Effects of the forum tweeks [Important]

gimil · Post by **gimil** » Sat Feb 09, 2008 9:29 pm

As announced by twill there has been some forum tweeks. This is to try and increase the database performance in peak hours which should reduce the site lagging and crashing which has been happening of late. The tweeks include reduce the number of threads per page from 50 to 25 and reduce the number of posts per page in a thread by half as well. Unfortunalty this has effected the foundry in a negative manner.

Most cartorgraphers post the page of there newest update in the title of there production thread Since the reduced number of posts per page, this has increased the number of pages each thread making the update page in title wrong.

This may be bad for people wanting to view updates but for the C.A's it will be hellish and make it harder to follow developments.

For now I urge everyone to post all updates in the first post of there development threads and mark them with a date and time. This will make my life and the rest of the C.A's life easier:)

Thanks for listening guys, Twill has assured me that this shouldn't last for more than a couple of days.

And the fact that it's a stickied announcement doesn't do that by default?

The foundry folk are more "special" than other forum users

not really, just change the number at the end of the URL.
