Still happening Sunday 8:15am. + other error messages.

PS there also appears to be 492 users on-line right now. There's about 13 and 479 'guests'. :hmmm:

They replied saying "its your fault"

I replied telling them that's a load of bollox and to look harder at the processes that are using the CPU

Is that right now? It says in the past 120 minutes to make the site look busy. Reduce that to as low as it goes for real numbers.

Correct it's over 120 mins. I don't have a dynamic figure, but I could reduce that. However we always have lots of bots, that's been the case since day 1

Getting hard to even browse now. Every other click is an error message.

Lol I know. I'm not sure what you want me to do, I've raised it with the Hosts. It's out of my hands. We have 2 choices,
1. We put up with it till they fix it
2. I disable the forum

That's all I can do lads.

If I look in a few different sections at the bottom I see up to 10 real users and on average 5 'guests' that doesn't seem enough to be 500 users on line. I've not gone through them all but can people look at the bottom of the page when they browse and see if any section has particularly high numbers of 'guests'? Maybe some topic is attracting bots and that topic can be deleted?

I'd be surprised if it was the number of users that is causing the problem - we've had four times more than the current number of users in the recent past:

It's far more likely to be memory or CPU shortage due to an issue at the hosting company.

As specified at the start, a rogue CPU process sitting at 100%.

Sadly that's their side to fix not mine.
