ya i been looking and the crazy thing is i havnt been able to find anything really out of the ordinary. i made some changes on bandwidth ussage on the forum yesturday and today is way down however the day is not over yet. what time zone do you all use so i can see if the changes i made helped? i am redlining now on ussage and just got a dedicated server from you all recently and the forum really is not that big to be using this kind of bandwidth. hopefully the changes i made will help
