Please title your topic appropriately.

Being frustrated will not solve any problem any quicker.


I know you have joined my site.. but the guidelines here still apply.


Help us help you, if we can.. is the problem a TinyPortal problem?

If it is, carry on..

Thats OK I shut it down.............

I have connected to your site just fine. If you're server is timing out, perhaps you have a custom block or something causing a problem. Or it could be the host having problems as well.

That happens to me once or twice a month for 2-6 hours with me and my host, I am on the other side of the world though

But when I get access again I see members have made posts while I couldn't connect.

It came back up. Deleted all forums and shut the damn thing down.

[Zetan]

Shut what down? You shut the site down? Or the SMF/TP shut it down?

[MetalSlam]

The forum. Cannot shut the site down TinyPortal is hosting the site. But thats proably coming next. In next I mean canceling the hosting subscription. Fed up with this forum stuff......

[Zetan]

Fair enough.. if it's not for you, quit it. Theres millions of forums and only a few of those are very successful.
I feel like quitting too sometimes.. maybe I will one day.


Don't give up just because the software is hard to understand, or because you are having a hard time with it.
It's meant to be fun, and it is when building a site.. building a good member base and content isn't so much fun and it's hard work.

Gotta tough it out till the domain expires. But it can sit, its not eating or drinking anything.
