site been slow?

[ViPER1313]

I'm 99.99% sure its an issue with the database / database server - just like I said, when I did a dump of all the tables after this started it would lag, go at 400kbps, lag, go 400kbps. Navigating pages in MYSQL was so slow it was painful. The main page and articles/links/faq page have nothing to do with the database/DB server and load instantly. IDK if it is an issue with the database needing to be optimized or the server itself, but the problem is with the DB.
