ello all.
I know that KKW's been suffering from a broken leg for the last couple of days. We nailed it down to a bandwidth throttle on the domain after last wednesday saw 70,000 lovely individuals visit us in the space of a few hours. Although the throttle's been changed now, I thought I might throw up a poll to see what public opinion was on the speed of things. (obviously I can only have one reference point).

Clicky more relevant option so I can complain to our hosting company.

I only got 3 503 errors.:D But else it's going pretty good. ( but not as good as it was when I joined )

For me, it almost pains me to check the forums due to the speed, let ALONE the main site. It's ick.

It took three minutes just to be able to type this reply.
Four minutes to add this tidbit

On and off here.

On one load it will be virtually instant. Next load will take 45 seconds or so but never any of these 5 minute loads or excessive 503s.

The host has now removed the throttle entirely - let me know how it's going today!

Are the Server Too Busy errors on vbulletin or the website itself?
ie - are they formatted like the forum or just black text on a white page?

Is this a blank cheque to spam it up?
Seriously though, it's running fine now.
