READ THIS: ANOTHER NEW HOST TEST!!

Yes, the test board is back, as I'm trying to find another server that will give us better performance.
http://bbs2.stardestroyer.net or
https://megatron.enetexperience.com/~admin21 if you want to check it out. Last time, we experienced some odd 30-second delays in posting during the test which I foolishly chalked up to the mass deletions and other tests people were doing, but which turned out to be typical of that host. This time, please let me know how the torture test goes and we'll have to flag any extended posting delays (a few seconds is OK, 30 seconds is not).
As always, be careful you don't confuse the test board with the real one. Please note that the title in your web browser's titlebar should say "SD.Net TEST BBS" instead of "StarDestroyer.Net BBS", so this (in conjunction with the URL) should help you differentiate between the two.

WORKS FOR ME!!!!
If it can handle
this (ACHTUNG!! 56K VERBOTEN) it'll plow through anything no problem!!

I'm still getting delays on bbs2, even when posting small one-liner messages. Sometimes it comes through quickly; other times it's delayed up to 30 seconds.

That coulda been me shitting that uberweapon message (it eats a MEGABYTE of bandwidth in one shot!), and it took a little while (bout 15 seconds), but overall it's very responsive

Works fine for me, chief.

OK, only periodic delays. I don't know how it'll hold up to the full BBS, though...

I've seen less spam at a Quake 3 Excessive Mod game with 64 n00bz firing their rocketlaunchers all at once... ROFLMAO

I just realized something: I had Kazaa going the whole time! Good work Lord Wong!

Hmmm, the snapshot I'm using for the test board must have been made while you were banned. I'll go over and fix it.

That is the most unreal spam attack I have ever seen.

Seems to work fine but there was only one other person on the test board when I was messing around. It's anyone's guess how well it's going to scale when bogged down by the normal horde of 50+ users.

In terms of spam it isn't that bad; it doesn't put that much of a strain on your server AFAIK (since it's only a bunch of image links).
OTOH, I might try reposting all of Marina's fanfic

I got an idea, how about we preserve it for posterity? ROFLMAO!

I'm having some long load times, ten seconds at least, but it seems to be a problem on my end.

I can finish stealing the off topic forum at last…
Interesting, going through the first link I can post and edit just fine, but I always Get Invalid Session when attempting to delete or move anything. Going through the second one everything is fine

obviously since my server is much less then 56k I will not be taking part in this test again...
Unless I accidentally redirect myself like I did last time....

No, that abomination nearly crashed my computer.
