wow... i didn't even know there
could be a max!
my boards has 1,200 members. i'd say half of that number only visited the boards during the registration process -- but i like to keep them around, just incase
realistically, the most i'd ever have on at one time would be... i dunno... 75? even that is probably high. 25 is average.
so, because that doesn't seem large at all, i'm assuming that wasn't/isn't the problem. i'd put my stock in this assessment:

if thats the case... what can i do to take better care of it?
as it is, right now my boards are back but walking on thin cyber ice. they're slow and creaky and i'm too afraid to optimize the tables or do any other maintenence things, for fear something'll crumble.
i'm also not in control of my servers -- i host with
www.lunarpages.com so they'd have my database.
