slow forum

Hi jooolie, sorry for the slow loading times, we'll be making some server upgrades over the next week, so look for some speed increases coming soon.

thank you its just really slow i thought it might be due to the changes i know when you get more emotions it slows things then i thought about all the pms that arnt being deleted would that slow the forum down i havnt much idea when it comes to the technical side of things i will leave it in your very trusting hands
thankyou

 just to let you know it is slower than ever this morning it has taken me 10 minutes to get onto the help forum

Several of my forum members can't get access either. Explorer times out.
This very frustrating. I switched over to Lefora as the previous one was always slow
and going down, now 3 times in less than 2 weeks we've experienced problems.
Slow load times, no access and the image problems. I hope the upgrades take care of
all of this. We're already really frustrated.

well at least its not just me and my pc I was almost resorting to going out to buy a new one thinking it was me lol........it seems to have come about since the changes recently made.....one of my members has mentioned is it a bandwidth problem..Help us Please chiefy chief
jools x

My Forum is also experiencing slow loads and if not careful when submitting you can double post since you get taken to a blank page which if you hit the back button and resubmit this will cause it to double post. I have learned to open a new tab to Forum and check to see if the post has gone through, thus avoiding the doubling.

I suspect with all the MSN groups moving to Lefora, there is just a large increase in traffic that is bogging things down. Chief has said that over the next couple of weeks that they would be improving the Servers to handle things. (see news category)

sorry about the delays, it's been fine for me this morning, but we may have had a spike of activity a little earlier.  We're in the process of a major server and hosting upgrade and should have it ready over the next week or two.
