When I use to be on the home page the recents posts were on the right. Now it has the categories. What changed? Or did I change my layout somehow?

Yes, we had to temporarily take that down. It was the first thing I checked too. [sad face]

We found out it was a major cause for slowing down the site, sending too many hits to the database.

We will have a similar feeds list up and running soon, it will be a little bit different though, more of just an RSS feed.

Hmmmm. Are you sure it wasn't on your end? You can test the connection speed of your ISP on sites like this: http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest

If all sites are slow it is obviously an ISP issue. If it is only bogley then we have a problem Houston. Bogley has been running pretty smooth for me since I made changes to the db and eliminated some heavy hitting query's.

We will get the "latest posts" back up on the home page soon. Need to tinker with that a bit. :2thumbs:

I am at work and bogley has been slow. Same as yesterday at home. It just gave me a critical error message. Then when I tried to go back in I got a message that said the website was down.
I know I am not a big shot :bootyshake: so maybe Us pond scum do not get the faster connection but I think it is still sick.

Yeah, we saw that today too, it was around 12:30 I think.

Just so everybody knows, we want to completely avoid an "Elite Members" club with the BigShots. We just want to in some way give rewards to those who would like to donate.

We are still looking into this problem though, but it has dramatically improved. Thanks for your feedback.

Hopefully it will only be a hiccup here and there instead of constant slowdowns. I am continuing to monitor it. I was looked at dedicated servers the other day. This would be our next step to stamp out traffic problems. They run $150-175 bones a month. :scared:
