krillmeed Thank god for that, i have just spent over the last 2 hours thinking a few recent scripts from SDN have slowed my forum right down, so i have been putting everything back to the original template and slowly adding them again. Even on the original it was slow, then it was quick and slow again. As an afterthought i thought it could be the server and deceided to check here. Well now i know it is not my forum :) Well i did need the practice anyway ;) :D :D

JoJess well my forum is on a real go slow again and yet I can get into others very easily any suggestions why peeps .

Peter Let me know if it still slow. It's loading fine from here.

Hoser Server 2 has been bad all day. It is brutal right now. I am on high speed and have been waiting now for about 5 minutes for the home page of my site to load. Hope it doesn't chase members away.It is frustrating for me as I have quit the site more than once today because I can't even log out if I am logged in. Hell, this happens a lot on this server.
August 20th, 2004 02:49 PM
Hoser Okay. Looks like big time problems now. I hope it is with the server and our site hasn't been hacked. I have hit refresh a few times and nothing. This is the message I get:



There seems be a problem with our database. Please wait a minute and try again by pressing the refresh button in your browser.

An e-mail has been forwarded to support.

We apologise for the inconvenience.

Hope our site wasn't hacked.

Sage I have been getting what Hoser is on my new forum, and The Tavern. i havnt really seen anyother ones though...
August 20th, 2004 02:57 PM
Kuberrion Yeah, my forum is really messed up. Instead of the normal board, it only shows the logo and an email link to "support". I'm confused...
August 20th, 2004 02:58 PM
Sage heh. now its on both of my forums...
August 20th, 2004 03:01 PM
NonHeartless Sadly, I'm getting the same message......-_-
August 20th, 2004 03:03 PM
Peter It appears a board is being flooded. The database problem was my fault, some changes were made to catch the bad guy.
August 20th, 2004 03:06 PM
NonHeartless do you know when this problem will be fixed?

Spamfest, usually.

Peter It seems to have calmed down now. I'll keep a close eye on the board in question.
By flooded I mean a whole lot of visitors(usually computer generated visitors) going to a single board.
August 20th, 2004 03:33 PM
carole well all seems well now for me the sites that were really slow b4 r now working ok
August 20th, 2004 03:36 PM
shellspeare mine seems almost better now, a wee bit slow but at least i can post, great job guys, as always xx
August 20th, 2004 08:14 PM
BEDAZZLED every excoboard I visit other than here I'm getting a corrupted screen for about 2mins where one line is scrolled all down the screen.... other members on my site are saying they're getting the same, so its not my pc...

(anyone getting a slow connection on aol or any other isp should ensure they have spyware in operation, I had nearly 200 spy/adware/cookie trackers on my pc when I checked it....there are plentry of freewares available...I paid for Spyware doctor)
August 21st, 2004 05:57 AM
BEDAZZLED GRRRRR still gettin it this morning....:(

whole screen's freezing and corrupting for 2mins everytime I refresh

Maybe if Topsites was sorted out it would stop all the visitor rigging thats going on??? I checked out a few of the sites on there and there wasnt anyone online all day but their figures were jumping up, sometimes hundreds at a time?
August 21st, 2004 07:03 AM
Peter You should try clearing out your header/footer and see if the problem remains.
August 21st, 2004 12:06 PM
BEDAZZLED thanks I scrapped the myshout.com shoutbox n now its fine (hmmm) ;)
August 22nd, 2004 10:04 AM
Hoser Okay once again it is brutally slow. The main page never did fully load when I logged in but I clicked on the main title before it loaded and it got me there but it is super slow this morning again.
August 23rd, 2004 05:22 PM
mickfrancis The same here. I am starting to lose members as they are getting fed up with waiting for pages to load. :angry:
