    OK we realy need to do something here. everywhere i try to go i get an error that says "The server is to busy...." and i managed to get to the whos online list and we have 7 1/2 pages of guests. is it possible to limit the number of guests we have on here? or do something please. this is realy getting tiring and i do realize that the staff probably already has a lot on their plates but it realy is starting to get on mine and several other peoples nerves

    I definitely agree. (stolen from Hang Out #38)

    Always more guests than members, and the Server is too busy error is bugging me too. Now there are over 100 guests online. Just what about 6th this month, there were 882 people here simultaneously

    Could some group want to lag our severs to death... last month the max # of guest we had online at one time was 60 now it's 190... we should not have become that popular in less then a month... unless it has something to do with SN going down...

    Besides, 882.. that's unnaturaly high.

    What's worse, of the 215 people on line right now, only 112 are viewing anything... that mean's that ether 100 are viewing the index, or they are searching.

    When not signed in there should be a huge thing at the the top of the forum. Which only goes away when you're signed in. See where I'm going with this?

    Hmm.. you're right, the number of guests is unnaturally high. Probably someone trying to DDOS our server. I'll look into this and see whether we can fix the problem, just please be a little patient since I'm slightly busy these days with exam preparations.
    I hope you understand.
