Posting is a bit slow this morning and I experienced several minutes when I got a database error screen trying to do anything.

Thanks, Bill. I'm on a shared server. Once in awhile someone else's account on the server gets a runaway script which can bring the server to its knees. They usually get things corrected fairly quickly on my host end.

Oh, wait, nevermind. I see you were on the forum at a day/time when usage is at about its lowest. I run a script that backs up the forum database at 2am CST Mondays. That's why you got those errors. ;-)

Thanks.

That is good to know. While I was getting the slow response, then the errors, I was thinking, "I hope there are backups."
