Hey all,
I spoke with our hosting company who were amazing enough to actually contact me first once they read this thread in the forum. They haven't seen any performance issues on the server, it's running just fine. I myself haven't noticed the poor performance mentioned, the site is loading fine for me and I'm on it throughout the day.
A few things I've done since the initial thread posting:
1) Turned on gzipping which compresses the pages as they are sent, theoretically speeding the time they are sent to your browser and cutting down on bandwidth
2) Removed the vbulletin 'high server load' error message completely, which was set up to appear when there was high traffic.
let me know if you're still experiencing the same issues! Thanks!

I haven't experienced a high server load message in a while now.

Ditto. Last one was probably a week ago.
Also, @Chad: Not sure if you care about what type of ads you have on this site (and not that I was offended), but there's an ad about the 69 position. Lmao. Don't know if you care or not. If you do: cool, if you don't: ignore post.
XD

@lawley - if you see inappropriate ads from our third party ad providers appear on the site, take a screenshot and email them to [email protected] om and we will request an immediate take down notice. Thanks! |

you can take screenshots on your iphone by pressing(not holding) both home and power buttons at the same time. The screen should flash white and the image appears in your camera roll.

So it appears the server issues have been corrected, and I thank you all for your feedback.
