They need to do a purge of the server. There are dozens of boards here, with each having posts going back 5 years. Who needs posts 5 years old?!! They could get rid of the who's online feature. They could purge the galleries of inactive users They could reduce the size limit of images posted to the gallery. They could get change the method of how images are added to posts. Instead of having them uploaded to the server forever like they are, they could make it so that we had to upload them to our own web space. There is a lot of things that can be done to speed up this site. A good purging and a few small changes would help a great deal.

"It is good to see ourselves as others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi
