Spechel EDD nudes >1000
Chuck traced the performance issues we were having earlier to that thread. That's also why you're now seeing >1000.

Sorry but that is hilarious. Oddly enough he's carrying on in an ATF thread about the >1000 thing so maybe that is why.

Re: Spechel EDD nudes >1000
Yeah, the only thing I'm amused by is that AtF thread.
2+2 was unusable for hours because of this. The >1000 thing was implemented by Chuck to discourage future problems. |

Re: Spechel EDD nudes >1000
Ryan,
Honestly, I thought this whole thing was some kind of software glitch, so it's kind of funny to find out it is deliberate. Most active threads eclipse 1000 views pretty easily it seems, but I am not technical enough to understand why a bunch of people viewing a particular thread would crash the site as a whole. ">1000" seems about as useless as that column itself. If there is a way to just do away with it I wish you would. Who cares how many views a thread has? Just seems weird to me. |

Re: Spechel EDD nudes >1000
For it to be that bad I'm guessing someone was running a script to up the count. Chuck picked that thread out of the log and blocked the IP that was primarily responsible.
But yeah, we may as well get rid of that info if it stays capped at 1000. We'll see what happens. |

Re: Spechel EDD nudes >1000
Ryan,
"someone was running a script to up the count." I wish that "someone" was outed and banned, that is ridiculous. They probably wouldn't have done it had they known it would semi-crash 2+2 for several of its busiest hours but that's still something that seems borderline DOS. Now I wonder if EDD's investment in this lame argument is because he knew about that. Pretty likely actually, in which case he should be banned. |

Re: Spechel EDD nudes >1000
I think everybody had a suspicion that thread was the problem.
FWIW, the thread originally said "fluffpop nudes" and then in an attempt to curb the growing post count (before it was obviously automated) it changed it to "Dids nutes". That had no affect. Edd objected so I turned it to his nudes, he liked that. |

Re: Spechel EDD nudes >1000
Dids,
Fwiw, I think that the proper response (unless you're just not really a computers guy so didn't know this would likely cause a problem) would have been to just trash the thread. c |
