SERVER UPGRADE *please read*

[Mockery]

I've been aware of the forum slowness for a while and today my host just completed an upgrade to the server. We've got more RAM now. The current server I'm on is now maxed out in regards to what upgrades can be made to it. If this current upgrade doesn't do the trick, I'm gonna have to bite the bullet and upgrade to a much more expensive server.

But for now, please keep an eye on the forums (and the site in general) over the next 48 hours and tell me (truthfully) if you notice any improvement in how it performs. I really want to keep a close eye on it over the next 48 hours to see if this latest upgrade is making a big enough different or not, so please post your observations in this thread whenever you have the chance.

Thankee! :picklehat

So far I'm not having a problem :\ I think you should delete all the posts about Rainbow Unicorns and pictures of Chojin, that will speed up the site.

I had stopped posting because it became inconvenient, so hopefully this will help!

[executioneer]

the messager boards are workign smooth as butter

i still think you guys should split the really realyl big threads though cause they're the first to start showin performance hits from this stuff ;(

[MattJack]

The forum is running very well. I don't have to wait like I have a 28.8 for any threads to open now.

Are yall still going to try to do something about the spambots? Do you think that's part of the reason the performance was shite? Or do you think that you generally have 75+ guests at all times on the forum?

I find it's running well now!

Excellent. Keep an eye on it over the next 2 days and if you experience any of the slowness problems that have plagued the forums for the past month, please let me know.

Thanks for the feedback so far.

I always thought it was my wireless connection. :-(

[Esuohlim]

I'd like to point out that, even with this 56k shitty modem I currently have, pages and images are loading incredibly quickly compared to a lot of other sites.

[Guitar Woman]
