Why is it that whenever i try to access the site (around the time i am writing this) most of the time i get errors when trying to read threads? I get server errors and ie errors. Its even harder to reply to messages, i'll be surprised if this goes through on the first time.

Yep. Well aware of the fact. We placed finally an order for eight servers yesterday, so these issues will get sorted shortly.

eight new servers dedicated just to the forums? Wow. Didn't you say earlier that the search engine in the forum is what slows the servers down the most?

No, eight servers to run the whole site. Current setup:
-one P4 web box running English, Finnish and DVDXCopy forums
-one P4 web box running the English and Finnish main site, Dawnload.net and MP3Lizard.com
-one P4 box running the database for all sites and the forums
-one P4 box running nameserver, ads, and downloads
-one box running nameserver, log analysis, images, downloads etc
Upcoming setup:
-one external (in addition of eight boxes) failover-protected load balancer
-three load-balanced Dual Xeon 2.8GHz web servers, running all sites and forums
-two Dual Xeon 2.8GHz database servers, load-balanced, failover protected
-one 20Mbps unmetered Celeron box running software downloads
-one Dual Xeon 2.8GHz server running ads
-one Dual Xeon 2.8GHz server running images, name servers, log analysis, etc

flip: That's pretty much the first thing that I will re-implement once the whole server move is over, we've received tons of complains about the Google thingy we have now.

my guess is that admin is busy updating with new severs, so maybe some glitches and disconnections because of that. I've learned to copy your message before posting, in case it doesn't connect

We've experienced extremely bad luck with servers for the last 5 days. Our server guy (ketola) is building the new servers as we speak and we truly hope to make the switch at around 22nd of February.

Was just wondering if asking for a temporary stopage to unnecessary posts would help any. I enjoy having fun along with everyone else but if having all those threads running is causing some of the slow down then it would be better to use the forum for actual question/answer threads just for the few weeks until the new equipment is up and running. I don't think most of the members would have a problem with that if it helps getting access to the forum. There are times I can't even get to the forum home page. Just a suggestion.
