I expect simple behaviours here. Friendship, and love.
Any advice should be from the perspective of the person asking, not the person giving!

Our apologies. We're uploading a huge new project designed to help with advertising revenue to keep the server free, perhaps to upgrade it. Unfortunately that is producing a heavy load. Add to that what was almost a denial of service attack by Yahoo yesterday where it chose to ignore the sitemaps we submit and, instead, spidered pretty much the entire server (sitemaps are designed to avoid that), and had to be sent home with its tail between its legs, and you see why we're mumbling along instead of running fast.

Normal service, Yahoo willing, will be resumed in a couple of days.
