Okay, what the hell is going on with the server?

Intrepid Homoludens · 12-21-2003, 04:22 PM

It's been off ALL day and when it is on it's intermittent, only several minutes each time! And I don't think it has to do with Marek uploading his fabulous FOAG feature, either - he's fast asleep right now as I type this and the site had been down for the past few hours. I can't post in the forums, I can't post news in the site. This is one of the worst servers ever. [rant, rant, rant]

*sigh*

***tabacco*** · 12-21-2003, 07:42 PM

We're working on a long-term fix.

He he I was unable to "get my fix" of the AG forums for a day...

I was just about to post a thread asking if I was the only one with trouble, but it seems I'm not...

Intrepid Homoludens · 12-22-2003, 10:49 AM

Shows you how addictive this damn community is whenever the boards go down and people get whiny.

Skinny Minnie · 12-22-2003, 11:21 AM

I dunno what's going on, but Jedicri and I are wondering if we've gotta change our deoderant or something-- I mean, both Adventure Gamers and PC Gameworld's forums have been down lately...

Kingzjester · 12-22-2003, 01:16 PM

Somebody needs to be tarred and feathered and chased out of town...

Erkki · 12-22-2003, 02:21 PM

Finally it's up for me! I haven't been able to access it for 4 days. I was dying here already...

***tabacco*** · 12-23-2003, 02:13 AM

We're running on our new host now. You should notice speed improvements, and much much much less frequent downtime.

And, so that all of you who were complaining can finally be quiet, yes the forum clock is accurate now.

Nice, hope this server holds together now for a long time now.

Greetings, people of AdventureGamers!
Don't panic. All is well now. The future of adventure games feature will resume today with the 3rd installment of my article.

Firefoot · 12-23-2003, 04:01 AM

Yeah... finally I've got some spare time and again AGers down... :eek:

Good to see it back (again

)... and 'hey', who logged me off the forums!

[edit] Wow, speed... or is it just the time of the day? Speaking about... the forums says it is 5:00PM, but it's 13:00 here...
*runs like hell*

***Marek*** · 12-23-2003, 05:32 AM

You have to log in because your browser can't tell that this instance of the forums is exactly the same as the one where it was previously hosted. Other than that, the transition should be seamless.

Moosferatu · 12-23-2003, 07:51 AM

I'm loving the new servers speed. 8-)

BTW, did LFN switch too, or just AGers?

Just AG. We've left LFN.

Erwin_Br · 12-23-2003, 02:48 PM

I figure AG's departure will improve LFN's speed too.

Oh well...

Zanthia · 12-24-2003, 12:44 PM

Good thing its all over. When I couldn't get to the forums in friday and then sunday, and then monday it reminded me of summer fall.

Kolzig · 12-25-2003, 04:00 PM

We're on our own, and we like it
