if you are calm and collected when all about you are going berserk - you've missed something important!

I didn't miss live chat last night & I told everyone that they could just hammer the cafe if they wanted to.
I did another all nighter & guess what.... the forum didn't fall to bits.
Mike tells me allsorts of technical stuff... like.... our live chat creates between 3 -5 million hits per month on the server... partly because it refreshes every 3 seconds.
We've got umpteen thousand views per month because we've got loads of outsiders just giving us the once over.
We've come to the point where we have to make some choices & this may be a financial burden .... can we afford a dedicated server? ..... even then, we'd be relying on Mike to completely write a blank page with all the required security & protocols.... I don't think I could put those demands on his time.
I don't know how things are going to pan out, but I do know that I'm not going to hurt my son just for my benefit .... I'll find the button & turn the whole damn thing off first.
I just own the forum .... you guys make it great thanks.

Somebody called me 'pretentious' the other day.

p.s. page loading is dead slow again tonight, but that could just be the usual swamped broadband, not the server we're presently using.

I am about to enable it again.
How has the website performed with that switched off?

- has anyone found my marbles?
As for dedicated server, I think that might be a bit OTT (unless you plan to rent out a bit of space to help pay for it)
What you really need is a reliable host.
Are you still with hostgator?
Me and the missus (and a couple of friends) use Krystal, been with them for almost 6 years.
Well worth considering... And they are totally UK based.
AND I have to echo what the others have said... Take your time, family must always come first.
