....LAUNCH NIGHT OF CBB8! And Also on The final of cbb8 and the launch of bb12 night.
It'll be like when it happened during bb10 , i think norins eviction?

[Beastie]

Probably. Lol. I used to love the raids of members that came on during BB.

[Josy]

What a positive attitude you have.............

[joeysteele]

no, it won't. It will cope fine.

[12bigbrother12]

I think it will crash too

In a way, I hope the whole internet crashes so we can enjoy the show without interruption The interwebz can come back just as live feed starts immediately after launch

Digital Spy used to crash EVERY eviction night

[Stacey.]

I don't actually think it will.

[Kerry]

Maybe it will, like most sites under pressure. Even C4 used to crash every single year. Infact it's one of the slowest sites ever (C4) but....... about here....

I moan, I know, but be patient. It comes back. It's half the fun. Moaning about it being a slow bugger sometimes

[Jordan.]

I think it'll be okay, it was fine during BB11 final / UBB Launch.

Its never gets as busy on here as it used to be during BB10.

I'm gonna guess not as many people bothered with that though.


I kind of hope it does crash. I don't know why. I know I'll end up on here during the show when I should just actually be watching it.

Despite a dozen or so servers powering it plus a CDN, DS crashes every eviction night like clockwork (but then it does have the busiest BB forum you will ever come across, even during the dead of night threads rarely stay on the front page for more than a minute or two), features like PMing and search regularly have to be completely disabled for days on end to keep it running efficiently, even for posters who, like the general public, hate the show, something it rarely ever does for other reality shows even during finales as despite the much larger viewership of those others shows and not actually being a BB site, BB tends to be more popular with it's posters.

I don't think it's that.

During BB10 the forum was running on an old server, it was a disgrace.
It would crash every eviction, and then eventually when the great Marcus Akin was evicted and his hundreds upon hundreds of fans came to the site to express their anger, the site just crashed for good and then Mark decided to just update it to the newer server that we're on now, and then it was fine during CBB7 and BB11.

I think we all owe alot to Marcus Akin really.

BB11 was more big than BB10 though..?

I agree though, it means we'll all switch over to Live Feed on E4 and stuff and rather than typing and trying to look at the screen, we can concentrate on LF lol and then the site will probably work again at about 11ish.

[Patrick]

LOL at me saying E4.

Force of habbit.

[Jords]

It always crashes during BB - launches, finales, evictions, ya doomed!

[JamesWBB]

I've never been on this forum on a launch night, but Digital Spy sometimes crashes or goes really slow.
