Nobody likes this shitty ass lag, so let's do something about it.
Everybody remove your entire signature (especially the .GIFs and pictures) and only use upto a 125x125 avatar that is NOT animated.
This act is set forth now, 10:01 PM, GMT-8, Pacific Time!
SAVE THE FORUM, SAVE THE WORLD.
(also, only temporarily, change your signature to
[url=http://forum.cheatengine.org/viewtopic.php?t=187139]Save Cheat Engine Forums! Remove your Signature and Fix your Avatar![/url]
(not messed up, I just disabled the bbcode in my post)

Or, we can just remove the MS section as a whole.

The bottleneck is not the bandwidth, but the CPU speed of the server Dark Byte has.
The MYSQL interface he is using is old also, so it cannot handle much.

My idea on the irc was to wipe the whole ms forum, and forward it to a free forumportal forum. | I think just locking the Ms section will be fine.

You obviously didn't read my post.
It is the CPU of the server that is the problem, not the bandwidth. With all the people constantly requesting pages, it puts load on the actual program that handles the http requests inside the server. Also, the amount of SQL queries are slowing it down because of the fact he is using an obsolete MYSQL engine.

I say that we delete people that have less than 25 posts if they havnt posted in over a month. Then we delete all the old threads that are over 6 months old and havnt been replied to. That will increase size and bandwidth
