Does that mean that the forum will be more time up? (and less MySQL errors)

:)

It looks like a new feature. I too hope that it implies more uptime, but I doubt it. Like the IE banner, it's probably simply a warning.

It's been sporadically off and on the site.

I think it just means that its holiday time, well here in Uk it is and there are more of us around because of that?

How do you know that?

I know for a fact that it's not holiday time here, and the administrator of this forum is not British!

Where is Alex from? The great country of the US!

From what I remember the number of "People Online" was at the time lower than it is now...

dude yesterday was easter in case you hadn't noticed and I'm pretty sure easter is a holiday. but holiday has nothing to do with it.

also the high load isn't directly correlated w/ the number of people.

it means the db is using a lot of resources

Sorry!

I'm so happy that you haven't held anything against me!

Now, I'd like to play a little game with you. I'm going to do my Howie Mandel in front of you, and act as the Banker! I have an offer for you!

The offer is the chance to make me a moderator of your website!

So, I ask you, Alex Plank... Deal... or no deal?

It doesn't matter how I say anything that comes out of my mouth, whether Andrew O'Keefe or Howie Mandel said it first!

I guess Alex's response to me is, "No deal!"
