Well, that spells bad for hot topics, but spells good for the server. And the server is more important then the hot topics. So I don`t really consider it a dissapointment.

(if you're asking for members' opinions...)

If it would help the site, I would have no problem with the elimination of the Hot Topics list.

Incidentally, I wonder how many people are still lurking around who remember when there also used to be a "last ten posts" box beneath the Hot Topics box.

I remember when there was not Last 10 or Hot Topics.

I wouldn't have a problem with it. The server is much more important.

And I do remember Smeag.

This is probably good. I like checking Hot Topics every now and then to see what's neign discussed in depth, but it doesn't need to be updates often. And, of course, it wouldn't bother me too much if it went. However, you'd sure take away alot of bragging rights to those who can say "My topic made it to the Hot Topics list".

Keep that severe going, Bink. Thanks again for your efforts. B)

So I assume that the same reasons presented here are why the "Last 10 posts" (it used to be under the Hot Topics) was removed. Now that I think about, I really miss that feature. I ended up posting in a lot more topics outside of the normal forums I frequent just b/c of that tablet.

I remember Smeag too!

I also agree that the Hot Topics list should be booted if it is such a big strain on the server.

I don't think we'll get rid of it, it'll just not be updated as often.

I think it'd be better to get rid of it then to have an old list, I think the function works best if it's updated regularly.

I know how hard it is to manage a database. But yet it gets complicated. What version of MySQL are you using?
