Server too busy..


Recommended Posts

yes i got 3 the server is busy messages while trying to see this thread...

this is getting tiresome but i love the site and won't abandon it

just think that something should be done...

Neowin is a such famous site and run by brilliant amateurs that AFAIK are paid no money

when is Hostyme gonna stop being so cheap cases and give Neowin another server ?!

Do not go rubbishing our sponsor please. Without their generosity we would not be here right now. Hosttyme's support has been nothing short of incredible. You have to credit them that.

As for server probs, i don't think the amount of visitors is actually the problem guys. It doesnt add up. Something else is surely wrong i'm guessing. We'll keep you informed I am sure.

yes you are probably right...

it isn't because of the amount of visitors but that screens yesterday sure caused server probs

i have seen probs occuring with 400+ ppl on the boards and also with 100 ppl

it's very strange indeed and i hope it gets discovered soon and fixed

also,

Sorry! The administrator has specified that users can only post one message every 45 seconds.

sorry, i was messing...

and that limit is in place to keep two things from happening:

-spamming

-server overload.

sorry, just wait and take the extra time to add to a quality post :D

Woohoo! Been trying to get onto the forum all day long.

Just keep getting "server busy" message.

Are we any closer to getting this situation solved??

i think we all should chip in and buy Neowin a new server, because this is getting crazy.

Good luck and thanks to all the admins and mods or whoever is working to get this fixed, because i want my normal neowin back! :D

P.S. Redmak/Neobond, couldn't we just do a system restore to when before all these problems started?? :p hehe. j/k i'm not that stupid :ponder:

I can't even do a search...Hope this gets resolved soon. It started for me last night and I thought it was because of the msn thing, but that has gone away and still server too busy.....:ermm:

i'm serious about the money part, i know i would give, but a lot of people won't, just like the t-shirt thread. There were a lot of responces to get a Neowin t-shirt, but when it came to business, only about 10 people ordered.

Redmak or Neobond, how can i give you money to use for neowin??

LOL guys

it's not a bad idea that collect deal

there are at least 2k or 3k very active members and if about 1k contributed 5$ Neowin would have more than enough money for a new server...

what do you think ?

i wouldn't mind giving 5 or 10 ?s at all!

I JUST WANT MY NEOWIN BACK!!!!! :mad:

again, as the annoucement has said: we ARE working on it.

we don't need your money, we're getting our hosting for free :)

we've also identified TWO possible ways to fix or at least aid the problem. hopefully, one of them (more mysql tweaking) will be effective, and the other (new forum software :D ) will be at least partially beneficial.

no more details than that. the mysql tweaks will probably go into effect tomrrow sometime, so we'll see how things are in a day or two...
