Why does this site not work lately ?

I was trying to log on yesterday and this site would not load.... i've also noticed that lately it says "server busy" when I try to get into these forums...

Is it cause it's so popular ?

Yes, the past couple of days I've had trouble too and get a message telling me that the server is too busy and to try later!


Also, I wondered the same and looked at how many people were on and there weren't many at all?

I've also recieved the server busy message. Also it seems that the amount of people posting on this fourm has gone down in the past week or so.

It is because all the bandwidth on the server is being used up by people asking why the forum is not working.... LOLOLOLOL

Ya, I noticed that too, and guess a lot of people are on vacation now as schools will begin to start very soon.

WHat I've noticed is email messages from the server telling me that a tracked thread was just posted too.. then I can't even reach the site. I've always assumed it was my ISP that was freaking out.

The diesel discussion forum seems to be both the open discussion and tech help combined!

Or so I've noticed, recently.

I've witnessed the same occurence.

A couple of members here have been pushing for the webmasters to relocate Diesel Discussion from where it was (now general discussion) below to where it has just recently been placed, right under Tech section.

Maybe this introduced a server problem?

Oh it did get moved..

Man I thought I was insane. For the past few days I've been opening the Open Discussion forum and wondering if I was getting senile.

That explains why.
