Downtime

During the next two days, we will have small amounts of downtime for server upgrades. One of our main php/apache servers had a hardware failure, which is the reason for all the most recent lag :( So we are going to be finding the problem, and also adding some new hardware to our network :)

I hope everyone enjoys their Holidays and has lots of fun with Family and Friends :D

no matter how many times i read the item i could not see any apology to those who pay real cash to support the site or any explanation for why it took a week for any staff member to post anything relating to the problem

Sorry, guys -- we're not doing this to intentionally be a pain on your holidays. We can't help when servers fail or break!

That being said, I'm personally grateful to everyone working on the servers and other areas of the site right now; we all have families, too, and time is being taken away from our holidays to keep the site going for you guys.

Eh, get off their backs. It's christmas. Maybe they have other things to do this close to christmas, I know I've been one busy bee.

Hope you all are enjoying christmas as much as I am, for once, and hope this lag gets worked out. :3

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

thanks for the heads-up! hopefully it'll be fine when i come on to get my advent stuff & open my stocking. I guess the timing's good though, it keeps us off the computer and doing real life stuff like we should be on christmas.

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

Will we still be able to get the Advent Calender??

Yes, Merry Christmas to all of the Subeta Team.

And thank you for letting us know what was causing the lag! I figured it wasn't anything normal since there were hardly any people on, I just didn't know what -would- cause it.

And eek, thank goodness it didn't lose any data! could only imagine the headaches that would cause

(And: Knock on wood that it -doesn't- lose any data...)

I'll probably just try and pop on whenever possible to collect the Advent prizes and leave it at that. Not sitting here all day playing until you guys get it fixed might actually help a bit.

Well, if it's half hours then it's not too bad
And think about it people, sure everyone will want to be on subeta to send gifts, open stockings, and whatnot. But also on Christmas you'll be spending more time off the computer and doing things in real life.

So don't kill them for the timing.

Thanks for letting us know, and happy holidays, staff

Well I'm sad that there's going to be downtime, but small amounts means it will be possible to get on Subeta sometimes right? I'm looking forward to the stockings opening! ^.^ I'm happy this is being fixed though. I think a little downtime will be worth it. Be sure to have yourselves a good Christmas too though! ;D

I love that you are trying to get rid of the lag, but seriously - What the heck is up with the timing? BAD. Especially since tomorrow we are supposed to have our stockings open up... Oh well. Happy Holidays.
