Is the forum behaving for everyone today?

The past couple of days I've gone to war with the thousands of foreign bots, mostly from the far East, that were taking up resources on the server.

We've gone from having thousands of guests on the forum at any given time, right down to a much more likely figure

I'm hoping this should stabilise the performance of the forum from here on.

I blame Wavey.
 
Are Americans really aware of the World Cup about to start?

No, not really. I’d compare it to British people’s awareness of Superbowl Sunday; sports fans know about it, but it does not register much with the general populace.

Sort of guessed that would be the case, shame really as there's potentially a huge market there. I do wish the competition had just been in Mexico though tbh, they love their football and have put on a couple of great competitions.

Agreed. American Football is so dominant that even colleges can have stadiums of 75,000 capacity, which means that Soccer (as they call it) doesn’t get much of a look in, unfortunately.

The games played in Mexico should be a treat, though. :thumbup:
 
Are any Chrome browser users experiencing very long page load delays?

Bit slow for me tonight on firefox.
 
Working on something related to the thread thumbnails at the mo so they're going to be a bit weird for a bit
