Server Update!

Server Update



Alright, that did not go according to plan! We had some hardware issues (with our load balancer) that caused us to not be able to complete the move in the amount of time that we\'d have liked. If we\'d continued it was likely the site would be down until noon, or later!

Instead we have brought the site back up on our existing servers, and will continue to work on the new ones until we can attempt a transfer again.

Thank you for being so patient! ❤

Honestly, I don't mind if it goes down for a bit as long as it's for a good reason. Which this is. Don't think so little of us - we won't abandon the ship just because there's a rat in the cargo room.

Thank you all for working so hard for us. I hope you can fix it soon and make the move smooth c: Even if you guys are half asleep while you type the news, trying to stay awake while you're fixing Subeta, but whatever. 8D

And most of us would be able to survive without a day or so of Subeta..

No worries Keith, we know the first rule of computing: anything that can fail will fail. And if you're running a Windows platform, it'll fail quicker and in a much grander scale! We love you guys and thank you for the massive amount of anguish you went through to do this for us to play and frolic (yes I used that word) on a shiny new server of awesomeness!

I think servers just don't like you D: And don't worry about having the site down extra to move, we're patient XD

Haha, it'd be done by now if you would have kept going. ><

Going without Subeta for a morning isn't so bad.

I agree, take all the time you need, guys =) Just give us updates on Twitter or something so we know you're still alive.

Agree with what others are saying - I wouldn't mind the site being down for a day if it meant that Vesnali and future events would go more smoothly.

Yeah, I definitely remember when the site was down more often than it was up. We survived. A few hours downtime now, especially for improvement of the site instead of just random crashes, won't kill us. :P But thanks for keeping us updated!

I agree with the others in that if subeta has to be down for a whole day or longer, for the greater good of the site, then so be it. Heck, I was here back in the day when the site was down almost as much, if not more, than it was up and I'm still here, as are a bunch of others. It's all good. :D

It's okay, do what you have to! If MapleStory can have day-long server updates, so can subeta! ^^

no problem! Sorry you got problems with the transfer... and agree with others; take down the site for one day and do what you gotta do. I'll certainly understand, I'm sure others will, too.

Awww... Well I for one wouldn't have minded. Better it be down for a day and be done with it than you have to put it off but that's so wonderful that you did this. Now there won't be as many suffering withdrawals, lol! Hope you get it to go smoothly next go round.

Eh, I agree, you could have just kept going.. then you know.. gave us a nice shiny item for all the effort we had to put in... to not wind up drooling on ourselves in boredum. nudge nudge nudgeLol :P Hopefully it'll all get sorted soon... I'm excited for the next big event to see how smoothly it all runs.

We love you guys! Always working so hard... at least that is what I am picturing.... you could be shooting wasabi peas through straws at each other all night and drinking mountain dew.... BUT i think you are all really working hard :D <3 <3

I would rather have no site for a few hours versus pages not loading because there are too many people online for day over events and the like.

Ups, wrong news, lol. Sorry. I hope the next "update" will be more successful. I don't think Subeta community minds a longer downtime. We're all adults haha :'D

Eh, and here I thought TC and Minion are a must-have to even have the chance to get queued.. Or were these cleared, too? I mean, is it okay to use quotes from books and persons when we add the info who said/ wrote it?

I could live with the site being down for a day :P

I think you should just let Subeta be down for awhile and get it over with instead of dragging it on forever.

It's not like the users will die off without Subeta for a day.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder, right?

If Blizzard Entertainment can take a full 24 hrs to fix a server issue, you can too. :)

Well, good luck with the next then! ;) It's always a shame when Subeta is down, it's so much fun! But we'll survive, I'm sure. :P

I think what was saying is that they are going to upload it gradually so a bit at a time instead of the whole site at once if I am wrong someone can correct me but that is how I took it.

OMG That long! how will I survive without Subeta for a few hours?! sarcasm No,.. seriously. Do your move. I'm sure people can find SOMETHING to do instead of sitting in front of a computer all day. lol.

I don't think anyone would have a problem if Subeta would be down for a whole day. o.o You need your time for the server thing, I guess, everyone can survive one day without Subeta. xD

I'm sure we can all suffer with the site being down an entire day so it can just get done and moved! come on Keith! just tell us when and we'll survive!

I agree that even though it may take awhile most of us know its going to be better in the long run so its worth the time its going to take!

I'm sure that others think like me when I say: whatever is necessary to keep Subeta up, I'll wait till it's done! But I'm happy to be able to play though ;)

Awwww, too bad. :( You should take the site down for the whole day and do what needs to be done. I am so sure that everyone could abide with that knowing that the site would be better than ever.

Why not take the site down for the whole day instead of copying the whole database multiple times now?
