Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 35 bytes) in /var/home/blades/html/forums/admin/db_mysql.php on line 154

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 40 bytes) in Unknown on line 0

Anyone? It doesn't do it for all searches, but only for some...?

Dave, its simple. You are getting the error message because youre not a Gold member. If you were a Gold member, you would be receiving a different error messaage, written in a more personable tone.

Megalobye ive gotten the same message, and I am a gold member.

What i believe why your getting this is 'cause of your search query is comming up with to much finds stressing the engine. Try being more exact, or make it a definitive find.

See if that works.

MM was joking a bit, hence the part about getting the same message, but in a more personable tone.

Don't do a search using words like knife, knives, steel or others that would be found in thousands of threads.

Good answers guys. This belongs in tech support though...
