Server Problems?

[Unknown Hero]

I have experienced few "crashes" today! I don't know if it's because of my modem or why, but a friend of mine (MarsTheGod66) experienced the same!
So if you admins are uploading something, you could at least do it in another hour than this (started with 19h)! :ranting:

PS why I can't attach images in this (site comments/suggestions) forum?

Anyways, here's (http://www.abandonia.com/~incoming/Unknown%20Hero/asdaf.JPG) the image.

We aren't responsible for this... you are :ok:


To make it short and easy. We got over 35 000 visits yesterday. And we are over 40 000 today. The server we are using now can't handle it.

That is why everyone is having problems. We are just to popular. A new server is needed with this kind of popularity, and we are looking for one that can handle it.


Until then! :w00t: :w00t: :w00t: :w00t:
We are popular! Yay!

How many people live in Iceland?? :blink: Almost 40K?? :crazy:

It's all Puffin's fault! LOL :bleh: LOL

[mouse31e]

I think it's good news. :D

If we need a new server it means we are extremely successful. :D

I wish I needed one for my site. I can probably afford to downsize. :cry:

Lets all keep working to make Abandonia the best! :ok: :ok: :ok:

It has nothing to do with the population of Iceland.

It's all me :sneaky:

Nah... But it's funny though how many Icelanders actually do visit abandonia.

(Nedstat:)
22. Iceland 10643 1.2 %

so.... 10643 visits, that's quite a number from a population of 300.000 :max:



Anyways, great to see how popular Abandonia is, I'm proud to be a part of it :ok:
Keep up da good work, folks!

Sorry, it didn't appear to be posting and then it turns out that happened! :D

Oops. Sorry Admins, thanks for clearing it up! :ok:

EDIT: I think it must have been to do with the server. I got three error messages and then it must have somehow posted them anyway. I don't really know it all got a bit confusing. :blink:

[Kosta]

Well, I have disabled some logging features and hopefully the server will "breathe" more easily now :) Time will tell. In the meanwhile I'm ordering a new server, and changing the database to a much more reliable and stable Postgre! Let's hope that will help!

[Caged]

uh oh, I have gone through that twice on another server, here's hoping everyone has their avvy's and sigs saved, LOL

[wendymaree]

We appreciate the extra effort and expense you're investing, Kosta. :wub:

Like someone else said, we're gonna start serious clicking (on ads) to help you out. :angel:

[wormpaul]

Already doing...

2 times a day :ok:

[Yamcha]

Damn the server gets too little!!!!yesterday i couldn't connect cuz there were to many members online!!!!! :blink: :w00t: The site was loading slow...very slow :yawn:

I get the same message as unkniwn hero

[Kosta]

Ah, yes, the MySQL problems. Well, I got good news considering this as well. I am completely switching from MySQL to PostgreSQL which should be rock solid so these kind of things should not happen again!! :ok:

[wormpaul]

Very nice Kosta...

:kosta: :kosta:
