Did someone try before segmenting as a "website on several servers" to split the load on it ? ... also, making a net of secondary sites posting along news from the avisim could go (yes, someone would have to be so nice to do it for other people).

Load is load and i dont know how they manage the site, but can fairly imagine theyre not dealing with such things like Google.  ;D Also ... they have that warning there : If you are already a registered user and keep seeing this notice, you are not accepting cookies from forum.avsim.net, or avsim.com. You need to allow cookies from both avsim.net and avsim.com to bypass this message and automatically log into AVSIM in future sessions.  ... maybe thats what redirects ya back for some browser based reason. (know had some problems once with the keepvid site and allowing java stuff was kinda dodgy as well.)

Acetone and theshanergy, you dont know the biggest basterds ... have no idea how some people make money out of scientific publications just be "publishing them on the net". Is true they re-check stuff and have the hosting servers, but they dont have to do that the politics way of framing people. (its also some great portion of school funds and professor individual payments to keep up unis at "real time science" level, no matter its actually theyr work being done and posted there).

Want to see some horror?

You are talking about Elsevier and co right? If so, trust me, I know exactly what they do and who they are. In fact, I'm working as a freelance for some folks which are doing the exact opposite of what they do ;D
