I'm about to move the forums to a new server (MM's new one mentioned here and here). You may experience a few weird loading times, blank pages, error messages, or may not be actually on the new "copy" of the forums for the next 10-15 minutes.

On the other hand, you may not notice anything at all.

I've already found at least one problem with the forums on the new server, I will be working to correct it. (it has to do with how non-english characters are displayed)

FliesLikeABrick · « **Reply #2 on:** September 13, 2007, 09:58:59 pm »

ok, fixed. PLEASE report any other problems of any sort (new things that have just started tonight)

Course your ability to ~~double~~ triple post!

Cool, glad to hear its up.

Anyone noticing faster loading times? I never payed attention.

That seems a little faster....might be a coincidence though.

(spell check does work for me btw)

Thanks, spell check was one of the things I knew I still needed to check.

Asides from the random "You have already posted this message!" bug that happens for no reason, nothing. Still happened on the old server, though, I have been wondering about that one.

Spell check doesn't seem to work for me. I get this error.

pspell_new() [function.pspell-new]: PSPELL couldn't open the dictionary. reason: No word lists can be found for the language "en".

Firefox 2 has its own spell checker! You can download more dictionaries as well.

Latest version of IE. It's rare, but still happens from time to time.

From what I've seen, most of that is caused by "acceleration" features built into IE or the FasterFox plugin in Firefox

The site caching software? People actually fall for that?

Next time you get the error check the time and date on the page.

I've been experiencing a lot of forum slowness.Â And when I try to attach something to a post, it takes a really long time.

how big is the attachment you're trying to add?

BlueBerry Pie · « **Reply #18 on:** September 21, 2007, 08:08:52 pm »

About 20 megabytes.

And you're still wondering why it's taking so long? 20 MB for uploading isn't exactly small, you know.
