[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Hows the site running???

Posted: 7/18/2001 8:14:56 PM EDT

It's flying on my end with ~300 connected now...

Another set of upgrades to speed will come in the near future (last of the big performance boosts I hope!)

For now, it's back to content for me! (Well, tomorrow anyhow!)

Giddyup!

Seems faster and no troubles to report so far. Thanks.

Seems faster over here - pages are loading in about 2-3 seconds for me (used to be 5-7). Thanks for all the effort you keep putting into this site!

Hey GoatBoy,

I posted this link on the Tactics and Training page: [url]http://155.217.58.58/rtddltextv.html[/url]

Its a link to the Army Doctrin and Training Digital Library, a unclassified US Army site that has most of the Army's Field and Training manuals on it for either online reading or download. Could you please go and thumbtack it to the top of the TnT page perminently, its a very useful refrence source.

Thanks

Tom Peters, aka ArmdLbrl

Sorry to be negative, but it is very slow.[V] I dont understand all other sites are the same only AR15.com is slow.[bouce], And what is the deal with [bounce], it never works for me!

edited to change bouce to bounce and put it between [ ] so it works!

Working pretty well even for me, and its usually deathly slow on this collection of junk disguised as a computer.

Going good, although tonight (approx. 21:00 PDT) I had to go back and edit a number of posts because Board Code was showing up in the text. Looks like the Board Code parser no longer likes capital letters.

Example:

1) It likes [green]This should be green[/green]

2) It doesn't like [Green]This should be green[/green]

The differences being [ green ] . . . [ / green ] versus [ Green ] . . . [ / green ]

Otherwise - Three cheers for GoatBoay!!!![beer]
Or - Three beers [beer][beer][beer] for Goatboy!!!

There are no virgin cheerleaders involved, but it's at full ramming speed. Great job.

CRAP! I forgot to mention some of the board code changes... *slapping myself*

I'll post this in the news post as well..

BOARD CODE CHANGES!!!
=====================

I'll make sure the tags are not case sensitive anymore, that was my mistake. (Rewrote the code handler procedure.) I'll also update the help files when I get the chance!

-- EMAILS : They now [b]REQUIRE[/b] the use of the new tag [b][[/b]email[b]][/b] in order to parse properly. I got sick of random things being turned into links. There's just no easy way to do this, so like links, you must use the code to create email links.

-- CODE CHECKER : The board code is now balanced and will simply ignore tags which are not completed. (So if you place a [b][[/b]green[b]][/b] tag, but forget to close it, it just shows up in the post.)

Just wanted to get these things online as they were sitting there. Not much of a performance gain, but better for making sure messages don't blow up a topic.

I have noticed that the first couple of weeks I only had to log in once, but now I have to login everytime I get on board. Something change?
Also, something else not related to just this board, but sometimes when I click on a forum, link, or anything that takes me somewhere else, it won't do anything for approx a 45 sec to a minute, if at all. Sometimes I can click on it the second time and it jumps imeditly. I've reloaded Internut exploder several times and still have the problem. I thought it was the mouse, but changed that, any ideas, besides Nutscrape or any of the others.

problem? i'm only getting access to one page of active topics for the day- did something change?

Your new site is working great! Its a lot faster for me at work, thanks, now I can get even LESS WORK done than before [:D]

Posted: 7/19/2001 9:10:44 AM EDT

[#27]

The slow loading times are a thing of the past for me (I also moved that magnet away from the computer). I like the site and it seems to work just fine, Thanks!

You're right about the activeTopics...

The code changed to span all the forums, not just one. Somewhere in there a gremlin must have gotten into the code...

Will fix... also have a new link to add called MyActiveTopics which will pull up all the topics you have created with new content... figured it was easier than doing a search for those of us who are lazy.
