Darigan Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 Hi, My name is Darigan and I have lag. How are you all tonight and what are you up to while waiting for the page or part of the scene to load.
Mya Celestia Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 [color="#8B0000"][font="Palatino Linotype"]This is the third night in a row of severe lag for me. It starts about 4:00 server. I cannot open pm's, fight, get the chat to load, or load menu pages. It took 2 hours to move from the Archives to the Paper Cabin. Worse in IE than FF but still there. I'm concerned about this and the impact it could be having on new players that may not be able to log in or move on.[/font][/color]
BFH Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 I'm suffering also, third night happening. It's because of servers upgrade or updates? Hope this get better soon BFH
pamplemousse Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 Issue for me too. And it seems to be at the same time every day, like Mya said. *edit* Also, the blasted multiple windows screen has been coming up more and more frequently in the past 3 days, as well.
Curiose Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 I think it's safe to say that everyone in MD is facing the lag. I have it too, but it's not too terrible for myself, but the lag is still there.
Fyrd Argentus Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 Been all day long for 3 days. Log on, move two or three sceens, try to do a sacc, it disconnects.
Metal Bunny Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 I haz no lag. I can haz fun at other people's expense? Or it 2 cruel? Yoshi 1
Fyrd Argentus Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 Ah, but do you actually try to move around, MB? I was worried that you might have rusted in place.
dragonrider7 Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 I am facing terrible lag.......It seems my dragon is flying through a heavy sandstorm :-) -rider
Kamisha Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 I agree it might be becouse the server isnt being looked after with mur away. Also we have often had problems with the server company. They actually wipped the MD records accedently once (luckly they were backed up). This isnt the first time we have exsperanced this and I can assure you it isnt the last.

[/quote] Wtf BS is this? a server isnt like a child, it doesnt suddently not work, it doesnt need constant attention. There has been very little issues with this server company, they sseem pretty decent and the uptime is MUCH better compared with some others i know. You might be surprised... but its because people are using md... therefore it gets slower... apophys 1
dst Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 I will quote Chewy : "The only issue with the server is Mur " That's because when the "records were deleted" it was Mur who pushed the wrong button So please stop spreading rumors. And who said Mur is away? Just because he made that announcement? Pff...again..rumors!
Kamisha Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 Oh sry had a look at the past statment. Ya he did press a wrong button. Then about the server matinence thing I frogot that only paid games do that in order to update there stores for they make millions. I frogot this game is actually hardly supported by the players that pay (sry I mean no offence to anybody when I say this although it sounds really bad I know). Though I still beleve mur is at least less active then he was previously.
Darigan Posted October 1, 2010 Author Report Posted October 1, 2010 and yet when Murs away we have all these new announcements dealing with all these things that people are having issues with...new wp item for balance new organization of adepts, ect.... If he is around he's gotten his mojo back and is making progress and rendril is doing a good job too...or is it all just Ren?
Kamisha Posted October 4, 2010 Report Posted October 4, 2010 Well actually it couldn't be ren because everything ren does is signed with an r at the bottom. The faded messages are automated though.
lightsage Posted October 4, 2010 Report Posted October 4, 2010 My guess is we're seeing (or maybe that's my imagination) object oriented errors rather than the old kind due to what rendril (I think we already had/have a ren...) has done. [quote] You might be surprised... but its because people are using md... therefore it gets slower... [/quote] Time to invite your friends to play, once server freezes a server upgrade will be unavoidable Of course donating heaps will probably help, too. I should defiantly check sometime at 4.00 AM servertime, only problem is that it's 3.00 AM for me :/ But I doubt it's worse than back when it was busy and HC was going on. You'd hit if it took ages, you knew you got the heads. Close the combat screen, run and than see how you actually got your victory later No insane lag usually meant no heads... When finances are plentiful, servers are set up with enough overhead to be able to handle peak times easily. I don't think MD has those finances (or perhaps coding optimizations are in progress and for now it's worse than before...) Either way, same as usual: Try to get more players, have fun and donate to help MD
Rendril Posted October 5, 2010 Report Posted October 5, 2010 The lag shouldn't be from the changes. There is something much more afoot. As for the work in the announcements...who knows

[/quote] Assuming you know that OOP is merely another paradigm of programming what in specifc are "OOP Errors"? since they are a paradigm they would just be called errors...
lightsage Posted October 5, 2010 Report Posted October 5, 2010 I meant errors as a consequence of OOP... Like, if you get an error "User-class Error: 1===User not found L:" rather than something like "This user doesn't exist" I would assume that's a consequence of a transition to users becoming an object. Of course, I'm no longer certain back when the other error appeared... It might not be recent at all.
Darigan Posted October 5, 2010 Author Report Posted October 5, 2010 users are becoming objects? O_o Pipstickz and apophys 1 1
Laphers Posted October 5, 2010 Report Posted October 5, 2010 [quote name='Darigan' timestamp='1286306652' post='69717'] users are becoming objects? O_o [/quote] I object to being objectified.
The Great Pashweetie Posted October 23, 2010 Report Posted October 23, 2010 the laggg is utterly horrible most of the time its so bad i either freeze or cant even access the website.
Pipstickz Posted October 23, 2010 Report Posted October 23, 2010 That's most likely a problem with your computer or software or something like that, seeing as MD runs fine for me (until my laptop gets hotter >.<)
Kyphis the Bard Posted October 23, 2010 Report Posted October 23, 2010 I've still never had lag on MD outside of when I use up all my internet.
