well, I see that I wasn't wrong at all bacause I realized that ms is working quite slow, but it depends of the conection too, because in my house I have a slow conection which is annoying sometimes, now I'm navigating with a fast conection, which is much better

Same happens to me
When i was with a particular ISP , the site was so slow that i could rarely go from page to page. Change to other ISP and now the speed is ok.
I had noticed that MSv3 needes countinuos data from the server and this may effect the speed.

MS works very slow here too. I use to have a fast connection, but it's only MS that goes so slow, from the moment it was renewed...

It's simply a problem of traffic and bandwith capacity...

Even if we tried to remove all the big stuff that were one of the reason of the database-overshit in the past, it seems that too many people come here and then the site is slow...

The unique solution is to find real sponsors that will help us to pay a big powerful connection. Right now it's just impossible for us, we don't win money with MS and cannot give a lot of ? to pay a good connection...

@Jeff

But it is strange . I mean with 14,000 members , the most metal information, the best metal forums of all and there is no one to sponsor this.

You're right, we should find good sponsors... the problem is that the musical partners are a bit greedy nowadays...

Pray with me maybe that we will find someone one day


And btw, even with 14 000 Members the forum is not the principal problem of the traffic...

We have in general something between 400 000 - 500 000 unique visits each month (that's the reason of the slow shit)?

That's not hits - that's unique visits. As for hits, we get over 14.000.000 of those monthly.

We are inconveniently international. Most companies are local, and are interested in strictly local customers. We are limited to big international corporations, like Google or Amazon - but you can't really earn much with them.

And local companies that work international? For example a transport company or an international toys factory with their headquarter in Talinn (just giving an example)? Maybe it's more easy to make contacts then, with the right persons, because it's in your area...

Why would a transport company or a toy factory be interested in Metal Storm?
The company has to be metal-related or at least music-related to be interested in us, and there are not many international companies like that, let alone operating from Estonia...

Yeah, but that was just an example And I don't think such a company should be interested in MS, but in making publicity, and metalheads don't use less transport companies or toy factories (for the children ) than other people I think (FOR EXAMPLE )

You may improve the loading time of forum pages by changing the settings in your profile (see "Settings" on top).

There you'll find some options to disable signatures, and also avatars, etc. when browsing. That won't really fix the problem, but that may help a little bit.

it depends...
Can be the page code: including what's the dastabase manager: MySQL, postgree, and the staff should see the code and mainly the script of connection to database, it's important to emphansize that's the loading of pictures may take a "long" time if be it can be the hosting service

Also can be the speed connection of user or site's member

Also can be the host: I don't know what's the capacity of machines of the hosting service -> maybe it's the problem

but I strongly believe that's the host speed but I'm not speaking about data tranmission speed but I'm the machines I don't know nothing about the machines, also can be the database performance maybe it's interisting to put a powerful database manager, or following this thread the problem it's how the hosting service are managing the database performance, and like us are seeing the number of members are raising... maybe on a far future they must to use a database like DB2(I'm fucking w/ you). But I believe that the problem it's the database on host service, but like I said before the number of members are raising, and so some databases isn't fast w/ a lot of records.

metalstorm runs pretty fast here, but it slows down abnormally sometimes, but after a few days it becomes normal again. Threads open up slower in such conditions.
I (and probably all metalstormers) hope that the site will get a sponser soon.

How could be it fixed?

Well you can buy for the MS server (if its physical) a 10Gbps Gigabit Ethernet card, and buy a 1Gbps for me... if you don't know what the hell is that, then it must be expensive, if you know what is that, then you know its expensive
Use a navigator that lets you switch between no image or image mode, is not spamming, but I do recommend Opera for that, see it by yourself:

Sometimes I get this error thing saying that internet explorer cannot open so and so page. Operation Aborted.

Does this have anything to do with the site or is it just my crappy school computers?

well i really think it's not just an ethernet card problem, sucky server in general... that's pretty unfair though this is a great site to be that laggy, anyway I hope some day we all be will be able to connect properly

P.D: I use mozilla and really runs smooth
