- GSGuide.net's performance issues look to be resolved. The pages can sometimes be slow to load, taking just about 5 or so seconds to load some of the more information-packed pages, but the wait times shouldn't hit those dreaded 30+ second marks anymore. The upload limit is capped again, so people don't accidentally upload almost a gigabyte of images. We'll be clearing out all old revisions shortly and optimizing the database one last time, so the site continues to run smoothly.
- With that all said, GSGuide.net could use some support with promoting the site. Some of the most wanted guides are always asked for, but without a voice, no one can find the site. GSGuide.net still has one of the best GoS guides out there, and most commonly asked questions on the forums and in-game can be answered right here! Support the site and let it grow!

- We are aware of the performance issues with load times from page to page. This is largely due to the caching of this site. When GSGuide.net was started, the database options were small, which allowed load times to be handled at a normal pace. With the coming of many images (some giant in size), the database queries started to become larger and larger. Caching options aren't really an option due to how GSGuide.net is hosted, but after some backups are made, some other options will be explored to help the site move at a better pace.

Featured Guide
The Guardians of Sunfist Guide
The Guardians of Sunfist is the third society to be added to GemStone IV. The society is much different than the Order of Voln or the Council of Light, as the task system is very similar to the Adventurer's Guild with a four milestone tasks at Ranks 5, 10, 15 and 20. The society seems to fit nicely with characters who have a decently balanced amount of mana and stamina, due to the fact that the benefits from the society draw from either your mana or stamina, or both.
