We are moving to a fatter pipe & doing some server maintenance / upgrades.

As always thanks to chilling silence & jen for their hardwork.

well, we switched over but 'provider' difficulties meant we had to switch back. they promise it's all sorted for another attempt tonight.

At least we upgraded the server & other things last night as planned.

Thanks for your patience.

880897 2010-05-04 06:51:00 Ok. It's Tuesday night, 17:30(ish), and the switch over to the 10 meg fibre link has worked (fingers crossed).

Enjoy.

880900 2010-05-04 09:20:00 That switch over must have been quick, I didn't even notice any connection outages on the forum. :thumbs: Jen (38)
880901 2010-05-04 09:25:00 I noticed some slowness, but it was brief. pcuser42 (130)
880902 2010-05-05 03:23:00 Can I make a suggestion to help combat some of the spam that seems to be increasingly prevalent.

On a couple of vBulletin forums I manage, I installed
vbStopForumSpam (www.vbulletin.org) quite some time ago, and it has been very good at stopping a high percentage of potential spammers even getting past the registration stage.
