may not be able to down-vote Saulosi and his word may be taken as gospel truth by some! (just kidding Saulosi, all in good fun)

14. Your standby servers MUST have the same capacity as your production servers so that the visitors to your site don’t see any degradation. Unless you are saying that your standby servers have lower capacity then you are just lying. How many servers do you have anyway? One single server can handle the kind of traffic that come to your site. Please either you tell us the truth or just sh&%t-up and sort out your incompetence
