Thanks Yogi

But Just removing the music topic and a few from the old general chat forum has cut the database size in half

i will carry on deleting the old topics in the general chat as theres alot of old posts that arent even read anymore

ok guys had a major issue today

the hosting company shut down my hosting account as we had gone over our limit on the database for this site

i have had to delete every post that is over 30 days without being posted in to clear the databse to get them to reactivate my hosting account

i may need to look at a new install and a newer database  but i will let you know

shane

please can everyone check their private messages inbox and sent items and remove any messages you dont need

as i am still trying to lower the database size

if not i will just check all the messages from the database directly which means none will be safe from deletion

thanks

(i have just cleared mine i had 93 in my inbox and 5 pages in my sent )

BLOODY HELL GUYS !!!

the site was shut down due to the database size has gone the limit

it was 24MB  just on the !TTM! database  which doesnt sound much but when the other 9 sites i have are no more than 1.5MB (that includes an E store)

Just where i deleted the old posts the site database went down to 18MB  now some PMs have been cleared its down to 6.93 MB

i am sure theres more out there that need to clear there PM's

well done those that have  :like: :like: :like:
