Servers damn slow for me

FrostyBoy · July 17, 2002, 19:08

So slow infact, I can even post half the time, it just times out, or I only manage to get half the forum page displayed, and other various problems.

Is it the flag thing? I really hope it's just me, because I do like the flags.

FrustratedPoet · July 17, 2002, 19:26

They seem much slower for me too ... although they're not quite as bad for me as they seem to be for Sn00py.

It started around the same time the flags were introduced, this could just be a coincidence though ... I dunno. However, it is bothersome.

i haven't had a problem since they implemented the flags. oh yeah, and the admins are going to ask you to do a tracert, so you might as well do one now and post the results

It was slow for me last night, but the flags were introduced in the morning (yesterday) and it was fine most of the day.

works ok for me

Jon Shafer · July 18, 2002, 08:39

Once it took me 15 minutes of refreshing the page yesterday to get 'Poly to recognize my edit.

Winston · July 18, 2002, 14:38

Yes, for 4-5 days now, there seems to be a problem when editing posts. It sometimes takes up to 30 seconds to get to the "thanks for posting" screen and another 30 to get back to the thread.

Not a big issue for me, I just open another window and continue from there, but it might indicate something's not quite right with the server or the script itself.

MarkG · July 18, 2002, 14:40

yesterday we had some 500-600 users online with the civ3 patch readme...

Markos: new peak?

I wait for a new peak after PtW

.

Fine speed for me, though,

I think the new peak will come tomorrow with the patch.

Solver · July 18, 2002, 15:10

Ooh, a patch tomorrow? I almost forgot

. On the downside, though, I'll hardly have the time for it tomorrow

Apocalypse · July 18, 2002, 15:19

Tommarow is my birthday and the patch comes out. I'd be happy if I was into Civ3 more and if I liked my birthday.

I'll be getting only one other present aside from the patch.

Anyway, on the topic....the server has seemed slow for awhile. Of course I have a crappy connection so I can't always tell.

New Zealand problem Sn00py???

Mine is attrocious. So bad I don't want to visit poly at the moment.
