Isn't it expensive for Mark (the owner of the site) to update the server? Anyway, I agree, it desperately needs to be updated.

Oh yes it's a pain in the ar*e, i tend to right long replies and when i have done so and click "Post Reply" then get the database error, has my post been sent? i dunno, and when i click go back on my browser my long post has gone and i have to right it all out again.
Ok you may say no one is interested in my long boring post's :sad: but i enjoy writing them so it is a big deal to me

It's a pain in the arse, I agree, but as far as I know the cash for this site comes out of Mark's pocket not your's.

Fair point. I know how frustrating that can be. Copy first?

Yes, and I do appreciate that they'd have to be paying for it. The idea of creating this site was to provide a service and create a community but unfortunately the forum just keeps crashing and giving the database error. If it was you, wouldn't you want to do anything you could to keep it running? Look at it this way, I know it's not as big but if half of Microsoft's servers started crashing every 5 minutes when they got a little bit busy, they'd soon loose business and money. Same goes here, member will get sick of it and leave.

Don't add me, just wanted to say, that it will cost Mark money to update it... and he may not want to spend his earned cash on a website server when he has a life tbh :3
It's not annoying really, most of you guys make it out worse than it is... it was fine before the BB season, it's just because there are so many of you!
If you write a long reply, just copy it before you press post, on the off chance it will go down Xx

Oh!:shocked:
Is Tibb ran by a regular person rather than a mega corporation ran by a Alan Sugar type?
Well this changes everything for me. But iv'e never been invited into a club before :sad:and i already did my badge thingy, its blue.....with the picture of a computer.......with little runny legs underneath it............to indicate a faster server.............
Seriously if it is like that then it's not such a big deal.
