    Re: Site issues today

    I am a server and system software person; I don't know anything about VBulletin. But unless guest users are important, I think that configuring VBulletin to reject guest user connection attempts would be a lasting solution to the performance problems. I figure that sooner or later Tom or QT will read this thread. I think that both of them understand VBulletin.

    Brian - thanks for weighing in. We have an ongoing thread in the private Moderators subforum where we have been working through diagnostic questions and possible remedial actions.

    I, for one, would be fine with rejecting guest user connections.

    I think that be "the sub club".

    Right now (9:40pm US Eastern time) there are almost 20,000 guest users connected, and as a result the server is very slow.
