R22Master Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 Dost thou need any donations to fund the memory upgrade? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, that of course would be great but don't have a mechanism in place at the moment. Besides that though, taking donations is something that Arnie would have to decide himself and as he is not on-line that much at the moment, we'll just have to wait and see. Did we just have about 45 minutes of down time, or did no one feel like posting? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes we did. That was the crash I referred to in my earlier post. It was rather unusual as most downtimes tend to be limited to 5->10 minutes max. Rest assured it has been added to the list of things to check up on Oh, and have we considered sprinkling Havoc's blood and rep points on the server? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Blood - no. That would just make everything sticky, HaVoC's parents woefully happy, and the server short out - not good. Rep points - Why don't we take a vote? He has already pledged that he wanted his rep count reset to zero not 3 feet from both myself and Arnie in a Herefordshire field in the dark. That's proof enough for me So go "Off Topic" with his poll-worthy rep count. A "for" and "against" zero-repping the account might be option-worthy. Results will be considered the next time I have spare time with the Admin control panel and an unholy level of boredom, but are not guaranteed to dictate rep-altering policy. HaVoC - Be afraid - be VERY afraid. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hivemind Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 Was it me, or was the entire site inaccessible for seven hours today? I couldn't get to it from work or home or the laptop on campus... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shao14 Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 You are not alone. The other day, I got a new type of error instead of the usual too many connections. Any ideas? The interesting thing is that the site traffic monitored by Invision seems to have been sharply decreasing. Why is the site still doing worse? This site has handled more traffic better before. http://www.sitemeter.com/?a=stats&s=sm5arniesairsoft&r=36 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
STARGATESG1NUT Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 Its only the tenth of April though, still have 20 days before April is over. And to hivemind, I could not access the site from about 3(when I got home) to about 20 minutes ago. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shao14 Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 Its only the tenth of April though, still have 20 days before April is over. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That is very true. But the down slope trend was since January. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Catman Posted April 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 Odd thing really... I mean connecting to a database through a sock... (j/k I'm a web developer of >7 years, I know more than enough about servers to bore a snail to death) And yeah the site was unreachable for the last few hours - DNS fault? think I'll make a note of the IP incase it happens (again) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hk_chick Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 this is the first time in 2 days I've been able to get on the site - constantly alternates between 'too many connections' and the one that shao got I thought the site was shut down to sort these problems out??

Aod Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 me too. it was working last night, for about 5 minutes, then it crashed after it tried to sent more than 100kB of Data... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Catman Posted April 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 it's going up and down more often than errr.... something that goes up and down lots I guess they're still trying to work through the problem(s) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rob15 Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 (edited) I notice that it has to look up alot of stuff, is it at all possible to have the option to view the forum without alot of the carp of it? Such as just having the member name and nothing else? Maybe cut some other parts as well. I would probably use this if I thought it was helping the server run faster. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Lo-fi version, bottom of the page. I used to use it a lot when i was still on dial up, ran a lot faster Edited April 20, 2006 by Rob15 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wai Hoong Chan Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 does this have anything to do with the reset in rep points....? o_O Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Arnie Posted April 24, 2007 Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 No, it's a fault with mysqld - it's being looked into by the hosting techs as that what their job is Waiting on a response to what's up as at the moment they are looking at it and seeing whatr's going on.
