anyone else having trouble with the zhu stock checker - keeps timing out for me

You folks are good at crashing servers ... lol.

Seems like my host has restarted it now.

I am convinced that people are F5ing unnecessarilly ... this server is capable of powering major corporate websites getting millions of visitors a day .. I have 10,000 on avge.

If I detect people refreshing too frequently, I will need to put them on the naughty step. (may consider banning IPs of obviously frequent offenders that hit the page every x seconds)

The stock doesn't update any faster by pressing F5 and DOES crash servers.

If you want to see 60 second updates, then we need everyone to behave by the rules otherwise I will need to slow down the updates, but I don't think that people want that.

ooh ive just noticed that there is also a button on top of the hamsters head that when pressed makes different noises!!! i knew there was his nose button and the large button on his back but didnt know there was one on his head as well

Well done you - I didn't know that either - I knew they had Love mode and explore mode but thought it was just the nose and the back we pressed otherwise. :T

well ive just had a chat with chunk and so far i have worked out that you press the symbol on his back to make him move and make noises as he trundles along then you have to press the symbol again to make him stop, his nose you press in to make him do the noises again and also when he runs into something he makes a noise,then the button on his head when pressed makes him go through all of his noises without having to keep pressing the button more than once

you havent been trying to place orders with Toys R Us have you? just a thought.. theyr very good at 'reserving' the funds for non existent orders.

No sadly not TRU

The fraudulent transactions were all for Interflora from what the fraud dept lady could make out.

I'm sure its nothing to do with any of the websites I've entered my card details on from this thread but I just had a thought that I'd used companies on here that I wouldn't normally have used recently.

I know with all the hammy hysteria peeps tend to get less cautious than they would normally be!

On the plus side the money has already been taken by the dreaded Mail Order Express so something Go Go (hopefully the ball) should be on it's way to me
