If you are having problems with memory issues, then I suggest upgrading hardware. It is 2008.
:eek:
yea...i agree but ouch lolQuote:

Steiney is right.
lol
It's not a simple matter of "just get better hardware" -- we have great hardware and I think it's maxxed out at this point in terms of RAM anyway.
But, that is a thought:
Now, if someone wants to send me oh, about $7000 or so for hardware and my time to set it up, and then pay a $50 monthly membership fee, I will HAPPILY, GLEEFULLY make a machine that JUST hosts a vBulletin so they can sit in a corner and post "poop poop poop" over and over in a thread to get their post count up.
I await the check. If it does not bounce, I will start Post Count Mogul.

By the way, in terms of BMO forums... You ought to think about phpBB. It's open source (and free for commercial use). Heck, you could make each league owner one of the administrators of their own forum that way.
Ohms: I totally agree. Splitting the board into 2 boards is something I think we should definitely attempt this summer...probably in July. I just have to do some hardware groundwork for that before it can happen.Quote:

Re: phpBB. My issue with phpBB is hackability. It was a while ago, and things have probably improved now, but when I was subscribed to Bugtraq, there was a post a week about major security issues with phpBB. And, splitting the board into two vBs is (theoretically) less complicated than splitting it into a vB and a phpBB.

Well, I've heard claims about phpBB3 security being better than vB's recently, but that's mostly marketing speak probably. You're probably right though that it would be a big headache supporting two separate software packages.
ROFL....now that was funny! Probably someone will start a thread like that this week too!Quote:

Dee, can I pay you $5 to reset peoples' post counts? :D
My offer for a life saving post transplant still stands.
Rick... I read about how certain people try to sell their kidneys on eBay since there are people out there in need of them that would purchase it. I bet if they approved something like post count transplants and you offered a certain number of your posts on eBay, boomboom would pay whatever price you offered for them.
Sounds like more fodder for AS THE POSTS TURN
Can't wait for the next episodeQuote:
