The site is lagging buddy, just fyi. Took me all morning to be able to create this thread. I understand you have 0 posts ever, but i cant drop knowledge bombs on bearsbetas in these harsh conditions.

If you are real, can you also please allow @gus to post in locked threads? But maybe fix the DDOS issue first... not that i'm telling you how to do your new job.

Also, if you are real, welcome! Looking forward to your first post!

The last time CCS was running this slowly TJ was doing a mass search which shut the site down for 3-4 days

I donated 50$ to #MCCSGA

But srs Rush, the hosting can't be the main problem.

The software must be 10+ years old.

Databases underneath are probably 10+ years old.

Might be time to look at a real update of the platform.

If new features are being considered, can "reply notifications" be a thing here?

It's nice to wake up and see how many people/what people have had their CCS experience improved by reading my posts.

I'm not saying this is a bad suggestion or anything, but maybe the time when the site is taking 17 years to load a webpage isn't the most optimal time to be making "game changing" suggestions. My mans Anthony has enough on his plate at the atm.

From what I have found out from Rush.

This forum sits on top of a Windows Server 2000 machine that hosts a series of MS Access 1998 database files.

Hoping to upgrade to MS Access 2003.

^^^^^this. gonna need 3 more months before we can do the fix.

But in reality - it's just excessive usage. We're talking with the hosting.

I knew it!


Deleting a bunch of shit over time with VBulletin usually fubars things in the end. Posts, user accounts, etc.

If using VBulletin, make a Bit Bucket forum to dump the dreck so you aren't deleting and screwing up linkages.

@Rush can you at least answer the question on everyone's mind?

Is @AnthonyG a real girl?

Most of the files are on floppy disks in a box.

Cold sotrage. I like it. All my posts are safe 4evs!

Can't be hacked if the files are stored in a box in Rush's basement.

I fully support your decision to finally allow Prope to post in locked threads. He's earned it.
