Heavily degrading mainsite response. (server processing?)

There's a difference between admins like Cerbrus and the admins who work on the technical side of things that could actually fix the problem being discussed.

If Yak was in here correcting spelling, then that would be wasting time.

Yak wouldn't correct spelling, he'd just throw people into a woodchipper.

Just calm down and evaluate. As it's been said not every admin here works on the technical side. I'd expect your kind of response from a teenager, not a person who is nearing his thirties. :/

No way, kissing ass is my highest priority. I dream of becoming a mod one day.

Technical? I didn't say any thing about admins having to do anything with the technical side of things. My point was that the post (http://forums.furaffinity.net/threa...processing-)?p=2814281&viewfull=1#post2814281) had no point to it at all. If you don't agree then tell me what the point of the post was.

Oh? So at 29 I'm not allowed to have an opinion or express it how I wish?

Evaluate.
Cerbrus is a support admin, not a tech admin. His time is better spent (asskissing) moderating typos then trying to work on something he knows nothing about.

The admins delete/infract regular users' "pointless" posts, and then make their own. It reeks of hypocrisy.

The performance issue has been acknowledged main site for a bit now and I was wondering if any of the tech-people found anything. It seems to come and go and I remember seeing a mod in the forums mention some people "abusive scraping", is that still the case? It just doesn't seem to have any reason behind it, click a submission and it loads fine, then click fav or leave a comment a few seconds later and it takes half a minute to regenerate the page.

Personally, I find the fickleness more annoying than just slow performance, at least you can anticipate and accommodate for the slowness. More curious than anything really.

Question here. Has it already been passed the week they said there would be unplanned maintenance? Or was this a typo for unplanned maintenance in the coming week"s"?

There should be an announcement about maintenance shortly, there will be downtime. I dont want to step on Yaks toes (and I dont know 100% for sure exactly what will be done or what it will fix) so I'll leave it at that.

I just want to say yeah I've noticed it (especially right now) but I wish whoever working on it luck in fixing it. It always amazes me the extreme rudeness I see when things like this happen to a site that is free to use. I can only imagine how rude some people get about things they actually pay for.

Thanks for working on this site and helping to keep it running! I apologize if I'm just adding to spam here but I just wanted to add something more positive after reading so much negative feedback.

Pretty much this. We've been waiting for "unscheduled maintenance in the upcoming week" for like two weeks now. It's obviously not a priority for the technical staff or it would have been scheduled and fixed already.

It's also a matter of finding the right people that won't treat a site with 5 million plus submissions and enough members to fill a small country like it's a hobby project that doesn't require constant attention.

Right, no idea if it's supposed to go here or make a new thread, but hey, I got nothing better to do while repeatedly refreshing.

I'm getting Error 503 messages -constantly-. And have been for the past month or so, it's worse at night GMT-0 time, but appears to actually be getting worse (opened 10 pictures today, ALL 503'ed, last week only half would have)


Oh, and Cerberus, you realise that if the coding is so bad is causes notable issues with the site, then fixing that coding will be visible? namely in seeing the site behave as it should.


P.S I though Abusive Scrapers were some kind of bug living in the hardware :rolleyes:

Are you sharing an internet connection with somebody else who might be using FA at the same time? Or using a proxy? Who is your Internet Service Provider?

Yeah, Yak, when submissions in the inbox come in 6-image rows, maybe limiting simultaneous connections to half that wasn't the best idea ever? I can understand wanting to cut down on the connections as a quickfix for people abusing the site, but I really don't think wanting to be able to open a full row of images at once with snaplinks is too much to ask.

Will this be fixed with/after the maintenance?

Or you could just make your browser skinnier so that your submissions line up in three row columns instead. (and no errors on this end, except minor slowdowns at what I assume is peak times. Kentucky must naturally just be amazing.)
