I am having the same speed problem, and I JUST upgraded to 25K. My members are all complaining about speed, and the newest members are not getting to join, not getting onto the site, and the forum is not updated with the newest members.

HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!

please don't double post.. you have left the same message now in 3 topics

I answered you about the 25k upgrade in another post so will deal with the other issues now.
I need to know what you mean by not getting to join, not getting onto site, etc. Your forum IS up and running btw and the speed issue has been resolved , hopefully for the long term.. but for now I need a better idea of what you are talking about. Do you have them set to get a verification email?

deleted 3rd topic

Alrighty.. I just tried to register at your site.
I got an email, along with my username and password and telling me the following:

Before you can login and start using the forum, your request will be reviewed and approved. When this happens, you will receive another email from this address.

SO... you have it set to Member Approval and you need to activate them.

edit:
Member Approval
This option will make it so all new members registering to your forum will need to be approved by the admin before they become members.

1. I did not post three times today. Thank you. I still have the speed problem after upgrading to 25K, so that is not changing. The memory is better because pictures can now be uploaded.
2. New members are emailing me telling me that they are BANNED, when they are not. One older member is saying she is banned when she is not.
3. People are still complaining about the speed and posting time is very slow.
4. New members are approved and sent emails automatically, and they cannot sign in to the forum.
EXAMPLE: A new member that was approved last night sent this to me today:
"Thanks for checking, but I still can't get into the board. Still saying banned.. thanks anyway."
5. All members are approved, and they are activated and sent automatic emails.......that has worked up until the last few days.
I do not want to lose members, and would like to find out why this is happening.

I answered the question about the 25K upgrade in THIS thread:

It will not tell you that you are banned, if you are not verified. There is a difference. Can you get them to email you a screenshot of exactly what they are seeing so that you can make sure of what exactly is going on?

3. People are still complaining about the speed and posting time is very slow.

as mentioned earlier in this thread we (the Mods) have no control over the servers so I cannot help with this and can only tell you that the forums that were effected are running again and (from my end at least) are not running slowly.

EXAMPLE: A new member that was approved last night sent this to me today:
"Thanks for checking, but I still can't get into the board. Still saying banned.. thanks anyway."

I signed up at your forum less then 10 minutes ago.
I recieved an automated mail telling me that I would be approved and another email sent letting me know.
I just receieved a second email asking me to confirm my email address and to tell you how I found out about the forum, that my access would be verified after receiving this. I replied.. waiting for another email. I cannot check it out until that arrives and even then I can only tell you what I see, and what happens on my end. Screenshots from the members who are having trouble would be a HUGE help so we know for sure exactly what is happening to them.

No.. that is separate.

Got the verification email.. logged into your forum, as you can see. So.. humm.. not sure what is happening with them other then they may be clicking on the link the third email sends telling them that they can change thier
password etc after logging in.

That link is for their profile and if they click on it they WILL get an error message as its trying to go to their profile and they are not yet logged in.

See if you can get more information from all it has happened to. Get them to tell you exactly, step by step, what happens to them, what error messages they get and yes persuade screenshots.

Sheesh.. no wonder members are having a heard time at that site. They have to write a book just to join...

piscesgm: you need to understand that the mods here are just that -- mods of THIS forum, and have NO control over SMF's servers. Only he does. Downtime is going to occur from time to time. Please remember that these forums are FREE for us, and as soon as SMF fixes the issue, it will be fixed. You have to have a little patience.

What you did was upgrade your attachment space. That has no affect on your ads. If you want ad free impressions, you have to buy those seperately.

Kimmie: Not quite. Thank you.

Hello, double posting doesn't matter if the second post is constructive and adds onto the first post. Three posts in 3 topics isn't very constructive.

But, I guess a lot of us with forums are in a little bit of a tight situation that can cause a lot of problems for forums that are always on the move.

Truthfully, I refuse to allow this topic to be locked. The information posted in it could be very useful when SMF For Free comes online and tries to fix everything.

But for now, let's try to keep discussion constructive and on topic. The best we can all do for now is be patient. I hate editing bits out of posts but if it'll keep the peace it might be the best way.

I have 2 sites on server 2 and both are running that slow that using them is impossible .I am getting complaints from members on both sites and prospective new members are logging off after getting fed up with waiting for the sites to load . This has been going on now for nearly a week with it happening every day for at least a couple of hours , but its the worst couple of hours it could be as it is normally the most active then .
