User Wipe |

I was forced to wipe all users with 0 posts.
This was not a personal decision, it might have been the cause of the recent errors we have experienced.
I would like you all to assist me and reply to this thread if you experience any Internal Server Errors or "LAH is overloaded", as they are called now.
Thank you.
Sat

I know.
I want to give loli to everyone, and many visitors don't speak english and everything, but it seems to have been necessary for proper working of lah.

good desicion.
euhm i do have a question. does the amount of topics created also contribute to the internal errors? if they do it would be smart to delete topics in the intro, discussions and pub threads that have been inactive for a long time just saying.
so far no internal errors anymore. yay

3506 registered users. Wow, just... wow. I don't feel bad for the english leechers but I do for the other language speakers. Why don't you include this in the FAQ? Tell them that they have to have at least one post to stay active.

I don't think it's something that's necessarily going to happen regularly. But . . . wow. Only 3500 users?

It was not all. If you want the full story, here.
So we were getting these errors and they happened more and more often.
We are only getting them on this host, because it's resources are limited.
I ordered us a server with more resources, but we will have to pay more, and open up donations :/
It usually takes a couple of weeks to change, so we were in a kind of a "waiting phase".
But then, yesterday I got an e-mail from our hosting company, that apparently, lah has stacked
so many database queries, that it crashed down the whole server with all other sites on it yesterday morning.
I thought, that can't be true. Thankfully, this person also sent me the queries that were causing the most trouble. One of them was going thru all users checking their data, whenever someone was loading the page.
It was the little "leecher detector" I had on the bottom at the usercount. As you see its gone now.
But all of these had one thing in common. They were all functions which would go thru the list of all registered users, and searching thru 35000 records (x10, possibly, as everyone has their name, e-mail, messengers, etc stored) every time the index page was loaded.
So yeah, I have removed anything that would cause any extra load from the code, took a backup of the database and then erased all users with 0 posts. Sure, I got flooded with "can't log in" mails, but meh.
Now all the functions only have to run thru 3500 records, which seems to have eliminated it.
At start, I wanted to have a big membercount to make us look big and popular, but geez. We already are big and popular, 2.5 million people visit LAH every day. The registered user count isn't that important anymore.
This is pretty much temporary. I am sure the registrations will go back up pretty fast again, but I'll hope the errors wont return that fast now that I also excluded unnecessary code.

Hmmm it surprised me after seeing one of your speeches about Loli for everyone, but I understand. I'll refrain from any cleansing jokes as well. I had 1 server error when I came today, but since then nothing.
