All day, it was real slow about 5 hours ago, still is real slow. I've gone to other websites and found the speed for loading to be the same as usual. Is there some server work going on?

The 500 server errors are getting more and more prevalent each day :cry:
JB was saying before he left for his travels that the ICMag Server's Memory and HDD were getting upgraded and there were some issues with the transferring of data across to the new HardDiskDrives, hope this has sorted out for the ICMag Server Crew.
Wish I could afford a LifeTime Membership to help out with the ongoing costs of this amazing place we all call our 2nd home.
puff puff pass

John was the tech guy whether he was the only one I'm not sure and I doubt he was on his lonesome, but what do I know, I just hope the issues are able to be sorted out, cause I'm fracked without my daily ICMag fix ;) :bigeye:

Hmmm....is John bourne our Tech Guy? If he is the IC Mag Tech Guy, that might be part of the problem. This is what Gypsy posted some days back:

"John has left us to go traveling indefinitely....so your best course of action at this time is to e-mail [email protected]"

In this thread:

If the main tech guy isn't available, could lead to a slower site.

I'm in no way affiliated with ICMAG or the crew running the show but heres my take on whats going on. I'm 100% sure it's nothing to do with John going intrepid.

500 errors typically mean the server has run out of slots. Each one of us requires a connection/slot. Server slots require hardware and hardware weither it be rented or owned requires money.

To be blunt.. This community is provided free of charge but it's growing like a weed. If we want these errors to go away during peak times we are going to have to start helping them out more with charity beans and subscriptions etc.

By slots, you mean memory ?

The last few weeks there have been less and less members and visitors on IC, the users and total numbers are located at the bottom of the Forum entry page https://www.icmag.com/ic/ so it is either not configured correctly by the tecchies or the hardware has been cut.

I started a thread about it a couple of weeks ago...

Kind of.. A server can only handle a certain amount of connections and memory/ram is a factor in this. I'm unsure if ICMAG manages the hardware themselves or if they use a third party hosting provider. The hardware's not cutting it regardless.

By the sounds of things they have made some upgrades.. I'll admit it's a pain. I recommend copy/pasting your post into a text editor before clicking submit reply for the mean time.. Until things become more reliable again.

All we can do as non-paying members of a free to use community is wait patiently to hear an official announcement.
