forums been a bit slow when i log on at gf's other than that though. no trouble

Same thing here, but it seems sporadic.

Anyone besides me still getting "500 Internal Server Error" when they do active users?

I'm getting it also right now.

someone implement the Shabba-protocol!! quick

i can look at it just fine.

Me too, but last night it didn't work for me.

The site was down for me for several hours.

For a number of reasons I think this is DB related:
- Forum was up for me all the time except for posting / replying.
- Meantime other people could post.
- Forum SW (Snitz, php) should work the same for all memebers.
- But everyone also goes thru the MySQL DB and imo that's where the differences in "site experience" come from.

We used to have a well qualified DB guy but he has disappeared to nowhere app. [scratch]

So anybody got experience Microsuck SQL?

fwiw, I do, but not for forum apps.

MySQL is different than Microsoft SQL. MySQL sucks imo. Microsoft stole the database interface language's name when it came out with Microsoft SQL. we mainly deal with Microsoft SQL with statements generated in VB6 at work to keep track of the nuclear fuel rods and our sister plant in Washington state uses Oracle with stored procedures [puke]
