Oh yeah...
Where's the congratulation for Razz's promotion to moderator?

I've been wondering the saame thing. I noticed it yesterday morning, and no news since from the administraitor. Maybe when they have time they will.

The database is where all the posts etc etc are stored, and its about 57mb in size, which is pretty large for a mysql database dump.

Oh, I see... Because when I used my calculator the byte-post ratio was waaay out of proportion. It turned out as if we post 25,000+ characters per post.

EDIT: Would it be cheaper to backup SF on a burnt DVD? I mean, a blank DVD is like $1.

Yes. Thats what makes it so large.

Tabs are fine.

Does the 1.5 GB also include the uploaded pictures?

I use Firefox and my tabs are just fine.

My tabs aren't destroyed, either.

I always use SF in tabs on firefox, and it doesn't destroy the tabs.

Message boards usually don't reach 1 GB...

o-o

Oh and if possible could you fix the SF-only error that makes the site destroy all other tabs/browsers when this site is open? O_O >_>

No actually, thats quite large.

The database is where all the posts etc etc are stored, and its about 57mb in size, which is pretty large for a mysql database dump.

Nice!

But 1.5GB is like, small-ish for a forum like this.
