It's not as if this'll last forever either. No use in leaving before it's had a chance to be resolved.
I think I'm a bit guilty there =/. I went a bit crazy with the Cookie Monster yesterday xD.

That's a question of whether or not DB has what is needed to go through with it. It's not as easy as just saying 'we need a new one.'

Actually, the chat room has nothing to do with the server load at all. Yes, it may slow down the server just a little bit, however the whole problem here is the current server that we're on right now. Bear in mind that we're on a shared server where there are approximately 180 accounts on there which are being hosted on the same server as FFF is on, so 75% of which are resold accounts. And on the other hand, FFF is definitely growing a lot each day with 1,000+ of unique visitors and due to high traffic. There goes the reasons why it's causing the server slow as a turtle. The forum is already big as it is and I think it's finally the time to get our own server (VPS) for FFF, which is gonna be a bit costy.
Anyhow, we shouldn't be getting any of those errors anymore once we're on the new server, hopefully.

While that is great to hear, I have to say that the chat put a huuuge load on the server. Each piece of data has to be requested and sent for every member. That is going to kill the server.
Anyway, that's irrelevant now if there's going to be a new server. Thanks for resolving this .
Oh, and get that back as the main Cookie Monster smilie please. Kthnxbai.
