All non-essential functions disabled

I agree about thread ratings. IMO, they should be disabled. They serve no real use, and if they put more strain on the server....

And I have found that I'm doing fine without sigs and avatars, though I definitely agree with what Green Knight said; avatars do help a lot in recognizing people. But I can live without them.

w00t!

well, looks like our avatars & .sigs are back -- WOO-HOO!!!

 

[reapersaurus]

i agree - the sigs, especially, I use to navigate threads.
I'm quite glad they're back.

Search and email notices gets my vote to be on! But I have never had a problem with speed, that's probably because when I am online alot of you are in bed asleep

Search

Any idea when search will be back? I miss it

The forum jump list is back at the bottom of pages! Yay!

Hope it doesn't slow things down. I find it very convenient for navigating the various forums.

Off to Story Hour . . .

Did you guys remove the Forum Jump button again? I hate taking the long route (i.e., always going back to the main menu).

I did. Remember when we had a week with no problems at all? Things got bad again after I turned the jump-to button back on. I thought I'd turn it off again and see if it made a difference.

Believe me, I love the jump-to button. If it doesn't make a difference one way or another, we'll switch it back on.

I'm surfing the site at just after noon, central time, and things are moving very nicely indeed. If the forum jump is that much of a bandwidth waster, leave it off! Things are great right now!
