Zander 85 Posted February 7, 2009 Well, my lag issues that i have had are gone, site loads fine now.. but... I get that like 7/10 times coming here Share this post Link to post
TheRing 43 Posted February 7, 2009 yeah, i'm not sure what that is. Maybe people are attempting to upload large files? Share this post Link to post
XGhozt 410 Posted February 7, 2009 I decided that it was better to do that than to have the entire site go offline for a while. That nice little feature does a good job of keeping the server from overloading on occasion. Share this post Link to post
Cripp 167 Posted February 7, 2009 Witch means, Stop trying the site still is having problems. Come back later. Ghozt when is the lag gonna be fixed. It really is a pain in the ass to access the site. Share this post Link to post
Major Zhuinden 128 Posted February 7, 2009 witch??? Anyways I agree, this is horribly annoying. What the heck is going on, you didn't have this shit 3 years ago. Share this post Link to post
Speedskater 167 Posted February 7, 2009 I get it every 30 minutes or so. Share this post Link to post
Zander 85 Posted February 7, 2009 @Cripp... there really isn't lag anymore.. but at this point i'd rather have it... at least i can get in the site that way. Share this post Link to post
XGhozt 410 Posted February 7, 2009 Another site hosted on the same server is getting hit with a dos attack. It's not "lag" and it's not a matter of fixing it. It's a matter of keeping that site online and preventing the server from going offline. Every once and a while it slips through our firewalls and causes a high load on the server. Once that load get's to a certain point.. Ghoztcraft locks out people for a few moments until the load goes back down. If we don't lock down the busy sites during this, than the load doesn't go down, it get's worse. And if it get's too worse before myself or an admin get's to it. We then have so much time down time and such a high server load that I then start to financially take a hit, to which case, I sometimes need to reboot the server. Now, we're of course making an effort to stop this, but they haven't stopped attacking us.. and trust me, it's much more annoying for me, than it is for you. Share this post Link to post
Zar 696 Posted February 7, 2009 I think someone needs to upgrade to a better server. :P Share this post Link to post
Major Zhuinden 128 Posted February 7, 2009 Why are they getting DoSed anyways? Share this post Link to post
Cripp 167 Posted February 7, 2009 It boggles my mind it shouldn't matter what sever is running the sites. If one is getting attacked it should not affect the other sites running on it. Vice versa too! I agree with zar time for a sever upgrade. Share this post Link to post
ApocoLypTus 14 Posted February 7, 2009 Yeh i just joined and im like... Hmmm is this site messed or is it my Browser >.> Share this post Link to post

Speedskater 167 Posted February 8, 2009 When I clicked this topic I got the board message >< Share this post Link to post
Kenshyn 638 Posted February 8, 2009 I haven't received that message in ages, and the lag is mostly gone. Only thing left is to clean up the forums a bit (as far as I know), which is my job that I am currently procrastinating. :P Share this post Link to post
XGhozt 410 Posted February 8, 2009 We are on a high end server and we don't need to upgrade. I swear to god.. I'm -reping the next person that says that shit. And we're not dying, look how many people are on the fucking online list. I'm working on getting the other site online, but every time I turn on the site it causes the server to freak out. So.. just bare with me in the meantime. Share this post Link to post
