  2. Our gif only content threads have a rule where all thumbs must be posted as a static thumbnail that does not play. Currently imagebam made a change where they no longer produce static thumbs. Therefore, please do not use imagebam, or any host, that provides live playing gifs in those specific threads. If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    I run a couple of vB forums, and was always wondering what the limits were on to how many people online it could hold without significant slowdown.

    I've got a dual-Xeon, 2GB ram. Of course, my max users so far is only just over 100.

    What type of hardware does this forum run on?

    Interesting. I almost bought a liscense for a VB board a while back. I always assumed you would host it at a dedicated server.

    Unless a dual-xeon is a server. In case you hadn't noticed, i'm one of phuns resident technophobes.

    Yah I was just interested in knowing what kind of CPU power / RAM this server was running on. As it's a pretty busy one with 3000+ users online simultaneously. I'm just trying to figure out how big my forums can safely grow on my server...
