Can we do temporary edits to the template to make it semi-functional (only a couple of switchs), or it can't be touched until you finish investigating?
It's 5 days since this reminding, a week since the slowness. We're missing the funcionality it provided. So, is there any reason blocking from restoring it? (if so, why hasn't been resolved yet? :D)
There was a 'policy' of users don't needing to worry about server issues ('if there aren't enough servers, we will add more'), but here there is a collision.
Jesus Christ!
I can't say words without having some God-given "policy" read into them.
I made a general recommendation not to go running around saying THE SKY IS FALLING THE SKY IS FALLING about templates BASED ON SUPPOSITION AND PARANOIA.
That doesn't mean that AN ACTUAL PROBLEM, WHEN DISCOVERED, SHOULD BE IGNORED.
WHEN THERE IS AN ACTUAL, REAL, MEASURABLE PROBLEM, THEN IT MATTERS.
IN THIS CASE THERE IS AN ACTUAL, REAL, MEASURABLE PROBLEM.
UNTIL THAT GETS FIXED UP ON THE SOFTWARE END, THE PARTICULAR TEMPLATE WHICH IS AN ACTUAL, REAL, MEASURABLE PROBLEM, TAKING 10-20 SECONDS TO RENDER, MUST NOT BE WIDELY USED.
Try to use some common sense, people.
There's no "policy" here. Just *sense*.
