Unplanned Outage
Couple of 5 min outages this morning due to router reboots as I had to update some firewall settings. Did not think a reboot would be necessary so my apologies for that.

Spammers
Another "sleeper cell" spammer made it into the system today but I deleted it before they decided to do anything. I am reluctant to make registration more difficult at the moment, so there is chance we might see some spam in the future. I have lots of potential solutions but I kinda want to see how the problem manifests itself before I make new member registration more difficult.

Speed
How are we doing speed wise? My tests have shown that my site is about 60% slower than rpghost, is this becoming an issue for anyone?

Cross links
Oh one more thing. We are dropping a bit in Google rankings due to lack of links to this site. The former rpghost links are gone and most links I have posted in other forums are over 30 days old and therefore unlikely to get archived by Google. Any links that people could put on their sites or any other appropriate places would be appreciated.
