~n[EO]n~ Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 I think when there are 2 many users logged in the server gets busy the page doesn't load. This happens to me too... If you provide them better server maybe this problem gets solved... Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/70466-phpfreaks/#findComment-354069 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes , they need it , i read in one thread about donation, people were contributing but i think it is paused for now. Maybe they have found some alternatives.

bilis_money Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 well i guess the MODS or ADMINS should explain this further of the reason why they paused the donation? why?

ober Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 You can still submit donations. That has not changed. The problem is people are leeching content from the main site and it's dragging down the entire site. That's why the server has been going down.

bilis_money Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 That's why the server has been going down. I think i need to do something to fix the problem and help eric for this case. It is really a major problem because it is driving people away from this site. Where is that donation button again?

steelmanronald06 Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 Actually, there is a way to stop content leeching. I don't know how, and it is going to mean that all of phpfreaks will need re-programming. In fact, there are one or two people here who I'm going to get in contact with and see if they want to do a small phpfreaks overhaul. :-/ Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/70466-phpfreaks/#findComment-354512 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might be wrong, but that is my guess. But if you do stop content leeching, all content from the server can't be shown on other sites. Its like the "good" stuff can't be leeched off. :-X Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/70466-phpfreaks/#findComment-354567 Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelmanronald06 Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 Exactly. We don't want our content leeched. We want visitors to come to us. But i think we can do page caching...i could be off. I'll have to look into it.

maliary Posted September 25, 2007 Author Share Posted September 25, 2007 Am a bit lost, how does content leeching occur ? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/70466-phpfreaks/#findComment-354672 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 It's when some websites use the content here thus using PHP Freaks' bandwidth and system resources. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/70466-phpfreaks/#findComment-354680 Share on other sites More sharing options...
448191 Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 Caching is always a good idea, and very applicable to the main site. It helps to know who is leeching though.

steelmanronald06 Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 Is leeching done via sockets...assuming their using PHP? We can almost assume that since this is a PHP site and if they want our content they are highly more possible to be using PHP. So if so, can you block sockets? Or maybe an HTTPS? i've never looked much into leeching. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/70466-phpfreaks/#findComment-354885 Share on other sites More sharing options...
