Sweet! All these cool updates, but its a 50/50 chance the page loads, thanks!!!!

Whats going to happen when there are more users is it going to take days to get on?

 

[94fordguy]

Great, I couldn't even get on the site for the last 50 mins...

 

[HOBB-Z]

There are some features I like but the speed or lack of has pushed me over the edge, if it wasn't for the political zone I wouldn't bother even looking at this site any more.

Me either, Snowest hit by avalanche!

 

[94fordguy]

Me either, Snowest hit by avalanche!

and obviously not an avalanche of users...

I thought firefox was supposed to be a solution? I notice your examples are using firefox. My IE has been a little slower today, but not terrible. Definitely slower than in pre-change mode.

Not a whine, just a thought that firefox may have been a fart in the wrong direction. It made you feel better, but the underlying issue still stinks.

The Modifications are NOT the cause of this.
I know I can say this a hundred times, and no one beleives me, but the problem with the servers is much deeper and more a result of the SURGE we have had in active members in just the last 2 weeks.

In either case.
We are tracking everything that is going on and working behind the scenes to attack each problem one at a time.

The #1 problem that is killing SnoWest right now are the other sites that are being powered by ColdFussion that are sharing our server, and at this point we don't have a way to offload them.


Did any of you get the database error today?

I have to call B.S. Sure seems to me like this place is a ghost town.

Hmm
There are a lot of terms you could use to describe SnoWest, but Ghost Town just doesn't seem like one of them.

Right now we have about 15,000 active viewers of the site, 11,000 of which are registered members signing into their accounts. that makes for one heck of a busy Ghost Town.

 

[tudizzle]

what exactly does active mean?

 

[tudizzle]

back in effect

I swear to god, Obama is making all the changes this forum. Promises, promises, but it's a friggin goatrope!

What is snowaction.com? Last 3 nights i have been trying to get on at random times and kept getting Method Not Implemented

GET to /forum/forumdisplay.php not supported.
Apache/2.2.0 (Fedora) Server at snowest.com Port 80

I finally did a google search thinking maybe there would be something on another sight and came up with snowaction, thats what i'm on right now snowaction.com......So i tried doing a few searches and they come up with a snowest link, which in turn gives me that 501 method not implemented code....This is the first night i have been on where the site is absolutely crawling.....usually i dont complain about speed

 

[MTm7]

hey here is a novel idea... lets add a whole bunch of BS to this site so that its even slower than it was... and then we can say its going to be the best sledding site ever! pure genius!

 

[m8magicandmystery]

i have had the ice come and go on the lakes faster then what a person can post on this site...

 

[MARCUSO]

yep too much garbage.

Time to invest in some better servers, or IT techs, I have noticed it being slower as the day progress/
