Is there a way to:
Look at notifications that have been cleared from the "notifications" tab?
or
look at a history of your like/laugh/thank list?

I got a notification that someone thanked me for something, but my phone went to the OP of the thread instead of the post they thanked me for.

Not at the moment. Such a feature might be programmed in the (probably distant) future if the want for it by the member base is large enough.

Only sort of list is the one on your profile that says how many you've given/received of each. It doesn't link. But you could try searching the thread for things like like / laugh / Thank.

Also, the site is loading incredibly slow. Can click on "Retry for a live version" to get through. Anyone else getting these issues?

@Twhirtley I'm having the same issue. :/ I've been clicking "Retry for a live version" and it will typically get me to the page I want to go to, but it's pretty annoying.

Yeah, same here. Hoping it's just some slight error that can be fixed by Mahz soon. I would hate to even think of the worst-case scenario. :(

Yeah, Amazon's entire US-East region was pretty much down: news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10247307

That's where the Guild's servers are hosted. Seems resolved now.

Are there any thoughts on ever moving the site into its own self-maintained server, or is that impossible with your job?

@LegendBegins It's just not worth it.

I learned this the hard way last year. When I first wrote the Guild from scratch in January 2014 right after Guildfall, I tried running my own servers/operations. Thought I was being smart/frugal. As the year went on and the Guild got busier and busier, I was spending more and more time dealing with operations instead of writing code. I made some wrong operations decisions and didn't have time to refactor the code, and that led to stagnant features and performance issues towards mid-/late-2014. I was just stretched too thin.

When I rewrote the Guild again in January 2015, I focused on outsourcing the operations so that I could focus on code. Now I can devote pretty much all my Guild-time to code which is why I've been able to make much better progress this year.

My process is really streamlined now which I realize is the most important thing to optimize for. When I write a patch or new feature, I can have it deployed to multiple servers within 60 seconds, and I can scale up/down the server count by click-and-dragging a slider.

@Mahz
I see. And my second question (if you are willing to release this information): Does the Guild produce enough revenue to sustain itself?

@LegendBegins Yeah, it sustains its server costs.

I just wish it sustained its Mahz-labor costs.

Have you ever considered putting up a donation box? it wouldn't be much, but I'm sure some guild members would be willing to spare a few bucks here and there.

Mahz has said before that he does not want to take donations. Unless he has changed his views, that won't happen.

I was away from the guild for a long freaking time, so it was probably during my absence that he said that.

Not to be nagging, but we're wondering what sort of feature(s) you're working on currently for the guild, @Mahz...

There's not much to do down in our thread with the collection of suggestions other than to add new ideas from people to it. It'd be wonderful to remove ideas from the list due to them being coded in too. It feels sad to only add more and more good ideas without seeing anything come of them.
