Anyone else have this problem?
After a while, (I've noticed this most on vBulletin-based forums, but have noticed it on most forums at one time or other) I lose the little down-arrows on the top menu. The ability to click on the icons in edit mode (to the right) and formatting stuff (above) also goes away. Only thing that brings it back for that forum is a reboot. Or am I missing something?
What's really strange? I have it fine here (on SunSims) but have lost it on Pearl's Chateau and one other forum at the moment. Very puzzling stuff. |

It's probably a matter of server speed. You might be seeing pages time out before vBulletin has had a chance to calculate the whole page.
Every page brings in a heck of a lot of scripts and calls to the database server. If the webmaster has installed custom skins and extra features that require even more database lookups, then the server's workload can multiply exponentially. We're running pretty much stock vBulletin here on a very fast, lightly loaded shared server.
