Can anything be done to speed up this uF this weekend?

General question to anyone at uF admin. Is anything being done to accommodate the additional crush of users this weekend. I haven't seen it below 200 users in 3 days.

In light of the continuing IG updates all day coupled with opening weekend, it doesn't appear traffic is going to lessen anytime soon. I would have made many posts today, but it's taking several minutes for each screen to load and I'm on a computer with a T1 connection.

Help!

Not much can be done beyond not adding attachments if they are not necessary (hint hint), and being patient and not click Submit over and over. If you try to submit a post and the page hasn't changed to an error page or is just showing constantly loading, just leave it be. There's a rash of duplicate posts and threads arising because of impatience with the server. Play Nice - with the server. Very Happy

This slow down happens every time there is a huge event within a game. You should have seen it before the move to the new server last year. SpaceBass runs this place himself (and until we started the fundraising last year it was also on his own dime). With some generous donations last year he was able to upgrade and access a bigger server.

Just as Euchre said. Have patience. Think about posting on existing threads and avoid attachments and images (I'm sure they have all already been posted at this point - unless you get an exclusive picture of an action figure or JJ Abrams himself with you at the movie Wink )
