It's annoying and HMW only seems to make it worse, but at least we know HMW is not the sole cause because it happens to the site even when HMW is down.

I've had the same problem. I too am confused by what the problem is. It can't really be HMW, as the site was working perfectly yesterday. But if HMW lasts the weekend I'll be very surprised.

There's too much running on the seibs server. The used to be two at one point but now there's only one apparently.
The phpbb3 upgrade to the forums and HMW each put strain onto the server and cause these problems. As pointed out it's not just HMW but that's what usually tips things over the edge so is the first to get taken down.

i despise this site when it gets slow, but if it happens, it's usually after 8 for me here. I bought a new tf from forbidden planet today.....................PRIMUS BABY!!!!!!!!!!!! nearly bought metroplex, but knew id be killed if i did lol. Picked up spotlight arcee aswell, quite a good read tbh, better than i was thinking it would be, shame she wasnt more like that in the cartoon hehe

How does the ogame work? I went to the thread, tried to figure it out and got very confused! :grin:

am slowy building up my HMW team, am up to 8 bots, but they're all still lvl 0 though!

News Credits: 2 · Sun Mar 02, 2008 7:26 am

They'll probably be level 0 for a while yet.

I was looking forward to Tekka going one on one with ThunderThruster but then that other guy jumped in at the last minute. =(

Just need to win two more battles and I'll be giving Tekka an armour upgrade. So hopefully he'll be a bit tougher to kill if he's a little outnumbered, because at the moment I'm getting raped horribly in 2 vs 1.

Being the generous guy that I am, I'll give you HMW newbies a good tip. Don't be in such a rush to level up. You can get your bots up to 40,000xp before being forced to level up. A level 0 bot with 30,000xp can be a force to be reckoned with, whereas a Level 1 bot with only 15,000 can be quite a pushover. Also, at Level 0 you have free CR chambers.

Frimal, I would just like to point out It is not a good idea to mess with my team without back-up.

Sun Mar 02, 2008 8:55 am

so what your saying is that we should be trying to gain s**t loads of xp and make use of 'free' cr chambers!

smart move actually!

That is exactly what I'm saying you should be doing. I like to get my bots up to 30,000 before levelling them up.

blimey, its been a while since i posted here, gotta insert some plastic booby crack in here before people forget me and my obsession wiht plastic boobies :grin:

when are we gonna see some non Movie TFs over here, getting a bit tired of them now, although i did pick up Landmine the other day...very nice, oh and i nearly bought MP Megs yesterday, but i just couldnt justify spending £90 on a TF, so i went and bought another anime fig, another lovely Kasumi fig to add to the collection, which isw growing rapidly thanks to the lack of decent TFs

oh and here is my latest plastic booby crack fix (not my pic btw)

Hey guys, ive been fine, lack of TFs and getting addicted to Eve Online is why ive not been posting much...that and the new job not allowing much forum browisng during the day...

As for the booby crack, that particular figure was purchased in Gamestation yesterday for £9.99, they have had them for a while but i dont think they are stocking more as my local store didnt have any, but i found this one in Norwich (staying with a mate), the others are either from evilbay or this place:
