    Sorry, we're doing the very best we can with the limited funds we have to pay a web host to provide us bandwidth and space for both the forum and the files for the updater.

      If it is fund related I apologize for what may have sounded like a negative comment. By saulus' first post I was under the impression that this service was supposed to be an upgrade from the old service (generally better service costs more money), and I figured if users are having issues with the new service we should chime in. If he isn't getting his money's worth from the new service (which I was expecting to be more expensive) than there is no reason to pay extra. That's all, I'm a pretty budget minded person and when I spend money on something, especially expensive things, I expect to get my money's worth or better.

        Oh God don't take my comment as whinging, I got the impression Saulus wanted feedback on the new service, just commenting on what I was experiencing.

        I do appreciate the funding issues etc

          How is the website as of this posting? The host said they corrected something so I want to know if it seems faster for everyone or not.

              Hmm... as of now and I think earlier today, it seems to be running better, I haven't been getting the database errors or anything like that, like I was getting before. Seems fine now, I'll let you know if I notice anything repetitive in the next few days.

                The problems are less common, but still there.

                If you must know, I guess I can probably tolerate it.

                  I crashed a few times, and then could not see sundren on the server list for about 5-8 minutes. Magically it appeared and I was able to get back in. This happened twice.

                    Much, much, better now. The DB errors have seemingly gone and the timeouts are less frequent.

                    Good stuff!

                          I still haven't had a database error since you updated us on the situation, so I'm feeling optimistic that we are in the clear now, things seem to be working great. Thanks for looking into it and working the kinks out Saulus.

                              There should be a noticeable difference with the site now, I have seen it myself. I don't want to break out the champagne too early, but let me know if it seems sluggish again with consistency (so we know it's not just a bad connection for a particular user).

                                Wow... the site was unreachable for me (timing out) for nearly 6 hours....
                                URL kept timing out, and at times was giving database errors. Just now it was finally reachable again.

                                Doesn't seem to have been my connection, other sites were fine.

                                I'm glad to be back
