zB - Now with less lag!

[Justananomaly]

Zuneboards,

You may have noticed some decreased lag around areas of the site. This is because we (and by that I mean our corporate overlords) did some site maintenance and disabled some things we have not utilized in a very long time. This means that everything should load noticeably faster now.

We are also soon to be migrated over to a new server soon owned by CrowdGather, which should also improve the speed of the site.

Also in the near future we may be being upgraded to vB4.0 and with it, a new and improved shoutbox! Don't worry, we'll be testing the new shoutbox heavily to ensure it meets our demands!

Thank you, and I hope you like!

All sounds nice.

Thanks CG Admin and CG in general!

Mmmmm, sounds nice.

Why thank you overlords.
zb is the same speed for me, but I blame my internet.

It seems to be much faster now.

We cut out modules we haven't utilized in years.

Mostly the Shoutcast display which hasn't been used since 2006.
The Xbox stuff which has been broken since 2008ish.
The zB$/Zunecentive stuff which we havn't used since 2008.
A secondary Youtube embedding module that we didn't need...

A few other small things that were cluttering the site up and slowing it down.

The new Shoutbox is by the same people that make our current shoutbox, it's just a MUCH updated version of it and we can migrate all settings over instantly if we switch to it.

Still seems slow and laggy to me. Then again I'm an idiot with dial-up.

My last infraction was from people donating me their zB$ and I bought a Zune 8gb.
Nurta was pissssssed.
Also, I like the updated SB, ours sucked for a really long time.
