    I would like to see an option on how many posts are displayed per page. I have DSL and I like to get as much as possible in one page, but when I was on dial-up, I kept things (if I had the option) to about 15 posts per page.

    good idea! & raise the default coz dis is only html..no graphics..more post=more participation..if not, ppl will forget 2 check some of the post..

    actually, the admin's can't give us the option to choose. it simply doesn't exist. there's only 1 setting that can be chosen by the admin. and it's php, not html :p
    :whistle:

    That sucks. It would be really nice if we could choose. Beople with high-speed internet could set it higher and beople with dial-up could set it lower. Both parties win.

    I reduced from the previous, 50 topics per page, for the same reason. But I reduced to 15 only because I don't want people digging up old threads, encouraging people to post on new threads. And not because of BW, slow loading issue. It's back to default, 20.

    chai, are you going to upgrade to phpBB 2.05? it can help many dialup users that get invalid_session due to their dialup connection disconnecting

    The forum is getting slower. Do you feel it? It's fast on other forum but not for ARP anymore. Hmm... :think:

    yalar, now that you say it, i think i feel it too. at first i thought it was my connection, but if another fella also has the problem, i think it's the forum

    Yup... when I click a link, the connection just stopped for a few seconds before it asks from the server. It used to ask straightaway. :doh:

    And now ARP's forum is the slowest among the forums that I visit. It used to be the fastest. Hmm... :think:

    Dash.. sorry about that. We thought it was our own bad connections so we didn't check it out. Turns out to be some IIS problem. Heh...

    Peaz just restarted IIS so everything should be back to normal now! Over here, it's damn fast! :mrgreen:

    Good job Peaz and Adrian!!! Woohoo... :dance: :clap: :clap: :clap:

    Btw, how do you get access to the IIS and everything else on the server? You can't go to US physically can you? :think:
