Site Lag?

After I click 'Post' on a reply, it takes more than a minute for it to process, and for the page to turn to the 'View post' 'Go to last visited forum' thing. My bandwidth just reset, and everything else is running fine, so I don't think it is my internet. Anybody else getting this?

Edit: Clicked 'Send' on a reply, went to the bathroom, then came back and watched a three minute video, and it still had not processed. I think it can rightfully be said that something has gone wrong. Perhaps it is a DDoS Attack? I can imagine a lot of people wanting to shut down a site named JosefVStalin.

2nd Edit: Submitting an edited post seems to be normal.

Yes, I am having some lag too.

Same... I am also having this issue occasionally... I wonder what the problem is.

There was a little lag earlier but none now or barely there

I'd assume it's because we've got people trying to come on from America to Iceland to Serbia to Finland to Portugal...

If this was just made up of people from one area things would be different.

I offten get error 500 when there is alot of activity (20 pluss users), the servers should be able to handele that but with maybe 5 or so people using DDOS ing programs... i don't know but im sure plenty of people arren't to pleased with Josefvstalin.com.

If there are lots of users even second click gets me Error 500.

Ya I've gotten some of those errors one time I couldnt' get back to the forum/site it was so bad.

I could have sworn I made a fucking post in this thread. Am I missing something or did the mods fuck it up?

I think you did too. I don't know though, I remember those experiments on people.

They would show them an accident at a crossing and ask them, "Is the red car the causer of the accident because they sped through the stop sign", the experimented person would usually say, "yes" when in reality, there was no stop sign.

Something like that. Anyway, it shows that if people don't know they usually believe whatever the person says. That's why people can fudge numbers and cook books so easilly.

I was basically telling people to stop mashing on the damn send button and accidently double post. Just because the site isn't redirecting you doesn't mean your post wasn't made.

Actually only half the time that's true.

You should hit it twice, the 2nd time it usually auto-redirects to that, "another post has been made" and you'll see your own post, exit out, and everything is sunshine and lollipops.

same here

It's Stalin's hosting acting up as the site get's bigger. He's going to have to upgrade or find a new host soon.
