Looks like we reached our monthly limit on the last day of the month! I'm not quite sure how, so i'm going to look into why so much bandwidth is being used. After all, it's all text and 90% of images are hosted places like photo bucket as are videos. :think:

I'm no Stu, i'm a Ray ;)

Ye i have no idea how we could have reached such a high bandwidth. I've made a couple of changes so will keep monitoring to see if that helps decrease the usage. We should be nowhere near out limit due pics and vids not being hosted on here. Main thing is we're back :)

Thankyou Ray! sorry for mixup

I thought Stu was incognito!

wonder if we should remove the ability to attach a file on posts?

lol no worries. Yes that could be a solution about attachments. I can't login to the back end of the site until i'm home, going to Ace Cafe after work so probably won't be able to do anything till tomorrow eveninig. I need to figure out what caused the high usage. Logically, every member would have had to have looked at every single page and attachment this month, over and over again (100's of times, deleting their temp files each time they viewed) in order to cause that much traffic. :think: :think: I'll need to hear some V8's rumble tonight to get the cogs working...

problem with attaching files is you use up lots of disk space, and still take the site down! :)

I've attached files few times, try to avoid it, but all my pics were on webshots, which has now become 'Smile', and bleedin' useless.. so may have to get a photobucket or something account.

You can call me Ray, Al, Deidre or whatever if you want... :thumbup:
