      You remind me of the post a couple of days back where they were describing the type of code project members in the forum. Are you trying to prove you are the Big Dog, who doesn't spare anyone smaller? 3(5) votes for that messsage.Is that how reputations are built?

      He's telling you that someone took the time to answer your question, so there's no need to SHOUT, even if you can't appreciate their help. If you want more of a "technical enough" answer, go hire a consultant, and pay them to get what you want. If you want it for free, and you cannot be patient and polite, you'll get nothing. Well, may be you will get some humiliation for being ignorant and rude.

            What is the minimum server configuration to keep a site like codeproject running for 50,000 simultaneous users. Nos of procs for the windows server and nos of procs for the Sql Database server and amount of Ram. Now dont look at my signature - it's a defence for the Irrational downvotes that I keep getting.

            If you are trying to host a site, that you just developed, then it's better to start with Shared Hosting, once you get the users and revenue going, you can shift to Dedicated Hosting, and once the site becomes big hit (you need to decide the criteria), then you try to host the site yourself. otherwise it's not worth it and too much efforts/money will be required to test if your new idea is going to work or not. becuase selft hosting is big resposibility, you need everything redundant, power / hardware / internet / storage etc... And if you have that kind of money in your pocket, then buy 2 high configuration servers, with dual socket CPUs, quad core Xeons, with 32 GB RAM each, with RAID 10 harddrives. and then install vmware ESX in both. and configure atleast 1 web servers each (for redundacy) , and 1 database server with atleast 1 node for replication (both on sperate servers for redundacy). you can allocate 8GB x 2 ram to sql server database, 4GB ram x 2 to web servers. reserve 2 GB for vmware host. and 1 GB for sql server failover witness database. and use rest for development environment. (and the networking hardware extra, hardware firewalls, switches, static ip, internet connections etc..) And if this is too complex then go with Amazon EC Services or Windows / SQL Azure. and you dont have to worry about anything, and you can upgrade the hardware as per the demand, by changing the web.config.

                            Why is it that when someone points out your faults, you turn it around trying to divert it to prove that someone else doing something wrong? If you can't correct yourself without we "fixing" the problems of others, we could may be talk about the "problems" of other people first. Merrens told you in a less than polite manner to behave properly, because you were impolite, and you SHOUTED at someone who was trying to help. I see that his reaction is normal, because he's one of the regulars here, and the regulars here (most of them) don't take it well when someone (especially a relatively new person) doesn't play it well. If you're going to be impolite towards others, expect nothing less it in return. Now, can we talk about your problem? Can you behave politely, and NOT SHOUT?!

                                  Number of users doesnt matter, even you have 7 mil users, it will handle. the question is how many are online at the given point of time? if around 3000 users are online at the same time, it will handle it. (again it depends how complex the site is, and how much database access / calculations are required to satisfy one user request) you can always use Load/Stress Testing tools on the website before launching it. I always stree test my web applications with atleast 5000 users for most common workflow.

                                    Why is it that when someone points out your faults, you turn it around trying to divert it to prove that someone else doing something wrong? If you can't correct yourself without we "fixing" the problems of others, we could may be talk about the "problems" of other people first. Merrens told you in a less than polite manner to behave properly, because you were impolite, and you SHOUTED at someone who was trying to help. I see that his reaction is normal, because he's one of the regulars here, and the regulars here (most of them) don't take it well when someone (especially a relatively new person) doesn't play it well. If you're going to be impolite towards others, expect nothing less it in return. Now, can we talk about your problem? Can you behave politely, and NOT SHOUT?!

                                    I didn't shout out .Languages can have nuances and I just highlighted that it was not technical enough.There could be an answer more detailed than that.May be shouting out is a term old timers are more familiar with than me.

                                        Putting a message in all capitals is considered to be shouting and is impolite. You really seem to be turning your refusal to learn into an art form.

                                          Can you re-examine. i just asked a simple question in the forum. Didn't see that: have you got a link? No i dont have the link but it was about a couple of days back.May be someone else can help you with that. Wouldn't care who you were: if you act like a fool I'll pull you up on it. I didn't think I asked anything stupid or strange or foolish ?
