It's not GFY, it's someones sig or image on a lame-ass server that slows everything down. But if you reload, it's fast because it's cached.

We've already implemented (a few days ago) the upload plan for users and more of them are taking advantage of it each day. Since then, as soon as we see that a button is loading slow we upload it to our server and show it from there. Also, when we notice a button coming up 404 we temporarily disable the button from showing until the owner corrects the problem. That of course only happens when the button is not being served from our end.Originally posted by Muff

Regarding Flash buttons, we've disabled their use in ******* specifically because of the loading times.
We're working on more ways to improve the speed, and honestly right now they take no more time to load than any other buttons do. Most of the time no one would have any idea the button is being served by us unless they held their mouse over the sig. At that point the button has already done its job and attracted a viewer.

If Lens feels that's necessary then it's fine by us. We go out of our way to help out the forums, and if that means we get banned at a few then so be it. The last thing we want to do is piss off the forum owners. Please read our FAQ though before jumping all over us. We do actually care. http://www.*******.com/faq.htmlOriginally posted by Pipecrew

******* is a new service, and it's beneficial to webmasters. I believe ******* is implementing a system to check to make sure signatures are loading properly.. and even possibly hosting buttons on their own servers..

******* has done great by me. Anyone who has a graphic button has the same problem, its not *******.
Im not seeing any load problems on my end.SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.Comment

I think it is a good program and will be even better when all of the buttons are on their servers. I wouldn't suggest banning it. (considering I use itOriginally posted by Lensman

On the rare occasions I do view and/or click sigs, it's because the person who has the sig is someone I know and/or respect in some way. Their referral is in some way valuable to me.
Why should some peckerhead who can't even be bothered posting on this board have his sig shown here anyways?<a href="http://www.adultcontent.co.uk">Adult Content UK - Great British Content</a>Comment

Novel idea: Maybe ******* should go offline voluntarily until they can ensure that their sigs don't make the board drag?
And by the way, I'm on 1MBPS DSL and this thread just took almost a minute to load. The threads without *******pers are fine.Last edited by Gutterboy; 01-23-2003, 11:45 AM.Comment

We are indeed seeing slowdowns right now, because of some type of server burp. See my Murphy's Law post above. Usually the server is blazing (SinHost) but of course today it's slowing down!Originally posted by Gutterboy

I didn't mean you can't list other sites in your sig. But that's my sig being shown where i post...not a random sig displaying someone else's referral code who's never ever been to GFY.

Wow! Well this is funny, especially considering my comments above.
As it turns out... I host ******* and I didn't even know it. It's been residing on one of my SinHost virtual servers... big surprise! I have a hard time keeping track of everything we host as the list of client sites now surpasses 6000. Between a traded password and crazy TGP traffic, that server quadrupled it's normal activity today which might have accounted for some performance degredation.
I've spoken with Jak and it appears that many of the banners in ******* are currently hosted by the advertisers, not by the service itself and therefore not on my network.
Personally, I think that ******* is an excellent concept and it would be a shame if it didn't continue to grow! In order to make it a more effective service I am going to work with Jak to remedy the situation.
******* will be moved to a dedicated server in the coming week and I will make sure that it is outfitted with the proper resources. In order for ******* to maintain a high level performance and quality I've requested that all of the advertising ultimately reside on my servers. I don't want ads hosted elsewhere to be misconstrued as a representation of my service.
I visit and post here on GFY as much as the most active users do. Accordingly, I'm going to make sure that ******* develops as a useful resource and never as a nuisance to the communities that we all visit and post to.
Cheers,
Brad
