Yup, the site is still going up and down. Believe me, we know! The stability has increased today and yesterday a bit, but that's not enough.
This wednesday we will be taking the site offline for up to two days.
This will be a major overhaul of our current server infrastructure. We will be taking it all apart, and rebuilding it from the ground up.
Thank you for all your support :)!

you know it saddens me to see all these harsh comments and people quiting over something so meaningless. i mean if your gonna quit do it silently and not dramatize it on the comments page.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

In a way this sucks..because I have the week off from work, but it's good because I'm sick...so I'll be able to sit in bed and nt worry about checking boards.
If it helps, it can't be bad!

OMG.. more downtime?? This is insane. I haven't been able to get on steadily for I don't know how long. I haven't been spending nearly as much time here.. and this just confirms my feelings. Just like Daring Spirit said.. she found a post from over a year ago.. promising all this would be over.. and the site would be up and running with no down time.. etc. sigh Whatever. More promises = more disappointments.

you and me both, girl. All these promises that after this downtime things will be much much better. It's been said each time we had a major down time. We, meaning I, appreciate the attention to the servers, but it's just beating a dead horse at this point. How much more 'we have major uphauling to the servers' credit points do you have left? Candle's burning dim, folks. It's getting kinda hard to see here.

Thanks for the update and letting us know ahead. It has been difficult to know when its down or not. I just tried to post a comment and it went down, so I had to wait yet again. I just hope the revision to the servers won't kick us back meaning reseting things to what we have found now and might lose. Such as the last free gift as an example. Good luck with the updating and fixings, and I hope you are feeling better after your bout with the flu.

Yeah, rebuild from scratch and start anew. Rid all potential problems and improvise on the game play.

You think?

I actually found somewhere else to play today and, although I love Subeta, I find the other site just as addictive. I found a post the other day from Dec 2006 where Keith said something along the lines of new servers, lag and downtime will be non-existent. We can see how well that worked. If the downtime only lasts for 2 days I'll be surprised and if it fixes the problems, I'll be gobsmacked. Still, downtime means I can actually do some household chores sigh

What is the point of reimbursing us for GA time if we're not going to be able to use or GA time? I hope we don't loose two of the seven days you gave back to us.

[quote I hate Neo but if an item is lost in trades or there is a glitch, they at least replace the item for you.unquote]

When I was on that other place they NEVER replaced anything that was lost in a glitch.I think it even said in the rules they would Not replace anything that was lost in glitches.

I just want Subeta to work. That's all. It bothers me that the site goes down frequently, but I have absolutely no control over that. I'm at the mercy of the "servers". blink. I wanna know.. .exactly how many people are working on these servers and getting them fixed? If it's just one person, then I can justify the crappy service.
....Just fix it. That's all we ask.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

I hope every ones accounts will be backed up but I am glad that the site is being fixed. You are all doing a great job on subeta staff!!

ahem okay I'm better now... in honor of there being no subeta on Wednesday, I shall pick up my PS2 controller and begin to commit mass murder until Subeta is up again.

Anyway, I'm glad you pre-warned us all of the upcoming downtime. Believe me, muchlies appreciated.

So, is this the much talked of rewrite? And if not...why not? We've been hearing about a supposed rewrite for months now, and it has yet to happen. Can it just, you know, happen already? Even if the site has to be down longer, in the end it would be worth it just to finally get the damned rewrite done. A whole lot of talking has been done, but not much seems to have been fixed.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

two days; are you sure that's enough?
Because I would much rather wait a week or more for a smooth working site than have to deal with the same or similar problems if you don't take all the time you need.

lol, think of it as lent season for us subetaholics...

First, I hope that yu can fix the problem.
Good luck hopefully you will solve all the glitches so we have no moe problems. I think that it is great that you are trying to fix the problems and that you are letting us know that the site will be down in advance.
As to the comments above abot the ga acoonts, getting time back for time lost for glitches like we are having it is only fair that we get what we pay for. (not met to sound harsh) I also have to agree with some of the points Heavenly_pixie has made.
I too want to know if since you are overhauling if that mean we will loose our cuurent accounts? I would think not but i am asking to set my mind at ease.

Thanks Keith for the News on what's happening, this is what we players like to see, being kept in the circle

Good Luck with fixing the servers I just hope it fixes things.

Heavenly_pixie... well said to

I just hope that when the Recode is 'finally' set in place (whenever that is) that the code is kept up to date and checked over, so the code doesn't go to being so unstable that a whole new recode is needed again.

Good Luck and I look forward in seeing the improvements

keith and the rest of the staff: you do so much for the site ... you folks need free time after this problems huggles all of you
thank you a lot noddnodd

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

Good luck on your fixing things there Kieth. I'm sure that this has caused you as much grief as this has caused us. Just a question, so forgive me for asking, but, is there perhaps some way to update the site, and do all of that, and not pull it offline each time? I'm sure I have no idea how other sites do it, but I rarely if ever see downtime on their ends. Maybe it's a program, I don't know. But that'd be so wonderful if that were possible.

Loads of luck!

"Don't you know taking care of your players will get you more in the long run? * shakes head* I guess being a CEO/ owner at 18 leaves a lot to still be learned in the long run.
If you took the time to actually listen to your players issues and concerns, people may not get so frustrated
Good Luck with getting the site up and running, I for one do not think anything will change.... I hope you can prove me wrong. "

down again?! ugghhh

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

I'm a gold account user and, while yea it can be frustrating at times when the site is down a whole lot, I don't see why people are getting so upset... There is a lot of information that goes into this site and when you're working with an outdated program (version 4 I believe) it has problems. Besides, it just gives you time to do something outside of the internet. I know it's going to be down the first few days of my spring break, but that's no big deal. It'll give me time to clean my room and play final fantasy 12. If you stop buying gold accounts or donation items etc. then you're really only helping the problem worsen. Servers and all that other stuff aren't exactly cheap. Well that's the end of my rant, good luck with the overhaul and I hope that it doesn't zap too much of your time!
