Patrick Posted February 8, 2003 Posted February 8, 2003 Hey everyone, Here's what happened. At some point, we got so active that we were putting too much load on the server for our hosting partner. So they suspended the account. They unsuspended it now and I have a few things I am going to be employing to bring the load down. But, I apologize for the downtime. Thanks.

G95champ Posted February 8, 2003 Posted February 8, 2003 Thats a good problem right. LOL (General George S. Patton Jr.) "It's the unconquerable soul of man, and not the nature of the weapon he uses, that ensures victory."
Patrick Posted February 8, 2003 Author Posted February 8, 2003 Not when the site goes down. If it happens again, I am not too sure what we're gonna do.

Patrick Posted February 8, 2003 Author Posted February 8, 2003 After a bit of research and consulting with a few people, I believe that we've found out what did it. "Google did it!" It seems that they were trying to spider half of our 5,000 plus topics... all at once. I have disabled the code letting them in and won't be putting it back on until it is safe to do so.
