Falls over as soon as it gets a bit busy.
They were as cynical as you lot about the conference.

Just checked SBT users 179 online ( including guests ) and it still runs as smoothly as always. Im sure you GMK users must get annoyed everytime something bigs happening in the world of CCFC ur site goes down with the increased traffic.

I wish it no harm, it's gone up in my estimations since some of the admins got the chop.

Being a city fan and a cynic, I would bet £50 there are no bots.

Cov La la la dont fall into the trap of making it a comp, stating facts or whatever you want to call it, yes GMK gave thi site a bit of stick but I think this site and Nick have handled it brilliantly, the attitude of gmk stucnk and I lost of respect them therefore have not visited as much and stuck here.

I know, but we are all city fans at the end of the day.
If it was a Leicester or Villa board it would be funny but when it comes to it on a Saturday we all want the same thing.

I think there's a fine line between being nice and being soft.

I didn't think there was anything wrong with your post. I was actually defending it.
I don't think it's right to slag GMK off just for the sake of it, but a little to-and-fro will do no harm.

I try my best not to slag off GMK as alot of descent cov fans use that forum. If me or Nick started slagging them off im sure they would see it as a turf war again but anyone else can say what the feck they like about GMK

If we slagged them off they would slagg us off then it would become a war between the two forums and that's not needed.
And we don't really have a reason to slag them off. Since the reshuffle at the top everyone seems civil and long may it continue.

Exactly, Knowl seems a decent fella with his head screwed on!
GMK is absolute shite, i used to love it but a website that can't be read is useless, i don't see the point in pretending otherwise. I am sure Knowl is a nice bloke e.t.c. but his website is gash. If the people running the thing genuinely intended to get it back on form they would have done so months ago.

1. Every site has a handful of 'bots' or spiders pouring over threads-- as part of search engine indexing etc. I very much doubt there is anything untoward on GMK re 'malicious bots'
2. Its clear the GMK hosting is chronically processor/memory underpowered-- so it slows to a snail under load-- then the database starts falling over (probably timing out connections)
3. They need to re-host it!
Having said all that-- it is a very good site, with an edge and dry humour that this one probably lacks---at the moment.

To be honest, I have said it is the hosting on numerous occasions paired with buggy software but I always got told to shut up pretty much
The main issue is that they don't want to spend any money on it and rely on people doing favours.
Knowl seems to have passed on my opinions about it though so fingers crossed.

It was down for me earlier too - this is my new home now anyway.
GMK pushed me away somewhat with the attitude shown towards Nick when it was first back up and running a few days ago, some petty remarks and a very hostile atmosphere in which Nick handled himself well. Such a disappointing thing to see from a site I have used everyday for years.
