Like Ive mentioned before, it has nothing to do with bandwidth, we are fine with bandwidth, we need a server with more RAM as we have maxed out the RAM and Swap Memory.
Put it this way, its like running Quake 4 on a P2 with a fast internet connection. Sure you dont get lag (bandwidth is fine) but it just runs slow and shitty anyway because you dont have the right PC for the job (in this case we dont have enough RAM).
i'm pretty sure this post was preceded by a sigh. actually, i know all of this, i just wasn't being clear and/or all the people throwing "bandwidth" around confused me while i was typing my post.
basically, what i meant was, what's causing the server to be so slow, is it the forum activities, or the main site (news, interviews, reviews) that's causing it?
i was basically also gonna ask, if worst comes to worst, what would you put priority on - the forum or the site?
