First off I think I got it fixed for now. Well as of last night. We are out growing the hosting we have now I think.
As you may noticed the last 3 or 4 days that DB has been running slow and then fast and then slow again and then fast again. And on and on. I have done alot of things to find out what was going on. I limited bots, looked at traffic, cleaned up alot of stuff from the hosting(files and databases) , updated addons for XF, and installed a new theme. Today the forum has been going very well for me and have not ran into the 3 minute loads. I am not sure how much longer DB will be able to stay on this hosting. I am thinking about moving it to my other hosting where the server isn't as limited as the one it is on. Setting up Cloudflare as well.
Next I did a new theme for DB. Really all I did was take the old theme and kind of freshing it up abit. Since everyone seem to like the older theme, I didn't want to change it to much. Not sure when I will release this to everyone yet.
Next I wanted to say something about Paid Offers. I do have some more coming out, but wanted the ones running get finished up. Only have 1 left to finish. I have some coming for Off Topicz, Peak Forum, DebateHQ, and Telly Addicts to start with. I will tell you that it took to long to get the 1st round of Paid Offers done. I am a little disappointed about it and the fact we had a few user sign up for them and not do anything. I know it may take a few to get it right. I am changing a few things. New DB members need to have 5 posts to be approved for them. Approving everyone for the paid offers. So if I need 10 members for a paid offer and I approve 20 members for it, the first 10 that are done and submitted will be the ones paid. Starting dates are the day that the paid offer is posted from now on too. It isn't when you get approved.
New Feature:
I have added a draft system to the forum. The forum had a draft built in. This is like the draft system plus I guess you could call it. I amd thinking about doing a how to video on this.
Description :
I guess that will be it for now. Sorry about the slowness the last few days.
