Who cares? Anyone brought here is a potential new user, so why complain about that?

I'm going to explain this like my Uncle did about training dogs.

My Uncle trained dogs for hunting and retrieving competitions. He had a friend he used to train with but stopped because they trained their dogs differently. His friend would train his dog on what he would be doing for his next trial. He was employing the here and now strategy which is what vgchartz is currently using.

My Uncle would prepare his dog for the trial, but then instead of continuing to train for what the trial had in store, he'd also train the dog for what the next trials would have, so he would be preparing for the future. THIS IS WHAT VGCHARTZ _MUST_ DO. We can't sit back and get bogged down day in day out when someone links us to Digg or any other major news medium. We need to have the capabilities before hand to be able to handle this kind of traffic, otherwise users will just get frustrated and will want nothing to do with the community.

Take the cost hit, and upgrade the servers.
