Server timeouts and database connection errors appear to be down to a performance bug in the current release of PHP. A fix has been made but it has not yet been released as 'stable', so we will have to wait a little while until we can see a performance improvement :(

I have added a EVE online forum and forums for the two WoW guilds. I will sort out the usergroups after I get back on Monday.

Will the commanders' office ever return?

Are the 2 new WoW forums currently open to all visitors or only to people that have joined the WoW usergroup?

[GuardianAnge1]

1.44gb bandwidth usage is quite a bit for a forum

Will the commanders' office ever return? Yes there will be one for PS soon. Are the 2 new WoW forums currently open to all visitors or only to people that have joined the WoW usergroup? I didn't have time to test the permissions, but they should only be available to people in the WoW usergroup. 1.44gb bandwidth usage is quite a bit for a forum I wasn't that suprised about the bandwidth usage, though your comment suggests I should be. What are you basing that assessment on?

Other interesting stats:

Browsers used:
Internet Explorer: 83%
Firefox: 15%
Other: 2%

Someone from the US Department of State (www.state.gov) has 752 page views, generating over 30mb of traffic on this site!

The RL logo image accounts for 250mb of data downloaded from the site (probably due to it being used on the CS:S Message of the Day).

The forums are most popular between 15:00 and 16:00 GMT. The forums get visited most often on Thursdays.

I have personally generated over 60mb of traffic on the site :D

[GuardianAnge1]

you're sayin that someone from the US government has looked at our site over 752 times?!

[ForakExertus]

We do have a thread about Bush. I bet he and his 751 office buddies had to make sure it was no threat :D

[Brask]

the US gov stuff scares me :eek:

but damn ppl use more FIREFOX !!!!!!!!!!!

I repeat:

F.I.R.E.F.O.X

its the best browser ever and much more secure than IE crap.

[Daymare]

opera all the way :)
Anyway, yes, I bet that the stuff is from FBI random data tracing programs or similar, searching for stuff about bush to see it is no threat.

There is quite a lot of activity from unregistered users, which I find slightly alarming...

[GuardianAnge1]

Also - over how long did he look at the forum?
