Myersjessee Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Is anyone else going through periods of not being able to connect? I've noticed between my home machine, work machine, and IPhone (all different networks) reguarly at least one can get in, but all seem to go through extended periods of timing out in the forums. Just wondering if I have a bad link, DNS, or something else. Is it just me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uxi Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Looks like about an hour today? Made me double post. Wasn't sure if it was local so tried on my N97 and then iPhone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dobber Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Been happening to me as well pretty frequently on 5 different machines I have access to. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nied Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Another one just now for a good hour. I just left MW loading in one tab while browsing elsewhere, and you can go a good long time without getting any kind of timeout error. Though at one point I did get an IPS driver error. They're like slow storms, you just have to wait for them to blow over and then everything is nice again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 I'll check the drives (last time we had some errors), and run some checks on the db this weekend. Again, I think it just boils down to the limitations of the ISAM format we are running. Locking entire tables for adding a post, when there are a lot of users doing the same, is probably leading to contention issues-and then everyone just times out. I just have to sit down and convert us to INNODB and be done with it all once and for all. I've let it carry on far too long. Time to clear out a weekend schedule this month...

David Hingtgen Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Anyone else think things were a lot better this week? (though this post will probably jinx it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bri Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Yea, it was a lot better this week, though still some time outs but much less then before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sketchley Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Up until this past week, I haven't been experiencing time-outs. This week, there was a bunch. It seems that the problem has simply shifted to a different time period... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dio Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 That's kinda funny, because just this week it has been going horribly slow for me, and prior to that everything was working fine. Everything's loading slowly for me right now, in fact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mog Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Same thing for me. The site was getting moody for me around 6am to 7am PST today, taking forever to load. Usually when the site's running slow and I'm trying to access the main forum page, I see some "Downloading [something, something, something] .png" in the status bar. Not sure if it's related to the current problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Hingtgen Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Yeah, if anything, it's always that one .png file that never finishes loading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nied Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 I've recently switched over to Chrome as my primary browser, and I'm noticing slowdowns with it that I don't see via Firefox. Literally I can load two pages side by side and Chrome will hang where Firefox doesn't. I don't know if it's related or just an issue with Chrome.

Dangaioh Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Wow... I am also having that same problem, MW Forums would hang on IE8 and Firefox. When these is no lag, IE8 loads decently, but Firefox seems to lag, especially when loading images. This began almost 2 weeks ago for me.

sketchley Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Yesterday (that'd be 2010.03.13 JST; same for all following times), Macrossworld was not accessible for the following periods: 11:00~12:30. The log in page, as well as main forum index would load. But the recent posts and any of the sub-forums would not open (thus giving the impression that the problem was related to the database and not the site in general). 21:00: able to access the website and content. However, there was a delay "significantly" longer than normal during the initial accessing of the site and the recent posts. 24:00+ unable to access the website (the endless loading of death. The "unable to access website" prompt didn't appear. Today (that's 14:00): no problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sketchley Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 It happened again, yesterday, in the 22:00 to 25:00 time frame (all times JST). >.< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sketchley Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Arrgh! Still happening. 21:00 to 23:00 (thereabouts) tonight. And even then, it's taking a rediculously long time to load pages. >.< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper Shinchan Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 Today (23/03) from at least 17:45 to around 18:10 CET; I could acces the website, the main page of the forum and my control panel but not the subforum sections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
