Some board functions to be removed, to lighten server load.
With the upgrade of this boards software a few months back, a number of new features appeared. Most of them appear to be fairly redundant at this time, and just adds to our server load.
This is more of an advance warning, so that people know that these things will be disappearing soon, and not to think that it is just a technical fault with the board. But if you know of a reason why any of these should be kept (within the context of our board), please post here with your reasons. Some of these may be reinstated if we relocate to a server with unlimited usage and is more reliable.
- Visitor messages (this is definitely going, as it is being mis-used, and not necessary here with the Private Messaging option).
- Social Groups (not being removed yet, but is being watched to make sure it doesn't get mis-used again - the board rules apply on all board related areas).
- Friends Feature, in members' profile page (seems to be an unnecessary)
- Albums (adds to the server load, and there are other options for free hosting of your images).
- Visitor Tracking (also seems to be unnecessary).
