[quote name='DarkRaptor' timestamp='1345064642' post='120183'] yes i'm having issues with CloudFare, and from what i've seen (on the mood panel and on chat) many people is having issues. 1. The CloudFare system seems to be not working correctly, it "marks" the MD server as unavailable when it is not the case.. 2. When i'm editing a legit mdscript i sometimes have to type challenge words.. because CloudFare flags my submit as a attacker?! 3. [b]One of the CloudFare annouced "features" is : speed you site.. LOL i just wonder how by adding a (non cached) layer will Ever speed a one server site!?[/b] maybe i'm too old school..or maybe i just don't like when some work is done and things get worst for the players.. anyway.. please close this. [/quote] Read how Cloudflare works, it does cache the site... css and images can easily be cached, not to mention the static main page plus any other pages that can be cached...

[quote name='BFH' timestamp='1344973843' post='120126'] I explained all of that to him Chew. In chat [/quote] yet you left incorrect and worrying information on the forum when you knew others would likely see the error and be worried by your scaremongering... its just... bad...

[quote name='J-D' timestamp='1344971065' post='120122'] So MD thinks I have a virus on my computer but my antivirus doesn't? That's a new one... [/quote] Your computer is fine [quote name='BFH' timestamp='1344971696' post='120124'] Most of the people with viruses on their pcs have an antivirus software. Don't sleep by that side Just request access. [/quote] true, but thats not what cloudflare is doing, read the actual page BFH... Something in his papers triggered the alert and to cloudflare it looks like a bot... the only way that cloudflare could know/think you have a virus on your computer was that if it was sending out data to a cloudflare network that looked like virus data. AKA exactly whats its saying, it thinks your forum submission is a virus sending back data or attacking MagicDuel
-
yeah it seems resolved now... no clue what it was, cloudflare was doing some funky stuff
-
forum is on a completely different server not managed by murry, forum breaks, its forums fault
-
odd... its giving me tons of cloudflare "this page is down" errors, which appear annnoyingly in alertboxes as it attempts to load chat... yrth confirmed it for me that its loading slowly... PS: and if you didn't realise my posts above were multiple, but forum helpfully merges them lol
-
Works very slowly until a repeated attack of: [CODE] <magicduel.com> Error: SyntaxError Err description: undefined Err number: undefined Err message: at index 0: expected expression, got '<' Ajax response: <!DOCTYPE HTML> <html lang="en-US"> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> <meta charset="UTF-8"> <title>Website is currently unreachable</title> <link rel="stylesheet" media="screen" href="/cdn-cgi/cache-err/error.css" /> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.cloudflare.com/cdn-cgi/nexp/v=1/obcheck.min.js"></script> </head> <body> <table width="100%" height="100%" cellpadding="30"> <tr> <td align="center" valign="center"> <img src="/cdn-cgi/cache-err/exclamation.png" /> <h1>This website is offline</h1> <p>No cached version is available</p> <table align="center" width="800"> <tr> <td colspan="3"> <h2>What's wrong?</h2> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <h3>The most likely causes:</h3> <ul> <li>The server is down for maintenance</li> <li>There may be a network problem</li> <li>The site may be experiencing excessive load</li> </ul> </td> <td width="4%"> </td> <td align="center" valign="middle"> <div id="bigCallsToAction"> <span class="bigCallsToAction-item"> <a href="#" onclick="removeOB_CF542();window.location.reload();return false;" class="callToAction callToAction-big">Retry for a live version of the site<span></span></a> </span> </div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3"> <h2>What's CloudFlare?</h2> <p>This website uses CloudFlare in order to help keep it online when the server is down by serving cached copies of pages when they are unavailable.

ask the treasury for sponsership, sieg is complaining no one asks him for sponsorship atm
-
reload the page, and/or clear cache. I notice someone turned on the monstrosity that is cloudflare again... didn't we learn the issues we had last time... on a side note, have fun being an alt of everyone using the cloudflare... on a side side note my magicduel webmail isn't working...

[quote name='BFH' timestamp='1344625860' post='119784'] That's true. So what can we do Chew? I'll follow this post with a total general summary of all the discussions. It should be up in the following hours. [/quote] Clearly we should do what i think because i am always right and know the best -------------------------- Disclaimer: The above comment is sarcasm, if you do not understand what this word means please search for it, if you still cannot comprehend the concept ignore the above, the following post is perfectly normal. -------------------------- Everyone can say they know best, and it should be done like this, but in the end no one has the right to say it should be done this way except murry, as its his game. You can easily select any cross,section of MD, and provide reasons why their specific group or section should choose how it should be done to be perfectly honest. If you want my personal view, i feel that the tutorial should be largely planned out by the newer people in the realm, with advice coming from the vets who know all the rules and other reasons "Why" MD does things like it does. Its simple for a new player to say, this doesnt make sense, when they havent experianced MD enough to know it does actually. But this such a point would point out that something needs to be moved somewhere else or explained better.
-
The most popular option is not nesscarily the correct one? Im sure most people would love a morph or twelve, but giving everyone them isnt a good idea.
-
i would suggest these issues are sent directly to grido, as there should be a lho there all the time
-
if we killed all the stats from storymode in mp3, then it could be done pretty quickly, maybe mention right at the start its "background info" thats not nesscary, or something along the lines of "this is a make your own adventure" part, like the old books.
-
talk to grido about english language spelling issues.
-
The most efficient is trading multiple items at a time but Mur has already said he won't implement this...
-
Talk with Bfh about getting done, he is the advertiser.

[quote name='The MoM' timestamp='1344199143' post='119350'] are they STILL players? if so then I misunderstood, but since it was Mur's announcement interpreted by chewy... well then, it would be an honest mistake plus, if they still ARE players, then what's to make sure that they don't 'help themselves' I know that's stupid, I didn't really mean it, I know they wouldn't, but that's the logical thinking pattern I followed to reach the conclusion that they're not current players. [/quote] Dont bring me into your misunderstanding, i havent spoken to you before... show me where i was interpreting please [quote name='The MoM' timestamp='1344199143' post='119350'] true. I can't judge this since I just showed up. Before, Mur was in charge. I'll have to wait and see. [/quote] All this sounds like is "Iv come back, something has changed and i do not like it, i shall complain" quite honestly without actually spending some time to see the "new" [quote name='The MoM' timestamp='1344199143' post='119350'] unfortunately I just missed your summer festival quest... I really got pissed... but my point was that a lot of quests can only be solved by vets. some, I agree, are good for all, poems, pictures, etc... but some, are targeted at higher level players. And usually that's where most of the 'good' prizes are located I'm not saying some don't exist for other types, but that the majority are for this. [/quote] You clearly did not even spend a minute looking at the summer festival, nor many of the recent quests, summer festival had quests where ANYONE could participate, please dont look misinformed in your statements... [quote name='The MoM' timestamp='1344199143' post='119350'] b/w every other thing in this thread, and a lot has been said, this is my main point... there aren't many mp3s out there... this will solve many, many, MANY things... [/quote] Go on then, you go and fix it [quote name='The MoM' timestamp='1344199143' post='119350'] it's not that I'm being offensive, but that's not my point... actually, we're on the same side here... change will happen, it should, but I'm not talking about the place i'm talking about the lack of MP3s... sparring grounds is where they are usually located, their lack there is their lack almost everywhere... that's what I meant. and at that time, that was the most populated scene by MP3s in the realm... I'm sorry if I seemed offensive or such Sasha... [/quote] Quite frankly, you seem misinformed and offensive towards people, you seem to have got an idea into your head "that there are lacking MP3's" and have wandered around as many points as you can think of blaming them. Quests, Council, Eon, Awiiya, Heads Contest... the list goes on
-
Have you considered that Mur specifically didnt implement trading multiple items over at once, so that people would have to trade coins one at a time? I cannot repeat his reasoning for this, for i cannot remember it, but this would go against that reasoning.

[quote name='The MoM' timestamp='1344180147' post='119322'] okay, I maybe way over my head here, but, is it really difficult to change him/her? I've done my research, and I know what I'm saying, it's not as absurd as it first sounds. the new player will be an RPC, hence he has to be trustworthy and not abuse his powers, he also has to prove himself, and the council has to approve him etc... but in my point of view, almost any reliable person will do a better job than an almost always inactive one. I read somewhere in the forums that there was a new guy who is drachorn master, but he was too inactive to do the job well... and now chewy just confirmed this... maybe they don't want to switch so easily to a 'temperory' person, maybe they want to find the perfect one directly? or maybe they think that's not as big a change as what they're implementing... again, I might be saying something that's totally absurd to some of you vets, for I've never seen the process of picking new RPCs, but... 5 weeks till the new citizenship feature, won't getting a new master be faster? forget faster, simpler? and it'll also have an impact, many people (believe me you) would rush to try to solve the quest, he/she puts in store. even if not for the prize. If this sounds absurd, I'm sorry I mentioned it. [/quote] Said person lost their alliance once, it was given back and they have done nothing, Essentially their role had faded into the background of inactivity. As for randomly giving a role out, yeah lets just randomly give everyone roles... Since they were given the alliance back, they clearly were in favour to request and get the alliance back. I would doubt they would get it back a second time if they were to request it back, but then i questioned why they got it back in the first place because they were inactive before they lost it. [quote name='The MoM' timestamp='1344180147' post='119322'] (offtopic) re-opening... I wonder how people would react to that... [/quote] MD has been a lot more inactive than this, and its "activity" changes, at one point "active" was lots of people grinding at GGG.
-
[quote name='The MoM' timestamp='1344177075' post='119320'] but did he give the council authority over all matters MD? I'm not saying that's a bad thing. I don't know if it is or isn't, but it's one of those changes that actually changes nothing, but changes a lot. [/quote] yes he did. It changes thigns quite a lot... Your contradiction is plain wrong. [quote name='The MoM' timestamp='1344177075' post='119320'] burns, chew, dst, you've all been here for some time, and I don't think you'll leave anytime soon, but tell me, change is inevitable, I know, and we all agree here, that almost all changes Mur makes are for the best of MD, even if we don't see it that way, but I'm somewhat having a hard time understanding some of them, eventhought it might not be my right to 'question the system' [/quote] No, those who idolize Mur and put him on a pedestal will claim that all his actions he does are perfect and great. They arnt. Mur is a human like anyone else and he makes mistakes like anyone else. However he has the right to say that he wants the game to move in X direction, even if people disagree with it. [quote name='The MoM' timestamp='1344177075' post='119320'] for example, I know that smartAlekRJ used to be drachorn master, and he used to reward drachorns for quests... right now, they cost a fortune to get one, 16 gold and up. [/quote] I would point out that there is a player that has the ability to give these items out, but they are exceptionally inactive and i havent seen them in a while. [quote name='The MoM' timestamp='1344177075' post='119320'] angiens, eventhough less rare, are a dream for most MP3s... and the annoying this about it is this : they cost a lot of AP to level up and become useful.. that was good! it taught people patience! right now, almost all angiens are old enough to be directly upgraded, but here's the catch, not anyone can get them, oh no... you have to buy them I say angiens are less rare because I've seen many people give them out for quests, Maebius for instance, buys all the ones he can find and gives them all out, sponsoring them, but is there no way a person can get them himself anymore? [/quote] Yes you can get them, see below. [quote name='The MoM' timestamp='1344177075' post='119320'] the closing of the angien's shrine, I might agree with (eventhough I don't know why), and I will agree with. (maybe it was abused? I trust Mur) but the drach lair is closed only because no master appeared or since the old one didn't leave the key, or or or... [/quote] Angiens shrine was closed by petition of the MB people. One person has access and has the ability to take people there. Again, its not impossible to get them, in addition to drachorns as i have mentioned. You can get both creatures if you try. However for the drachs i feel a new guardian needs to be chosen since the current is hideously inactive. [quote name='The MoM' timestamp='1344177075' post='119320'] the idea that it's summer , well I agree with that. less traffic, but as far as demographics go if the mortality rate is higher than the birth rate, the country is in some trouble (well, in most cases, China excluded for example) also, and this troubles me a little, a lot of MP3s are no longer doing anything alone! ie, a burst? they directly get the answer, without trying and guessing. beating the guards? people lend a hand and provide a spell... I asked for a cast a few days ago from a friend. he said no, and he was right, I shouldn't get into LR like that, after all, how will I learn anything about it? I was just jealous that those who probably knew less than me about rituals went in faster... spoilers spoil the fun, they don't seem to get it though [/quote] I see the game in its current state as very much "beta" you could prettymuch close MD and work on it getting it into a more "workable" state, and re-open it again. You are all testers for the first stage. Many things need a lot of work to bring it up to a properly playable game. Combat has went through numerous stages and still hasnt reached one with the initial idea of "anyone can beat anyone" [quote name='The MoM' timestamp='1344177075' post='119320'] amd Rumi, I also knew Marvolo, and I also miss him, no one should leave MD due to 'boredom' or such, MD's just too enthralling... I wonder what happened.... [/quote] Thats a tad foolish, people get bored of stuff, they move on. I find MD immensively interesting from a point of view that few others will share, people get different things from MD.
-
in addition to what dst says, i could name numerous people you would have never heard of that naturally left the game.

[quote name='tankfans' timestamp='1340990372' post='116264'] AUCTION CLOSED. #8 and #14 goes to apophys for 0 SC.

[/quote] [quote name='The MoM' timestamp='1344022977' post='119163'] I know that the auction is closed, but is there a chance I can still buy any of the creatures? I mean it's been a month, so it can't be 'reopening a dead post, right?' [/quote] its been closed, make a private inquiry. If you are unsure, ask a mod and dont post.

[quote name='The MoM' timestamp='1344021030' post='119157'] for some reason, I'm sure my good-intended actions will be precieved as otherwise, but : I'm guessing this topic was kept open until the bidders pay up... well, I got excited, and then, not... so I suppose this topic should be closed? [/quote] dont bump threads like this a year after they have last been posted on, closed
