site REALLY slow?

[IvyBat]

Is it just me, or is the server going mad slow tonight?

[borschtBomber[SS]]

Yes, its been slow..to the point it times out on me. :(

yeah, sorry guys... we hit the front page of Digg.com once again today (thanks for the diggs!!). we are looking into this matter on the server side... should they not be able to offer us a better hosting package that can take the traffic, we will be taking our hosting needs elsewhere...

[IvyBat]

we're too good for them! suckers =P haha

[borschtBomber[SS]]

well, at least the site slowness was for a good reason (Digg) rather than something going down the crapper :lol:

just a quick update...

we are looking into a dedicated server as we speak and will more than likely be placing our order for it tonight.

the digg from yesterday brought the most site hits ever in such a short span of time... nearly 30,000 hits in the past 24 hours which proved to be way too much for our current server.

Sorry to be off subject but I must.
Playa the only thing I see correct in your sig is the 22's.

haha, yeah well that is partly true

i still use the amd system as my main rig. the sli intel system is strictly a test system.. but you are right, i need to add that in somewhere :)

[Avalanche]

I must have misunderstood the other post. I thought the AMD was going to be your test rig.

[playafly187]

oh, nope, AMD is my 24/7 rig... intel sli is test rig

[Avalanche]

I am thinking I need to be a student again so I can get an Intel SLi rig for testing!

[playafly187]

wow, ok this is great, the hosting company already has the site up and running on the new server! besides my blog not working at the moment, everything else seems to be running along smooth... so you know what that means, DIGG.com here we come!

if any of you haven't registered yet for digg.com I would really appreciate if you could take a few minutes to do so and digg this review. i want to see if the new server can take the traffic abuse!
