Going slower/Time out more often

[5cardstud]

I thought they fixed this but I'm finding everyday the site has slow times or you get logged out with server busy message. Please HELP We need more space.

Hey 5card...there are a few threads about this problem..I bet Roly gets an announcement out soon about it..It really is driving a lot of people crazy!!

 

[5cardstud]

I know but this is the feedback thread and I was just giving feedback.

Yea generally the mods keep up on here.....we'll see if they come on & give us a pep talk LOL

I also have the same problem. I just keep hitting refresh until I can get back it, but it is a little frustrating.

Sorry, this will last for a week or two till we do some site work. The plan is:

(1) add a new site section in the form of a CMS (standard-style website). The front page will change to a normal website type of page, portal style, and this will take a big load off the server.
(2) See how that affects the site loading, then add another server the following week most likely.

That's what's wrong. Thanks, now I know what to tell my therapist. I've been trying to find out why I'm nuts.

Mine goes down just after midnight every night. I use it as a time out from staring at the screen, reading all of your posts and trying to figure out what to buy, change, add or otherwise feed the addiction with next. It's like a nice little vacation each night. It's good. Goooood. Oh, and by addiction, I don't mean to nicotine, I mean to vaping gear.

I've noticed it is getting more frequent, but lately ALWAYS at 12:15am cst

Yep Rimp! 10:10 to 10:15 here every night like clock work. Hoping they move it back about 3 hours.

Long time no font, by the way!!

Thanks to Roly for crowd control...whew

 

[lmrasch]

Yay...so excited you're fixing it! This is such an awesome forum, thanks for working so hard.

 

[Sardonic]

C'mon, if it wasn't for the downtime of the server I'd lose my job, my GF, and my sanity from being glued to the forum... leave it alone!!!

It appears as though the message board is hosted on a shared server and is getting "crowded out" by other domains. Looking at the board traffic, it's not enough to drain resources so it must be the type of hosting account.
