I have not been able to access spacebattles since late Saturday night. Is anyone else having problems, and if so, do you have any idea what's going on?
 
I could access it some 5-6 hours ago. But not now.
 
Yes.

Probably server troubles.
 
S'been down since 4 hours ago.

I do believe Kier might pay a little bit more attention now.
 
We need a dedicated server. Nothing more really needs to be said.
 
You know when people said things would change once Kier's lawsuit finished this wasn't what I thought would happen. :p

Yeah Xeno won. I'd find the parts in SB which mentioned it but that's a bit hard right now.

For those unaware VBulletin was suing Kier over some code they said he stole from them.

Kier was supposed to start working on the lag problem since the mods and admins were unable to do anything without him.
 
I'm sure there's a perfectly reasonable explanation for this that in no way involves Clockwork Horrors.

...
They've overrun the server room! aaaAAAAAA-

The lawsuit was about IP rights on some of the forum software, IIRC. No direct bearing on SB.
 
Kier's priority right now is xenforo 1.2, then spacebattles. Man has to eat...

In the meanwhile... what did SB's irc run on? Rizon or undernet? I remember #sbcreativewriting only...

same


Which means that right now would be the best time to either update my Quest or start a new one!

Dal.net, #spacebattles, I believe.
 
It's up, curse you auto logout for making me not first to share the news.

Okay?

Entire forum taken down for maybe one picture?
 
Not working for me.

Not even leaving the new tab page =/
 
Up, down. Up, down. Up, down. Up ... down.
It's like an electronic yo-yo, initiated by F5 key.
 
I don't know if this is true. But someone just said that the lag is from so many people visiting the site. Of course I asked a mod about it and they didn't know.
 
I manage to get on the forum just now.

I've kept an eye on the user stats on the front page, pretty much since SB changed over to Xenforo and I can tell you that the lag has nothing to do with the number of visitors. SB has pretty much the same number of viewers 24/7. Between 1000 and 1200. Was like that before the lag started and is still like that now.

So no, visitor count isn't causing the lag on SB.
