First sorry for the repeated posts Here can someone delete the posts I made after the *Delete Me...* one.

Only happened today but Ive had real problems opening pretty much any topic on the sites forums for the last 10-20 minutes. Dont know if anyone else has come across this yet.. might even be down to server load but I know its not my connection. Ive just run a speedtest and it reported 4mb/s (which is about the max I get). Thought Id give you guys a heads up.

Since a few days the forum is indeed really slow.. I personnally don't know at all why, all I know is that everyone is concerned and the issue may come from the hosting company, according to a message Gleedo wrote in the shoutbox... :/

Tbh I think its most likely something to do with the database server. All non-MySQL pages (such as the homepage) loaded quick enough as did the forum index. It was only when opening an unread topic or posting (ie not loading from cache) that the issues occured. I know when EVO has had stuff like this going on I also had problems connecting directly to the MySQL database around the same time.
**Sorry for the techno-babble for those who dont have a clue what I just said***

My recommendation is do a backup of the database asap to be on the safe side (if you have that access)
