Anyone else having slow down problems with the boards today then? or is it just me, seems to take an age to load any new pages.
It does take a while 
me and helen couldnt get on this morning.
same here, a few problems getting in, BUT I could happily ping and FTP into the account with no problems.
I know Andy is on NTL, so am I, what about you KefKef ?

Might just be NTL
194.168.4.100 packed up earlier which might have an impact. only noticed as I didn’t configure a secondary.
Yeah, I got database errors this end from home and work and when it started working it was very slow:(
Seems fine now though.
2 seperate ISP’s
I know Curly was having probs with sites the other night and he’s NTL too.
Forum’s fine for me on Pipex
was down here DB errors bout 8:30am here refresh didnt work so I just gave it time
Could I ask that people take a look at the amount of attachments they have please. Goto your control panel and then click attachments, can you make a judgement on whether the attachment was definately needed.
At the moment they are stored in the DB, which is a 20Mb or so extra load of the already creaking DB, I may have to perform a post prune in some forums soon. I’ve been moving some of the larger, most viewed attachments to my hosting, would just help me out a little bit if you could review for me 
:cheers:

Mine’s clean too (most pics are links to my own webspace) :nod:

really slow around 8.30. time outs and DB errrors. since 10.30 its been ok.
:cheers: all for looking at the attachments, server load is still reporting pretty high, 160 odd guests not helping matters :sigh:
