I always get the "Internet explorer cannot load the web page", or it says "500 Internal Server Error" or it doesn't load, or it loads really slow but it's just plain Times New Roman text with a plain white background and all of the information centered. It's been that way for at least two weeks now, and I've gone a few days at a time without my "fix"... I need it ioi!

The site was crap for me this morning, but is now flying - fingers crossed this is permanent, and stays like this forever :)

PS - love the "page generation" time at the bottom of a page, nice!

I think the site clock got mucked up :) Some posts are appearing out of order.

Still - it seems to be working. In the last 5min, the number of users has jumped from 450 to almost 1000 - and the site is still lightning fast.

Woohoo! (crosses fingers...)

Wow! As of 5:45 PM Pacific time on 10/31/07, the site is lightning fast!

Just had an outage for a few minutes - but seems to be back... I think.

Would really love to know what is going on - wouldn't be surprised if the server was dodgy, or configured badly (etc...).

Trust me that once everything is working properly the site will be very very quick and hopefully with no major downtime...

 I hope so.

Site will hopefully be fixed tomorrow when i get full root access to the server and can tweak the database settings. I think we must be maxing out the mysql database at present, causing the system to 'overload' at times.

In IOI we trust...
