It looks like the update didn't go as smooth as planned, given how long was the site down.

And that made me realize something: I've been almost 24h without VGC and I didn't felt bad or anxious or even worried about when it would go back on line. That's very good, but it also means that I'm no longer as attached to this site as I was once, and that makes me think...

Please excuse my bad English.

Did you fix it? Or did you revert it back to a previous version?

The last maintenance isn't still going on, but you could say that tuning and fixing things that broke from it are...

Did not revert, but might have to if the increased strain on memory can't be resolved. Reverting would likely mean loosing all the posts after the update.

I think jlauro has gotten it under control for the moment - thank you!!!!

We'll be looking into some other things throughout the day, in hopes of keeping performance up...

That's great news!!

Is it just me, or did it become worse?

The connection has timed out
The server at gamrconnect.vgchartz.com is taking too long to respond.

I can't even go to the next page in a thread without hitting reload, plus it never finishes loading, keep flashing all kinds of random domains in the corner, rtbcc.tyber.com trk.vidable.tv a.contvdo.com. Adds?
