I think DigitalPoint needs a sever upgrade to keep up with its growth. The forum has been slow for the past few months. Yesterday it took the server about 10 minutes just to make changes visible - like editing posts, sending private messages and starting new threads. Edit: Right now I've just started this thread and I can't even see it on the forum yet, see what I mean?
It happened sometimes because lots of Database. as Smyrl's answer in Past Thread Donate 100K and we can buy new ones. Equipment cost for these $85,043.84 USD. See here - http://www.digitalpoint.com/tools/donate.html
Now we are having lots of traffic here at DP forums sometimes so due to that DB works slow that time Until shawn buys a new server we have to use this one DON.
