Hmm that is pretty weird.
Still, at least we can access 'Poly at the moment. Around 5PM GMT the problems have been starting each day for me, getting progressively worse as more Americans come online.

Not sure what you meant.
If you visit the front page of the forum, you'll see the numbers of members and guests. Those are total numbers.

It's cruising now. Let's see if it stays that way.

I wish they'd put the avatars back. My location field makes no sense without my avatar.

I've noticed that when you get the server too busy page it tells you that preference is given to registered users, then proceeds to display your login ID and ask if you want to log out. Does this mean my login is no longer welcome here and I need to create a new one? 
I was so close to King...

Avatars come and go... I think most of the RoN n00bs are on only during normal peak usage hours, that seems to be when I have problems.

So, now, I can get on between 10 and noon, and 10pm to 10am.
That's 4pm GMT / 6pm GMT and 4am GMT / 4pm GMT, for international people who want to know when to get on so they can clog up every time.

Avatars will be gone for a while... hopefully, that will help some.

Permanently? Like, even when the load levels drop off a bit?

That will slow down the OT, people won't be able to scan for posts.
I don't think it will be permanent.

When we upgraded to Settler II, did the forums retain the same threshold for keeping/losing avatars? Not that I would want it taking on more now...

I suppose the current traffic is unusually high, and may subside a little in time. But if it does not are there contingency plans?

No avatars! I was just able to upload my crying babies pics about two weeks ago. I guess it's worth it to be able to use the forums.

And every time the best game of a genre is released, and we happen to be the largest (or second-largest) site covering it.
EDIT: Wait, you mean Zylka?

I propose we just remove all accounts from Utah.
It is the active people that are a problem.

I think all the people that joined recently for RoN should only be able to log on when the server is quiet.
