I figure this is as good of place as any to ask my question: Where can I find someone to hire that is able to write Nginx cofigs well. I have spent literally 40ish hours trying to create a Nginx conf that holds up to my OCD. I have been told numerous times on IRC that I am too picky and clean urls are a challenge to write. I am college student and System Administration isn't even my job! Help!

I'm pretty sure the best way to accomplish this is to jump into IRC and declare that it is impossible to be done.

I wish, I have tried multiple times and no one wants/can do it.

Yes I have, however I always find it very challenging to modify it to support clean urls and PHP-FPM in an OCD fashion.

not a bad idea. Does either have an official way to offer a bounty? If not, any sites that do? Also, what would you say is a fair price range for this kind of request?

Or say, "Well, this is the only way to do it... nothing else works for nginx." and then present an inefficient solution. You will get ripped but solutions will arrive.

A bounty in those sites is not monetary but you use "karma" points that you win by answering questions etc.
