how can i make my forum quicker? it loads very slow but why and how can i speed up without losing the style to much

i hava Vserver so i don't think this is the problem but the CPU is very high!

Please post a server optimization request at vBulletin.com Server Configuration

And before posting it there, do an upgrade of your outdated VB.

Then - tuning-primer / mysqltuner / apachetop - usually nothing more required to get things running :)

Good luck

i am just guessing
that
Status Feed thing is making heavy load

You can do a number of things. One thing many of us do is to offload static content to a CDN or another server. With all due respects Marco, there are a lot of things that can be done besides changing the vB configuration files. It would be more helpful if folks here would facilitate a discussion versus your standard reply of always pointing people here over to vBulletin.com each time this question is asked. Personally, I have never found the folks over at vBulletin.com to be much help in this area, sorry. They pick and choose what help to give and demand everyone follow a very lengthy template to get a reply. This approach should not be the only way for users to get help. Lighten up and permit vB users to have a discussion without always promoting another "sister" site! Thank you!

Try turning on gzip compression in your vB acp:
AdminCP -> vBulletin Options (x2) -> Cookie/HTTP Header Options -> Gzip

Set it to maximum number 9 and see what happens.
