The Recent Forum Slowdown Problem

[China-Rising]

As some of you are already aware, the forum has been witnessing a lot of slow down problems over the last week. Pages taking a long time to load and the site in general is running very slow.

At fist I put this down to traffic on the server (lots of other websites also use this server which could contribute to the traffic problem), but after speaking to the hosting company about the problem, it's actually down to a CPU issue on the server.

The hosting company have been great and got back to me straight away with my concerns and they have told me that the issues will be fixed very soon. I haven't been given a date, but it shouldn't be too long.

Please bear with us during this time. I know some of you are frustrated, especially if you log onto the site a few times a day, but things will be fixed soon and the forum will be back to the speeds you are all use to once again.

I'm sorry for the inconvenience this is causing some of you.

Not at all fella I'm going to do the same on the Trance forum

OK guys, here is a little update on this, it also means some downtime.

The hosting company are moving us over to a new server. This will mean the forum will be offline for a while, it could be an hour or a few hours. I'm going to lock the forum in the next 30 mintues while this happens. Which means you won't be able to get on and also, when the move happens, the forum won't load at all.

This should fix all the problems we have been happening.

At 1pm I will lock the forum so be prepared for it.

See you on the other side

[steve]

Im just starting to learn about animated ones but i like the idea see what comes

[China-Rising]

Keep it on topic please.

Discuss your sigs here http://www.its-all-about-oldskool.co....php?f=3&t=501

[China-Rising]

The change is still to happen.

This will mean at some point the forum will go off-line while the change happens.

If this is the case, you can either go to http://www.its-all-about-trance.com or http://www.its-all-about-flyers.com and check for any updates and have a chat with other members while the change over happens.

Please bookmark those 2 sites NOW as once the change happens, the forum will be totally off-line and it will just be a blank internet page until it comes back on-line.

Read and understood China - see you on the other side when it happens
