A few server issues, But hopefully all sorted - loads of new member on the corn and 20,000 people in one day (just the corn).12,000 on here - 300 requests in one minute is what started it all off.

If it goes down again, please don't refresh, give it 10-20 minutes an try again

thanks for your patience!

misinterpretation of the stats, Sorry those are page loads (and just for the normal site not the forums) the 300 requests in one minute was for the corn forum, then it got worse as people refreshed.

Still it's good news not bad, we'll be moving to a more spacious server by next month and changing the type of database, so this should stop it happening again!

We are supposed to be getting google ads on the reptilian site, but if we can we are trying to keep the existing sites advert free if we can.

We like them better that way, but need to recoup some server costs when we switch to the new one, so the reptilian has no chance of escaping.
