Site still slow

Weird thing is .."Birdland" played all the way through ..... I noticed the file was only just over 4mb ... could it be a buffer limit or something maybe?

Maybe. But that buffer would be in the browser or the O/S, not at Songcrafters. If you can find a song that consistently restarts at 2:12, try playing the same song in another browser. Then you'll know if it's the browser or the O/S. Also, post the link to the song here so I can try it in a few Linux browsers that use webkit (the same layout engine used by Safari).

I just played Greeny`s new awesome tune and it played it whole and his is a 5.7mb so that can`t be it.

I`ll look for others

Connection Problems
Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later.

Yes, that occasionally happens. When it does, the server sends me an email to notify me that there has been a problem with the database. It happens maybe a few times per week. I think it's just from too much traffic on the server, so the database can't respond quick enough and times out. The server we're on also has other Bluehost customers, so it's not necessarily our site that's causing the traffic burden. It could be one or more other Bluehost customers with all the traffic. Anyway, all we can do is grin and bear it. Luckily, it never lasts very long so it hasn't been a big problem. When it happens, just wait a little while and try again. Normally, it should be working again within 15 minutes or so.

Okay i`ve got some new complaints! 

For a while now on my laptop, my adobe crashes sometimes when i listen on a jukebox and even with the last couple flashplayer updates.

i changed my avatar a week ago i think now but when i look on my iphone, my old avatar is still on
there. Also when i checked comments on my phone today, everything on the homepage was totally
different than on my laptop homepage. I`m mainly talking the comments on the right side because that is all
that really moves.

Oh and damnit i still can`t listen to full songs on my phone!! I know,i know no worries

It's just my end, I know, but the internet as a whole seems very slow lately. I can rarely stream audio or video from a number of sites, here, YT, Spotify etc...

All them American spies listening to everything must slow down the traffic

There have been a few things going off on the tinterwebthingy over the last few days, there's been a bit of a time service attack, the DNS service of our hosting company has had a flake and was not responding that well.

If you change your avatar, flush your web cache and the new avatar will appear.  This isn't related to slow web response.

dont spill beer on your pc, laptop or tablet, it doesn't slow down yer internet, but it is a terrible waste of beer.
