Title: Some changes to topic settings ...
Post by: jcf on April 04, 2020, 04:59:52 AM: Hey folks,

Because of what's going on globally with increased net traffic affecting speeds etc., I've
reduced the number of posts visible per page of a topic, and reduced the max display
width of linked photos.

This is because I've noticed a variation in page generation time on some of the fatter
topics, I've made the changes in hopes of reducing server load going forward. Hopefully
this will help us avoid or reduce potential issues.

Cheers, Jon

Post by: kitnut617 on June 03, 2022, 10:55:44 PM: I hadn't been on the forum for all of last week due to a stay in hospital (8 days). I hadn't seen any issues before, but since the stay, whenever I sign in, or once in, try to open a topic, I'm getting a page which says it can't connect to the page, which lasts about a few seconds, then the page opens. This morning though, this can't connect message is lasting a bit longer.

That's, once again, at the GoDaddy server end rather than forum configuration. >:( :-X
