Server Connection Timeouts

[DarkRaptor]

Not really a bug but a server problem.

Since yesterday MD server started to respond Very slowly and with many connection timeouts, making the MD experience almost completely unplayable.

Although this morning the server looked like was performing in a almost regular way, for the last hours the performance have deteriorated again.

I've checked with other players and all reported the same issues.


1. connection timeout pages
2. scenes locked with "receiving vars..." msg
3. empty players list
4. empty / lag / ignored text on chat

I have noticed similar, both in Firefox 6, IE8, and Chrome.
Most notably when trying to look at any popups (PM mail, Annoucnements, Adventure Log, etc)

Yup. Homepage won't even load for me now. hm..

edit: actually, it will... just very, very slowly.

its unplayable for me for these reasons, hopefully they can be resolved so regular MD'in can resume.

I confirm having the same problem, also with Safari.

[Quas]

Same problems to me, any browser

[cutler121]

Yup, having the same problems everyone else is describing. Hopefully its not another DDOS attack on the server.

[Yrthilian]

page not loading at all now

[smartalekrj]

same issues here... thought it was me... glad it's not

[Kiley]

same here too..IE and Firefox

[Chewett]

Everyone is having issues, its a server issue, not anything with your browser. If anyone hears anything offical aka from mur as to the reason then please post it, otherwise there is no point peolpe saying "oh i have this issue" when its serverwide, thanks
