Site running so sloooow?
Replies
Hi has anyone else been having problems with the site taking ages to load all day today? Seems to have started after the downtime and is making it very hard to use the site, but not sure if its just me or a widespread issue any thoughts please?
Things have been running really smooth for me. Load times are pretty quick.
[edit] never mind I must have jinxed myself lmao
site has been on and off slow load times for me today it took me a good minute or so to load up this board lol
Today seems to be one of the more difficult days. Yesterday was fine for me, a little lag but nothing terrible. Today however, pages hang and sometimes take forever or several clicks to load. My only guess is, it's just getting ready for Masq.
It's nothing out of the ordinary when an event is coming!
Yeah, I've been having some slow loading times. Nothing too major, though - I just go to a different website and wait for the page to load. :)
Edit: Ironically, a second after I posted this, I was greeted with the Terracoon of Doom. XD
It has now taken me about 20 minutes to get this page to load and am getting time out errors most of the time 524... not happy :( not sure if there is anything I can do, and not sure if I will be able to get this to send ah well at least it did load eventually
Before they took the site down yesterday it was really laggy. Then afterwards the lag was gone...and now today it is back. Really annoyed about it all.
Huh I was just saying "Wow, it's improved, hope Masq starts today!"
Yep. That's why I never believe when companies claim they're fixing servers.
The site has been running really slow for me today. I've been met with more errors than actual pages.

There are several pages on this thread here about it but the tl;dr is that every time they fix it the site seems to break again at 2am site time, now 3am after DST. This has been unusually bad, and despite 4+ pages of reported lag on that thread alone there's been no staff response so idk what's up.
The downtime was supposed to fix this, but if you check their twitter a) what was estimated to be 8 hours turned into 20 hours and b) they still didn't get everything they wanted done with that amount of downtime, so I'm not surprised nothing has been fixed.
I like this site and I have nothing personal against the staff, but having reported lag for literally MONTHS or YEARS depending on how far back you look is just.....really unacceptable. Especially with this lag coming right in the aftermath of the bonus weekend being announced when many users renew their GA's or otherwise buy to get the items and support the site.
The site has been more-or-less unusable for me all day and yesterday. It doesn't matter what I try to do, look at profiles, forums, etc. I haven't even bothered to try to do quests or anything.

I'm not able to do ANYTHING basically, it's driving me absolutely nuts.
Yep, been getting lags since yesterday. Thought it was my internet but the youtube was working fine. Took me good 5 minutes to load this up and sometimes my HA will ended up as error. Not able to do any quests ;__;
So hey folks, after nearly 23 hours of constant lag Bug finally addressed it over on the bug report forums but.....kinda didn't. You can go read it for yourself, but basically it took them almost a full day (in which many GA users, myself included, have lost a lot of the functions that we're paying for!) to just update and say they're aware of the issue and working on it and giving no real answers as to what's going on.
The thread has also been locked so no more responses can be posted for now, supposedly to keep Bug's post visible.
In short we still have no idea what's causing the lag, no answers as to when it'll get fixed or if GA users will somehow be reimbursed for the loss of 2-3 days worth of extra quests, autopricing, and other features that they are paying for, and generally are still all in the dark with no official place to report the lag anymore :)
