Welcome back :) Glad to see you got things sorted :D

Forums seem to be running a lot better, I'm assuming the wait was because you had to find a third option and were waiting for accounts etc to be set up? Just a guess.

I think all that downtime was worth it. The forums are much faster and more responsive than before, almost as good as they used to be on the gamespy server. :)
Seriously? The site's slow as hell now for me.

Perhaps I spoke too soon. :p It has slowed down quite remarkably since I last came here 45 minutes ago. Maybe it was going fast earlier due to low activity, as most people probably don't yet know that the place is back up.

Our current server is located in London, last one was located somewhere in USA.

 
That should only matter somewhere around 300ms for the entire page. Right now, I'm seeing stuff load very slow, with seperate posts showing up one pr two at a time.

Just a word of caution, do not use same passwords in the penguinbomb forums as you use here. Just in a case. :p

the case of you being an inflammatory idiot ever since you got your administrative promotion?

oooooooh BURN!

Ahem.

Anyway, good to have the place back.

The feeling is mutual.

 
Finally it's back!  The speed seems okay to me.

 Slow as hell for me too. But that might be my 56k taking.

My god that was a long ass time. What took you guys so long to get the lights back on. Just imagine being on a Arcadia station, and the power goes out, sitting in ur small room in the dark for days. Thats what this feels like to me.

We're still having various issues, but we hope to be able to resolve them without having to move again. ;)

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

No moving is necessary. All issues we might have at the moment, or will have, will be resolvable. Unlike with the last server where we couldn't do anything. This is our playground. ;7

We just got everything into working condition, now it is only a matter of hunting down problems and fixing one problem at a time. Its good to have 3250 beta testers. :D

Which may mean more downtime as we play with the server. Still... :p

Since a few of you have complained that the forums are pretty slow, I have tweaked apache a bit (hence the 5 min downtime a moment ago). Is there a change for better or worse or still the same?

A little better perhaps, but there's still noticable lag in loading a page.  Not 100% sure why, though; it may just be an issue with this board software.
