Post Forum locked for guests Quote
Well, some of you may have noticed the outage 2 days ago.

It was caused by our new hoster, apparently lah generates over 2 million DB queries daily, and is overloading the server. I am now trying to reduce this... by disabling guest access to all boards. Only registered users can now read the boards.

I know this will be pretty bad for our publicity. Google indexes lah every day, and brings people to the forum by returning searches. Also, many do "window shopping" and then register. But if we won't be able to reduce the queries, we aren't allowed to have lah, apparently.

I will look what we can do. There might be a possibility of hosting the database elsewhere... if someone has any offers, you know how to contact me Feather Kawaii 3

We have a whole lot of regulars, so I guess it will be fine... even though we will probably disappear from google...


Sat

I thought the trend for LAH is that we're always on the shadows? Or was this policy changed after the hosting change?

I am not sure but perhaps it is enough to lock the threads only so that users can still see wat they are missing? That´s what I experienced on most boards. Razz

@ Fragnostic

This is not a nice way to greet new users ;_;

Ah well, the less publicity we get, the better, I suppose.

Maybe we could make a preview section that has a little bit of stuff in it for guests? So they can see what we have... though they'd probably just leech off that. Sad

NOOB! is just a noob after all... I am greeting every single user who passes 10 posts very cheerfully... The rest is just annoying with "I forgot to read the rules I cant see the pass" thing.
They will just register and leech with 1 post or with no posts...

vjuch, they could see of course, not post. But it still overloaded the database.

I would have to disagree frag not every new person is a noob, a person with x amounts of posts can still be a noob just by how they act.

As the change wasnt visible almost at all, the guest reading for selected sections has been enabled again. All discussion sections are NOT readable by guests. We are protecting your chats from google/etc.
