To get this server fixed ? The is frustrating as FXXX. There is no reason to have had these issue's going on for so long ....unless it's not a priority.

 

'Cause it's .net man. Server issues and database errors are more common than GF threads now. It's insane.


...but this is the "new" and "improved" forum, remember

 

Another thread to add to the many "I hate this server" threads.

It isn't a priority.

 

one man to get off the couch

 

Disable search, New Posts, My Posts.

 

i need those features

 

Search puts a huge strain on the server. Another forum I read had database issues until they limited search to only people that have donated to the site. They eventually got new hardware, but it fixed the issue until they were able to find a new host.

 

well thats a fail idea... normally a database error happens when something isnt right, the server to busy thing makes sense. but seriously how many people get premi to help this? and it isnt delt with yet?

 

If there was proof that the vast majority here use the search then I would agree. Based on the ridiculous number of duplicate posts I think it's safe to say this isn't the case. I can't remember but if you're only a guest, are you able to perform a search? If so then this should be disabled all together imo.

 

New posts, My posts, and the Latest Posts section on the homepage are all searches. I would say almost everybody uses the New Posts and My Posts sections. That's the only way I browse the forums. Less searching means less database use.

 

#1 this site is hosted in a shared DataCenter it seems #2 It needs a dedicated server (don't think it has already) for the BE , the FE can be shared (preferred dedicated) then it should handle the volume hands down

also if they did maint on the DB and clean up any empty tables, plus there may be a bug in the vBulletin forum version, don't care enough to figure it out.

 

What the hell is a wifey........? I don't hate the server ...... I just hate frustration.

 

raise member dues

 

I would gladly pay double to cover all you freeloaders lol.......as long as it didn't go down like a Bangkok Hoo ........ nevermind

 

Anyting you want $10!!!!

 

freeloaders lol, there's nothing here worth the premium membership,unless paying for database errors is cool

 

this. although the info is great, it can rarely be accessed so it's usless...

 

x2 im not renewing my membership next year thats for sure! if you upgrade to premium you should a least get a css.net sticker or a shirt and maybe so type of discount with some of the venders.

 

^you mean x3

 

lol yeah well when i posted it i was x2 lol

 

ibtl...lol

 

ya i would go premium but its useless if i cant check the forums

 

I agree.....I was joking about the freeloader thing (tone can be hard to decipher on the net) . I just pay so i can bitch when it's down lol.
