Whilst logged in go the main page http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/index.php?4 and click on "reset new posts" against each section. This will reset the count of how many messages are new to you.


The reason: Every time you visit the forum it looks to see if there are new messages for you. There are about 1.4 million messages and it has to look at the new ones, count them and show you the number or put 'new' next to the messages. There's about 50,000 users on the forum and so this takes time and effort, for the geeks out there there's 16 millions rows in the new_messages_table.


We've also cleaned out lots of old messages and managed to reduce the database from 15Gb to 6 Gb which should speed it up a bit too, which is nice.

    • Pickup your dogs shit off the street, it's so simple. Don't own a dog if you cannot do this basic service. Pathetic. Cleaning my shoes of dog shit for the 2nd time this month. What's going on? 
    • Hi SpringTime, I completely understand the concern for protecting birds, but using bells on cats is a bit more complicated. While they may reduce hunting success, they're not always effective & can cause stress for some cats, who are highly sensitive to sound. A better solution is to ensure cats are kept indoors during peak bird activity & providing plenty of enrichment at home to satisfy their hunting instincts. There's a terrible misconception that cats do not require as much mental & physical enrichment as dogs do. But they do, if not more so.
    • But we can train them to kill the foreign invaders, green sqwaky things, and the rats with feathers 
    • Hi Nigello, Many spayed/neutered & microchipped cats actually don't wear collars, as they often go missing & can pose risks.  Microchipping is far more reliable for reuniting lost cats with their guardians. Some of our clients even keep sacks of collars on standby because their cats frequently return without them - a comical but telling example of how impractical collars can be. A major contributor to unspayed/unneutered cats & kittens is purchasing from breeders, where these measures are often overlooked. Adopting from shelters, on the other hand, ensures all precautionary steps - like spaying/neutering, microchipping, as well as vaccinations - are already in place.
