Many of you would have noticed the site error messages (see below) you may have received over the past couple of days. I have been in contact with our host providers who claim that it is a result of the message boards. Not necessarily the new forum software but as a result of some of the extra features that in laymans terms cause a heavy load on the system. I therefore have disabled some of the non essential extras such as the recent topics and posts that was on the side bar of the forum index list as well as some other features such as who is currently browsing topics. This appears to have helped quite a bit as I am not receiving those messages as much. Whilst some of those features were cool they are certainly not essential and the main part of the forums are the content and being able to use the site.

All I ask is that you be patient and if you receive the "Service is Temporarily Unavailable" page just hit refresh and you will be taken back to the page you were on. I know it is annoying at times but keep me posted if you continue to receive it all the time. It will happen now and again but hopefully the changes I have made have done the trick and it will not happen as frequently.

Cheers,

Andy

    Firstly sorry for the extensive workload you are doing.Secondly many thanks for doing so. I seem to be getting as many as before. It is irriating however we can put up for it. On my current thread I have just responded to a member and called him a jerk. I meant it- I just hope it is acceptable because I do not want to create or gain more problems

    regards

    That's strange because I'm not receiving them anymore and I've been extensively testing the system out. Try logging out and then logging back in. Not sure if that will even do anything but it can't hurt. If you know how to clean out your browser's cache then do that and see if that helps.

    Is anyone else still receiving them? Please let me know as I have no other way to know of issues if you don't let me know.

    Not that it is causing any any problem necessarily, but why are you still running Apache 1? If you upgraded the message board software, why didn't you upgrade Apache?

    Wednesday and Thursday I was getting them all day but since Friday it's been smooth sailing. Not getting the error messages anymore. Great job. Love the new look.

    What a site- Although a few hickups now and then, I want to congratulate all whom have been involved in this new facade of our website. However, it is slightly dissapointing that the Black is a must- the Blue of our new guernsey wiould have been ideal.

    Andy - WELL DONE and thank you all.

    Looks like the hiccups are here to stay as the shared server we are currently housed on is pretty crap.

    Black??? Looks like a dark navy blue to me.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?
