Just wanted to let you all know that I am doing my best to be a voice of urgency on your issues. For now the step I have taken is to lease a new dedicated server at a new facility that has support experienced in dealing with large, active forums. I hope that this move with solve many of the accessibility issues people are experiencing. The new server will have 3x the amount of RAM the current server has, Specktra is a database intensive site. The additional RAM means that the site will be faster hopefully addressing the complaints of slow loads.
As far as the refresh and PM issue goes, we are still working diligently to solve it. As before, volunteers willing to change their account password to something generic and send a detailed explanation of the specific issues they have should send a PM to Adam via the technical admin account.
I hope to have this all sorted out within the next few days. There may be a few hours of downtime as we move everything to the new server early AM on Monday.
I'm sorry this has been such a nightmare, it's breaking my heart. I just want to get everything worked out and the site functioning to the previous level of comfort and stability Specktra provided before.
