BLF Problems

Thanks guys! Sad to see that many others are affected but at the same time -- I'm glad that it's not just me. Maybe Mr. Admin has to do a bit of tweaking because BLF has more members now and has more traffic than ever before.

In my experience, BLF goes down even when there is very little traffic on the site. Luckily it doesn't usually go down for very long, but it's still annoying when it does.

It happens to me too, but I don't think it is the increased traffic here, but, rather, hackers from the other place. Well, I'm pretty sure it is Greta's fault.

Ive had various errors lately. From too many connections thing to just being down.

Me to not so much slow but I get the error message and I no longer get emails for my PMs which was a really nice feature.

I get this appear after nearly every post I make.

Doesn't appear to interrupt with normal activity though.

The same with me, I don't know what happend to BLF recently?

I get the Drupal error too. I just wait a few minutes then come back and its fine.

Me too!

It's been real slow and the Drupal fail happens usually once a day for me. Something is definitely wrong.

FYI don"t knpw if it is connected but I have Ghostery (firefox add on) that tells me there is a "tracker" on this page. The other forum shows no tracker. Also I do not think anyone involved with this site is tracking. Ghostery blocks these trackers and I am not really having issues. Hmmm. IDK Outside tracker maybe?

Hi guys,
Thanks for reporting this. Basically the issue has to do with the shared mySQL server being throttled. I can setup a local mySQL server that won’t have this limitation, but it’s a rather involved process and I’ve been putting it off. I hope to get to it soon.
As for the repeated error message after posting, it’s fixed now.
The thing about “tracking” has absolutely nothing to do with tracking or spying on users, although now that you mention it I see that it’s definitely a misnomer. It’s just a Drupal term for the mechanism of seeing which posts are current and which user made them.
Thanks to all our loyal users who are bringing the site down. :wink: I’ll work on it soon.
Take care, have fun.

Thanks, Boss!

Thanks Mr. Admin!

Keep up the good work, sb!

A good problem to have . . .
