Title: Missed my forum fix.....

Great to have it back up and running after a wee fault, mailed Noula, and hey presto. First place I look every morning, it,s like the village itself, draws me like a magnet. Happy September everyone  ;D.

From the error message, the site exceeded its monthly bandwidth allowance from its ISP. It reset today because it's September 1st.

Oh dear, perhaps we don't want the forum to be too busy then? Sorry to say my staying logged in all the time is not likely to help in any way! I'll log out in future :-[

Thanks Jimbo. I noticed this a few weeks ago too - must have been end of July - your explanation makes more sense than the announcement that appears on-screen!

Same here, I started swearing and closing all my other websites down as I thought it was me! Should we log out when not actually in the forum then? I don't but I will if its an issue!

I suspect it's the live webcam. It sends a picture every two seconds, so over a few weeks it can add up. Maybe a lot of traffic on San Stefano travel itself, as well.

No Jimbo, I think you are spot on with the webcam, it's quite heavy duty stuff even at low quality...

Quite. This didn't happen before webcam live view went active again. I'll mail Dimitris about it.

I have two servers, so I'm used to issues like this!

Thanks Jim, the live camera isn't that good anyway.
