Over the last week or so I've noticed the forum has slowed down to the point of being almost unusable. It takes a minute or so for each page to load up. Even on broadband it's slowed right down. I know it's not a general problem becuase all other sites I use work at the normal speed - it's only SSC that has the problem.

Is this just me or does anyone else notice the forum slowing down?

I have the same problem. I also have the issue that often the link to specific forums and threads don't work efficiently: I often get the "Page not found" message and I have to try 3 or 4 times until I can see a thread. I encounter the same problem when posting on threads. It's all rather frustrating.

the same crap is happening with me.I am getting very nervous 'cause of that :(

--ditto-- :rant:

W T F server upgraded?

"Page not found" message appears more than before.:sleepy:

We're working on a three server setup for the forums to cope with growth, we're just awaiting the third one (= second web server). After this is connected, the ever growing forums should be back on speed. Thanks for your patience. :)

lol.....even after two year u have same number of post

Either way, SSC has been running fine for me since the last upgrade, save a few 500s here and there

Bloody hell, whoever dug this thread up needs to be drawn & quartered, castrated, shot, bled, and then REALLY hurt.

Next person that sends me into a blind panic, dies.

yes, it's called the complexity of growth.

now that we have not just deciated servers, but entire rings of servers dedicated to differing parts of the site, it is very, very complex to set up and program to all work perfectly.

It's kind of like driving a car... driving a car isn't very hard, but it still takes some skill... Well, imagine having to drive 7 cars down 7 different roads in perfect unison, all at the same time... otherwise the whole thing crashes... Not so easy.


Sorry it's such a pain in the butt folks, but we can't help it that the site is so popular and grows so FAST.

I think you must get a life, also i don't see problem with Jan's Writing.

SPEAK FOR YOURSELF INVISIBLE MAN
YOU'RE THE ONE WHO IS AS INSUBSTANTIAL AS A GHOST
JUST LOOK WHO'S INSIDE YOUR AVATAR
PROBABLY SAME THING GOING ON INSIDE YOU BRAIN
....NOTHING....:nuts:

lol.....even after two year u have same number of post

IS THAT YOUR PROBLEM ?
I READILY ASSUME THAT MOST OF YOUR VOLUMINOUS POSTS ARE MOSTLY LIKE THE ONES YOU POSTED JUST NOW.....EMPTY ONE-LINERS:nuts:

SERVES YOU RIGHT , :)

@ mike: yeah, let's hang 'm real high! :cool:

@ THERENNAISSANCEMAN: any next post of you in this thread with capitalized letters and you can find yourself another one to go yelling around.

We're working on a three server setup for the forums to cope with growth, we're just awaiting the third one (= second web server). After this is connected, the ever growing forums should be back on speed. Thanks for your patience.Nice to tell that we're getting our 7th server this week. This new one will be a new web server so we won't have to wait untill things slow down this time, one old webserver will also be the new fun project server. :)

Why did you bring this 2 year old thread back?

NOTHING MUCH...I JUST NOTICED THAT ADMINISTRATORS ARE THE ONES WHO ARE SOURCE OF BELLIGERENT REPLIES FROM THEIR MEMBERS BY SETTING A BAD EXAMPLE , JUST LOOK AT HOW JAN REPLIED TO MY HONEST QUERIES ( I EVEN THANKED HIM FOR IT IF HE COULD OFFER AN EXPLANATION ) ITS APALLING THAT ADMINISTRATORS AROUND HERE ARE ONLY AS DOWNRIGHT ARROGANT AS THE PEOPLE THEY ACCUSE OF THEREBY ESCALATING THE CONFLICT. NOT TO MENTION "REINFORCEMENTS " ADDED ON BY THEIR FRIENDS TO TOP THINGS OFF. SIMPLE AS THAT

I don't say this often to people, but this time I really, really mean it.

You sir, have to be one of the least benightedly unintelligent organic life forms it has been my profound lack of pleasure not to be able to avoid meeting.
