With the DHTML menu back up, it'll probably be beaten again tomorrow.

Tuesday lunchtime, a.k.a pain time for boards servers! I never did understand why Tuesday is the busiest day for boards.

I'm seeing big ping times to boards.ie, starting at the INEX. Don't know if it's related to the bursts of slowness.

Something else I'm seeing, which I've very occasionally seen when a page takes a long time to load: instead of displaying the page, I get a dialog prompting me to download showthread.php (or whatever page was going to be displayed). Generally cancelling the dialog and refreshing brings the page up normally.

Woah, half a million threads and six million posts and nearly one hundred thousand members. Those numbers really fly when you don't look at them often.

My old flatmate and I used to have entire conversations where you could only speak in Simpson quotes. How sad is that. I used to be able to recognise the episode from the way the family got to the sofa... Life, for Table 4!
