It's been slow but manageable for me the last thirty hours or so. Now it's toast once again.
I hope Oz is ready; Ansett here we come!</font>

Keep your fingers crossed - and THANK YOU
Because of the recent performance slowdown on FlyerTalk, we'll be taking down FT Miles to check and rebuild it. It'll be going offline at 2pm ET today (12 noon MT) for a few hours and we hope to have it back up again later this afternoon.
Thank you for your continued patience and patronage.

Dan- Unless the site is under attack, traffic can't be the problem. It was working perfectly fine until Friday morning when suddenly it went belly up. Also, the AA board can't be accessed no matter what time of day or night. Those are not characteristics of a board which is experiencing "high traffic" from its members.
There clearly is something very wrong that you aren't getting at. Time does not appear to be resolving the problem.

If it's a problem with the size of the forum, then old messages should be archived in another forum.
Based on the fact that's it's inaccessable all the time, I doubt it's traffic related. Probably a software problem.

All AA posters are welcome on this fine little and otherwise disused ANSETT AIRLINES forum:
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/Forum13/HTML/000502.html
No technical glitches over THERE. Been positively HUMMING lately with all the traffic it now gets. There is a Free VIPOW being given away at random every hour too, not that would interest many of you.
You can start threads on WHATEVER you wish re AA. Upgrades, downgrades, no grades. Good food, bad food, no food. You know, the same old stuff you posted about in the AA forum anyways.
But please, no flames wars or no blonde jokes over there. The unpaid, unofficial, ineffectual Moderator will need to take rapid and stern action if there is. You HAVE been warned.
Good recipies for lamingtons and pavlovas ARE however right now being asked about, just in case you can assist. The only cooking I do is to phone Pizza Hut home delivery.

Has anyone tried to contact Randy about this problem? It is not a "traffic" problem and Dan, despite his best efforts, is unable to resolve it. Clearly the AA board is dead with no hopes of revival.

Have faith, patience, and appreciation for the amount of work Dan is putting into this, and I'm confident your AA forum will be purring again soon.

Thanks to Tim for isolating the main cause of the recent slowdown: the AA forum had some repeating corruption problems that we couldn't keep out of it, due to the constant hits. He eventually cleaned it out and things seem (for now at least) to be back to normal...
