 Posted: 23:00 - 20 Sep 2005  Post subject: A suggestion for reducing server load |
 |
|
Righto, a few times recently theres been the message "The server is currently busy. Please try again later" or sommat along those lines.
Well, on a few other forus I've been on theres been a 'quick-jump' drop down box at the bottom of the page. Like this:

Why would this reduce server load? Well, it would mean that peeps wouldnt have to go through the intermediate step of jumping to the forum index, which must use quite a bit of recources.
It would also be more convenient to surf the forums 
Any feedback Korn or Bendy? (You two seem to know the most about server-forum-load-witchcraft-stuff )

I know that on vbulletin the quick jump actually increases the server load.  |

Just learn the forum ID numbers, and type them in the URL. Same as quick jump.
39 = Off Topic
1 = General Bike Chat
20 = Funny
33 = Workshop
etc etc.
Like this one for Off Topic, where I'm going now!
