**Logs**

**Additional context**

no kidding .. this is the ACTUAL log file .... sometimes I think our industry is going to shit ... and the more idi0ts are given 'fantastic tools' the stupider they become.

what I find simply amazing is that someone who is likely a professional developer would think that of writing a client/server type system without thinking that it would be possible (ok.. I really mean 100% likely) that the server might be stuck, blocking the client in the same breath... dunno if it is hubris ("I am so great, my code will never do that") or authentic lack of imagination (ok, I really mean "stup..."). either way ... Kudos, amazing, fantasticaly fabulously cool piece of great code. ;-)
