The forums are REALLY SLOW!

Hmm it's been a while, but the forums are slow AGAIN. Omnislash can't even load the page... Owen, would you happen to know of any updates that happen on Saturdays?

BTW: how was you trip?

I got on now

. And its working better than it was. Almost as fast as it is normally. Maybe someone with a T line was downloading pretty girls thread

I guess now because the server was about to crash

No, but it happens to be the first of the month, which means many things happen. Also, there was major downtime today due to an error during backing up. Everything's sorted now however, sorry for the problems (I was on a ferry when it happened though, so I couldn't have done anything!)

BTW: how was you trip?

Brilliant. When I have time, I'll write a bit about it here.

I was most upset to find the forums down today - so many useful posts I could have made. It was somebody logging into Messenger as "Is Anybody An Expert in PhpBB" (or similar) that made me think 'Hmmm, how strange'. Then I realised it was Omni and just put it down to an exhausted brain

.

Anyway, glad to see that they're back.

That's not good... well I wasn't on then

But sometimes that happens for me... I get an error message (I dunno, can't find page blah... ) gets annoying... but at least owens back

I was very upset yesterday, I couldn't get on the forum

But as you can read, everything is AOK

Well Owen , I'm longing for the story

GoneWacko · Post by **GoneWacko** » 02 Mar 2003 10:33

Hehe I wasn't upset... but I heard observer/Athapian say that everybody was upset... hehe... I had a really good laugh with obs yesterday

But Observer/Athipian (forgot the '<><', lol, though he doesn't use it on these forums) doesn't really visit these forums anymore?

Nope...

The servers hard drive was full. Not sure why that made a php error though

CombatGold1 · Post by **CombatGold1** » 04 Mar 2003 17:19

ahh i see its all fixed now. As I thought and told Omni, just maintenance on the server.

spaceman-spiff · Post by **spaceman-spiff** » 04 Mar 2003 18:02

It's not the servers that are slow

Post by **orudge** » 04 Mar 2003 21:52

I don't know how the backup routine works that makes the server so slow, but once a month, it does, unfortunately. There's nothing I can do about it.

Anyway, when I have time, I'll write some stuff about my trip. But I haven't really got time just now - have a look at the Outward Bound UK site anyway for a bit of information.

Me and Rob14 are going away for the weekend if anybody's interested.

We're going to Castlerigg Manor in Keswick, the Lake District with school. This trip is of course famed for the tim that Rob14 manged to break a window. I wasn't there at the time so can't take any of the blame

. One of us will probably let you know about it on Sunday/Monday.

Have fun guys, and don't break anything this time!

I seem to find the forums slow/not working a lot when I come on, but maybe that's just busyness.

Omnislash · Post by **Omnislash** » 05 Mar 2003 10:30

The forums always seem to be working quite well for me. I'm on a gig connection now and it rocks

CombatGold1 · Post by **CombatGold1** » 05 Mar 2003 18:30

It's fine on a 56k connection, apart from when you've got like 10 threads loading
