Hi Guys

You may have noticed we had a fair bit of downtime today. Apparently ozgolf was causing an excessive load on the server causing it to crash.

They have allowed us back online providing we rectify the problem, so we are working on it at the moment, or at least trying to. I am not sure why ozgolf would be causing such a strain on the server as in theory such a small forum shouldn't. The couldn't see any signs of site abuse..

I am rebuilding the search tables in the hopes that will help as they are quite large. I need to talk to andyp a bit more about it as he knows more about this stuff than I do.

Anyway... fingers crossed we don't have any further problems.

Andyp tells me that the search tables aren't really that large. LOL I got my facts skewed.

Man I can't wait to upgrade to vbulletin! LOL

delete Jarro's posts and ban him. That would cut the server load by about 75%.

(can someone beat him up, gag and bag him at the next OZG day too?)

If someone can supply the tar - I've got tons of feathers...
