How far back historically does this problem go? I remember someone saying that it's been on Big D's radar since a few years back. If this is so, how far back exactly.

Fight the temptation to joke at this (when tigers smoked cigarettes, comes to mind, from a native expression of "long, long, ago"). I just really want to know. I just want to get a ballpark time estimate of when this business entrepreneur gets cracking (and then make my own decision).

Did anyone else notice the bad font garble on the home page? Well, I can see misspellings deep inside that don't get fixed, but that's just negligent.

Hey, we got new font on the "phpBB: Critical Error" message. It's exciting now. That's a great change. The new is refreshing, like a summer's eve.

(douche ad line, that last; irony most definitely intended).

(Kinda ass-backwards way to "solve" a problem)

Today has been one of the worse days I have seen in awhile. Did he actually take one server away?
Yo Dave, you can't run this site off of an Atari system!!!

It's public information. Contact him, make noise, tell him your concerns. If we don't, we have no reason to complain, bla bla bla and all that other wolf noise.....

Don't know why, but your post inspired me to head on over to the sloganizer:

Spreads Straight from the Phpbb: Critical Error

First try.

Dear DAVE,

Sorry for all my posturing, ranting and pulling of the hair --- glad you came through for us and squealched the phpBB virus !!! You have saved many drowning men and may we forever be in your debt for allowing us to return to earth and know there is a place where we can forever stand corrected.

THX,

DD

So, is the lag and the phpBB error screen over? I've not gotten it in a while, although I haven't tried in the peak times: weekdays late afternoon when teachers are just about to go into class but are required to be in the school for no reason so they shoot the sheit on Dave's.

The phpBB error may be gone, but it sure seems like Dave's Server is incredibly slow for the past 3-4 days. Each time I load a page, either at home or work, it takes 20-30 seconds which is ridiculous.

Anyone else noticing this.
