Some people on this new board may be too young to cantr to remember the days of the constant bandwidth problems, but I was wondering... this forum must take quite a chunk out of cantr's bandwidth. Not to mention, when people use this site it slows down cantr. Of course many of you know I like the old forums better, but I again suggest that we should use the other one. And yes I realise it is ironic to suggest we stop using this baord by posting a message on this board. lol

We are not currently experiencing any problems with bandwidth ...

Yeah, the only actual problem is that the server likes to make us mad ^^

Well...if there's no bandwidth problem..can we all have like another hundred minutes because we've been so good? pleeeeaaaase? ::puppy eyes:: :shock:

..erm.. that's not how it wassupposed to look >_>

Since I'm at school, I tend to log on when I have a free minute...so I'm usually on top of things...but yeah some days I come close.

I still think things would be better if the forum was on a sepparate server!

That would also be twice as expense, as we'd have to support 2 servers.

Hmm I don't think so, there are companies that offer free bulletin boards and the like.... !

If that were possible in this instance, don't you think we'd already be doing it?

Yes - and they have incredibly limited bandwidth - there's no way a forum of this size could work on 'free BBS' sites, which are only usually used to host very small boards.

The board overhead is minor and rarely (in fact never) has been the cause of poor server performance in the last year or so

The flexibilty of running our own board far out weigh any advantages in using a free 3rd party host.
