I've just made a pretty significant change to the back end of the forums (also your mums) so let me know if you see any weird behaviour. Thanks.

test post

your mum?

test your mum

thats a nice backend.... got pics?

OMGS ITS ALL BROKENZ!@

Just kidding.

seems to be working for me.

it's soooo fast now

new and faster spam

it still looks all borked and takes forever to load on my pda

(just kidding, i didn't bother checking)

your mum?

ISWYDT!

Be interested to hear if it "feels" faster to anyone

It took about 20 seconds to load a page about 15 minutes ago but now that I came back to my pc for another look it's going super duper fast.

Lotsa cookies?

*Edit* When posted my page just hung for ages and wouldnt return to the thread till I clicked to do so.

What changes have you made trog? It still feels the same...and speed wise it fluctuates. For example, 10 minutes ago we couldn't get anything to load, whilst now they load fine. However, there is not a marked difference in speed that we are noticing.

Yeh I broke some s*** before, that was a separate thing

Aight fair enough

trog, you're a dweeb

Trog, general consensus between Sue and myself is that there is a speed difference overall, so you are achieving your obvious goal. Also, if speed is the target on this one, are you open to some feedback on code?

That's not what your mum says while I'm gazing at the top of her head. Actually she might be saying that, but most of what she says is pretty indistinct.

Goferit

but most of what she says is pretty indistinct.

nor is it listened to.

If speed is a concern, make the forums red, everyone knows red is faster !

Oh hell no!
I like the subdued blues that do not offend my eyes.

trog, I will PM my thoughts shortly.

FB

theres more polygons

nope, no good
my post limit is still 300 seconds

PM sent trog

my post limit is 1200 seconds :(

Posting in an epic thread about your mum's backend.

I have not encountered my speed limiter.....you guys must just be spammers!
(Or Spooks so old that trog does not believe that he can work the computer fast enough to post more than once every 300seconds :P)

what the heck is a post limit

it's a nerd form of "tall poppy syndrome".

there was an informal competition a while ago to see who could get the most consecutive posts in different threads in the shortest amount of time. While some people though it was a bit spammy and detracted from the forum, awards were given out to the winners called Post Limits - it'd be worth going for a run through some threads, particularly old ones, see if you can beat any records, you basically run through threads posting comments to try and get the whole root of the forum last updated by you.

NOTE: it doesn't count if you do it in non-peak usage time though, must be between 5pm and midnight - if you can only get like top 10 threads at 4am on a wednesday it doesn't count.

what the heck is a post limit

If you have to ask, you're not r-tard enough to know

you can bet thats a post limitin'

a post limit is when you've reached the maximum number of fence posts you can knock out in one drift f***up.

So erhm what's the difference?

haha

So erhm what's the difference?

The difference is its now using some caching stuff that was written a while back and broken, it seems, slightly less of a while back. So theoretically it should be a little faster.
