Previous high was 163.

Due to the increase in traffic (the Best Buy story is getting out) the site was incredibly slow.
I took off the "Latest Message Board Posts" from the front page and that seemed to take the load off.
I'll try to get them back up in a way that doesn't affect the sites performance.

Thanks for your patience.

I never used it. I have the boards bookmarked directly, then I click "View posts since last visit"

wow, a completely random jump of use on a MONDAY evening. Do we have Best-buy and Buy.com to thank?

I tried that, WSB, but even directly links to the boards were dragging... I'm so spoiled by high speed I ended up giving up and waiting for the crush to die... hence me logging in now.

I was wondering what happened, I thought it was just me. I figured come to check CAG news section....good choice. It was very convenient to have the top posts up there, and definitely missed right now. Hope they come back up soon

Well I never used them so it doesn't bother me none.

Man, without the recent posts on the homepage, I don't feel like I know the latest on CAG anymore.

I usually just click the "enter the cag forums" link anyway, so I don't mind that it's gone.

Might be time to consider (or at the very least look into) getting a more powerful server, me thinks. It seems you've graduated from word of mouth to printed and online media exposure. This site's popularity is only going to grow larger.

The word of the day is: Proactive.

More likely we have Hardocp'ers to thank for that. And if this is posted on Fark, lets say that Monday's high isn't going to be very high any more.

Damn daphatty... that word is pissin me off right now. I just came back from the dentist to get a checkup and he was tellin me I should be 'proactive' in getting some expensive surgery done to take out my wisdom teeth. He kept on hassling me (probably for the best though) but I definitely don't have the money for that crap right now. Grr... not in a good mood... At least CAG loaded up in a timely manner so thats calming me down somewhat.

EDIT: What I'm doing now is just going to the forum index and shift-clicking on the newest post icon in each category. Its almost the same thing as using the 'latest message board posts' links.
