Pokemon Fansite PokeJungle Needs Your Help!


stop 300x135 2013 PokéJungle Fundraiser

If you have been reading N-Handhelds for some time now (which, chances are, you don't, >.<) you may have notice that we have a lot of Pokemon-themed content (This is a Pokemon blog, after all.) Where do I get  the news? I get it through Twitter, Facebook, Google search, and Reddit. I also have in my Google Reader a number of Pokemon sites which I follow.

One of them is PokeJungle

I have cited that website, whose mascot is the charming Sewaddle, a number of times already. The guys there are fast in delivering Pokemon news and updates, plus their themed content are definitely good reads as well. I don't comment there, however, but that doesn't mean that I do not support them.

Recently though, PokeJungle has experienced problems with their servers. Paul, the site's owner said it a post:
"Sadly I couldn’t even update the CoroCoro post while it was an ongoing story because the site would only sporadically load enough for my edits to go through. If you’ve been curious about the problem, it’s actually our site hitting its RAM usage limits or  the CPU limit which automatically renders an error to whoever gets lucky enough to be the visit that the site can’t handle."
It seems that it now needs more bandwidth to accommodate the spike in traffic that it is getting. Which means that the site is becoming popular! Great! But that also means they have to increase their current bandwidth plans or move to a new server. But they cannot do that with their own money since the guys there are college students with student loans.

In short, perhaps we can probably help them in any way possible right? The guys there are humbly asking for your assistance. Perhaps you can help? Check out their post.
