We've added some new fields to the database: Intent and Comments, thanks to BassLakeDan for the suggestion. We're still working on adding an image field. Please add in your knives to help build the knowledge base.

No problem... Also I did PM you (email actually) about the server issues. Did you get that email? If not I can re-send it.

I think I did receive it and we're in the process of moving to a different server. I've been wrapped up with getting the new designs into prototype and getting ready for Blade Show, so I'm not sure where we stand on that issue. I'll check with our webmaster to find out. How has the speed been lately?

Pretty slow in my experience. And I've gotten no response from server errors over the last 5 days or so a few times... (other sites browsing fine, when it was slow once I tried it on my phone and had the some trouble)

I just got off the phone with our webmaster and they are in the process of testing the site on a new server. We should have it moved by next week!!

Hi Clay,

I hope you don't mind my saying so, but I would make this move a very high priority. Maybe your highest.

The website is painfully slow -- you can wait 5, 10 or even 20 seconds for a page to load. I have no doubt this is costing you sales. Many Internet users have become accustomed to instant response and will give up in frustration when pages take a long time to come up.

The WEPS is a rich system with many accessories and choices to make, and it's really a major time commitment to browse through everything. In fact, a lot of prospective buyers will browse the Forum looking for answers about how the system performs and accessories they may want to get with their first purchase. It takes way too long to do that with the server speed the way it is now.

Further, the Forum is an incredible resource for engendering customer loyalty and stimulating repeat sales (in part due to your personal participation.) I know I'm contemplating buying various stropping accessories I probably wouldn't have considered had I not read about them in the Forum. Nowadays, I hestitate to login because I know it's going to take forever just to read the most recent messages.

The website is far too valuable to WEPS to let it continue in this state.
