Who are the other sites on that server? Do they have problems too?

i would list them but they will be blurred out, but i think they are on different servers. But they use the same layout, i know ImportNC has the exact same layout, and works everytime.. but than it has minimal advertisements on the forum.............

Maybe it is busy trying to fix the oil leak and it will be better after August.

[-S Double C-]

i dont know but i HATE THIS SITE because of that shit nearly everytime i get on it says it.

[Slow Motion]

Sever: Fixed.

I love IA and everything, its where i started, but from a business owner to another business owner, you are absolutely destroying your source of revenue and single handedly destroying your user base.

They recently asked me to renew my advertising on here, and i was like "are you kidding me? The site works maybe 20% of the time".

They said it had something to do with where the server was located and they were working on it and would get back to me.

This is going on like 5 months of this. Has anyone even made a post in the WL addressing the issue, letting us know whats going on? anything?

[MachNU]

I have to agree with Mike. Hell every thread I made in my section last night everytime I hit submit, I got a screw you back message. So finally started saving them in a word document and over the course of an hour manage to get them all submitted. Then from 8-10:30pm the site was only up for a grand total of 5 minutes. It seems that as of lately the server seems to be going down more and more often.

the plan is to move the site to a new server/host so it is in the works

It will take years for this to happen

i think this is way out of pauls hands by this point. I think he is just a go between for him and the NEW owners. The new owners as i heard were AN IT FIRM! How does an IT firm not fix an IT issue?

Paul is also really busy with his day job, so i doubt this is a high priority for him. Paul works like crazy, and he sold the site, i dont think this is his problem to fix, IMO of course.

Again i dont mean to sound harsh, but i hope the owners or whoever is running the site realizes how bad its getting

[BanginJimmy]

I've found myself doing less and less surfing on the site since the issues with the server started. Now I only spend a few minutes a day on here checking new posts in the politics section and occasionally checking the WL for anything that might be a fun read. I dont even both with the other sections anymore as it has become a bit of a hassle.

yesterday i waited about 15 minutes for the server to work and then 2 minutes later it said it was busy AGAIN

[AtifSajid]

The issue is the server itself. It has nothing to do with anythign else. The server is hosting tons of other sites that dont belong to us. We are in the process of moving the site and its not an overnight job. We should be good to go within a week or week and a half.

[AtifSajid]

Also the server is being hosted at a colo facilty that we do not have access to. This is the main reason we are moving the site so we can at least fix the problem. It was a buddy server and now it cant take the load that IA is putting on it.

Has nothing to do with the number of advertisements or banners. Please bare with me. We are trying to make it happen as fast as we can.

Yes i also have found myself not isiting this sit as offen because of the issues . it becomes to much of a hassle and people will find another site that works! now if i get the ( server is busy ) i just go straight to honda-tech .
