Hi Owner of the forums,

Did you switch to a new web hosting service? If so, it's not that great - it can get sluggish and oftentimes the entire website is inaccessible.

Or is it the software? Is it trying new things that's messing up accessing the forums?

Anyway, will pray for this website to be fixed. There are other Christian forums, but I like this one the most!

You can if you have been on this site for many years and know enough about the people that run the site.

The real question is-- what are they doing about the problem?

I noticed there are 4,300andso people currently online. Helloo000, everybody!! :D

I got this answer after asking how many people can be on a site before it crashes...

The number of people who can be on a site before it crashes depends on several factors. It is not solely about the number of concurrent users, but also the actions and behavior of those users. Factors such as server capacity, resource allocation, and website performance play a crucial role in determining site capacity and potential crashes.

That is somewhat accurate, but the real issue is not the 4000 users here, which most of them are search engines of some kind.
The issue wouldn't even be 10,000 users at the same time.

The real issue is that this site is sharing space with other websites who could have 4000-10,000 users each visiting them.
And on peak hours which is usually afternoon and evening/late evening EST, then the server crashes from overload.

Think of A server, which is a computer , as a landlord trying to make money by renting apartments.

A responsible landlord rents just an apartment with 3 rooms inside.
But a greedy landlord can rent out 3 rooms inside 1 apartment.

When you do this, you put an overload on the plumbing and electrical system when each tenant loads up their room with refrigerators, vacuums, space heaters other electronics and they all use the showers at the same time.
The electrical breakers will trip or the main water pipe will get blocked.

That’s what’s happening in the web, when a host (a person who sells space to others to host a site like this one ) overloads their servers by selling space to 100 customers on a server , instead of 10.
