Man... I was hoping that you guys were putting up GW 6 or something.

Oh, well.

they did. You can't tell?

I wasn't lying. GW is running out of RAM, and it does start swapping everytime someone does a search. It's for sure that it slows down the forums.

So, say that if 50 members used search at once, what would happen?

Wasn't the search function the reason why we decided to switch server in the first place?

Yeah, because ANYONE searching would kill the server.

Regardless of any problems we have now, GW is simply much faster and stable than it was before.

WHY SO SERIOUS HAHAHAHHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA

I always thought that the recent problem with GW was allowing Blacks and Homosexuals to join.

Maybe, I'm a bit bumping here but I can't enter the site and I don't have IRC or anything just MSN...
What should I do?

Be more specific than that. What happens when you try to enter? If it's something that doesn't have to do with the issue at hand, you should post a topic in Site Feedback Forum (with detailed explanation of your problem).

Anyway, regarding the original issue, I can with some sort of confident say that the broken CPU fan apparently was the source of most of the problems, since the forums have pretty much worked flawlessly ever since it was replaced. The search should be somewhat more efficient with the next version of SMF, at least if we enable the fulltext search engine that it has. Anyway since it hasn't been a problem now, it's all good.

big thanx to dragonslayer for sig!

Hrmmm... I still experience some serious slowdowns with some regular frequency. But maybe it's on my side of things. It is definately much better than it was before the fan got fixed, though.

Same here, but it's possibly the search problem.

Stop searching, everyone!

Download IRC.
Anyways, your problem is with the mainsite, no?
It's dead. You can't do shit on it.

A lot of the main site is corrupted, so you can't log in on it anymore.

Careful. The enemies of GW may try to crash us by searching us to death.

Has GW been incredible slow, choppy and buggy for anyone else lately?

I'm getting this error all the time (I think it's timing out):

EDIT:
Also, it takes nearly a minute from the time I click Post to when it actually posts. It didn't use to take any time at all.

I get that probably 50% of the time I attempt to load a page. It's very annoying...

That’s right, you have the young gaming with the old(er), white people gaming with black people, men and women, Asian countries gaming with the EU, North Americans gaming with South Americans. Much like world sporting events like the Wolrd Cup, or the Olympics will bring together different nations in friendly competition, (note the recent Asian Cup; Iraq vs. Saudi Arabia, no violence there) we come together. The differences being, we are not divided by our nationalities and we do it 24-7, and on a personal level.

We are a community without borders and without colours, the spirit and diversity of the gaming community is one that should be looked up to, a spirit and diversity other groups should strive toward.
