What's with the "server too busy" messages?

I don't think it's a good idea.
No new members, a board dies out.

Read all of what everyone writes.

If I go to a forum for the first time and I see that I have to sign up to even view it, do you know what I do? I leave, cuz I'm way too lazy to sign up just to view a forum at the risk of it sucking once I can see it.

The server should be upgraded. 70 or so people on at the same time is nothing, and it seems there isn't enough bandwidth to go around.

then limit the # of guests at one time

Well, it is an idea to make guests register to view the forums. We would of course have to simplify the registration process. Although if we do that bots from search engines will not be able to index GT, so we possibly won't have as many new members. It's something to think about.

i acually agree more with hero.....limit the amount of guests allowed on at any given time.
