Forum Speed Updates

So I have been doing a few tweaks to the forum as of late (actually, a whole heap of updates)...and my prime focus has been to speed up the site and focus on user experience.



Of course I want the latest plugins and features for the site, but at the end of the day, I want the browsing speed to be a primary focus because add-ons and plugins are used less frequently at the end of the day in comparison to fast experience.



With that said, I have added memcached server for quicker page loading, removed an auto link plugin for initial time to first byte, added a content distribution network, increased time of cache, and about 30 other tweaks to speed up the site. I have noticed a dramatic improvement as of today since all tweaks have been completed.



How has everyone else's experience been today (and tomorrow and thus far) since the finalization of the upgrades / tweaks? I hope everything is moving much faster now for everyone. Please let me know your positive and negative feedback...thank you!

That happened to me yesterday. The wife said, let's go to IKEA buy the bed frame we need. I said, OK. After checking the bedframe, we also had to check some rugs for the bathroom, a lamp for the living room and some other things that lasted for a couple of hours... :eek:



Have you ever been ambushed like this? Or are you the ambusher? :mad:

How were You In School?

In school, I was kind of a floater. As we moved from grade to grade/year to year, our grades would change and our sets as far as a capabilities in certain subjects would also change. So you would get to talk to people in your grade that you otherwise would not have.



I noticed that most people stayed with the same clique throughout their entire high school career. But I didn't. I constantly moved from clique to clique. I moved from the popular kids, to the geeks, to the smart kids, to the punk rocker type kids, to the downright unpopular kids lol. It was fun, I must say. Some of my previous cliques kind of resented me for breaking social norms, but that is one of the main reasons that I chose to incarnate here on Earth - to smash the lines that many are afraid to even consider colouring outside of ;)



How were you in school? Which clique, if any did you fit into?
