Smithcraft Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Things like the "Thanks" button were also part of the reason the site slowed down so much, all these things were third party hacks. I guess that answers my the other issue I thought I was having. 1994 Legacy MI 2008 Legacy GT specB 2023 Crosstrek Limited Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitexc Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Yup. I though I was having a few issues that arise through Tapatalk from time to time but it appears they are site related. Sent from my SM-G996U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xt2005bonbon Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 . Overall this site is about 1/10th of the traffic it was 5 years ago. That's a little sad to be honest, but what can you expect. There's no true legacy gt anymore IMO, so it's not helping. I remember when I joined, it was pretty busy. Thanks Tide for keeping this thing alive.

Pleides Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Then we'll have plenty of new problems. SC Modern IP board forums are so much nicer to use than this old place, I won't miss it. The LinusTechTips forum is an old favorite of mine and the notification system and search system are so much better on their own that I'll take any problems that come along the way.

Guest Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 I honestly don't mind this old school format. Rennlist is similar and I feel like "at home" there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Participating in FB groups is like pissing words in the wind. You never can find anything there, even if you saw it a moment ago and know what to look for. It's such ******* waste of time. I refuse to participate in that shit. This ******* evil company hopefully will go under sooner or later. That flip-flop hoody wearing moron fucked when he came up with the metaverse nonsense. Good riddance you ******* dickhead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infosecdad Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 Was one of the advantages of having a super slow site that the spammers would give up? Seeing a large glut of new spam posts in the last few days. That said, the site is moving a good bit faster since the cleanup, thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LegGTLT Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 To be 100% clear though, I'm not nearly as desperate to feel loved that I need email notifications. That's just creepy.

LegGTLT Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 All photos should be converted into MS Paint to save space. Especially since most pictures are of 10+ year old cars now.

Tide Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 I can look into emails, if that seems to be an issue, but I'm receiving them fine in both test accounts and admin accounts. Feel free to PM me details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pleides Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 Are these fast to load vs. this 'old school' forum? IP Board is very fast. Even if the site isn't to your taste, just make an account on linustechtips.com and navigate around for a good example of a well-fleshed out IP board design. Collated notifications, status updates on a personal page, way better personal page customization, better organization of threads with new posts given a front page sidebar, moderating staff as a sidebar on the main page, better sharing integration with other sites, better private messages, reactions to posts without hacky third-party integration as mentioned before, better picture uploading, etc, etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
