It would be really cool if forumer can set up proper priorities for it's service maintenance, for example, a recurring server issue should be top priority and meta tags should be furthter down the list... so now we have meta tagz, an arcade and a trading system, be we don't have our forums on Sunday... I dunno, thatz not serious.

Server issue such as server 3's Sunday bug is being constantly overlooked.

That's all I need to say :P Thanks for listening.

bart5986 · 12-18-2005, 09:06 AM

fixing server 3 might be extreemly hard, or he might be waiting for a new server to arrive or something

Limez would fix it as soon as he could.

atsw · 12-18-2005, 09:30 AM

Yeah, I know it might not be easy to fix a server, but as it has been 2 and a half months already, I doubt it does take that long to find a fix a restart issue

**Edwin** · 12-18-2005, 11:40 AM

Here Here! Wonderful idea ATSW, Limez is doing his best but ARCADES are not that vital.

I am sure however that S3 is highest on his priority list

Mark · 12-18-2005, 12:00 PM

Uh.. I don't think it is even on his list @ this point..

I'm sure limez is fully aware of the server 3 issue and is doing something about it right now (probably replacing it). The arcade, trader ratings, meta tags, etc are things that limez is likely doing while dealing with the server 3 issue.

leogeckoaddic · 12-18-2005, 04:06 PM

MYTH: forumers servers are located at limez's house and limez can replace and fix the server issues at will

FACT: forumer pays for the servers they are using, they are no where near limez and he has to rely on their technical team to repair and fix the issue.

example the ip of one of the server3 forums is 67.18.84.202 you goto www.arin.net and search this ip and you get a response of:

OrgName: ThePlanet.com Internet Services, Inc.
OrgID: TPCM
Address: 1333 North Stemmons Freeway
Address: Suite 110
City: Dallas
StateProv: TX
PostalCode: 75207
Country: US

You goto www.theplanet.com and you can see they offer servers for rent.

So this means that limez pays theplanet.com for his hosting. The fact that he is paying X ammount of money for a server that goes down every weekend is amazing, but i am sure that if he tried to get on a different server it would be a big pain to move all of those forums over there, not to mention those who have domains pointing to the dns ip may also have problems as well.

**stylus** · 12-18-2005, 04:10 PM

It's probably best to just sit tight with this one, atsw.
I'm sure Limez understands that server 3 is running into problems and will fix it when he gets enough time.

Regards,
stylus

bart5986 · 12-18-2005, 09:33 PM

Thats strange, the planet is a very good data center, my web host uses their servers.

I think we need limez in here to tell us exactly whats gone wrong.

No no no no, not true, The Planet also SELLS servers so Limez might have bought them actually!

And he has fixed the issue in the past instantly, there was a Sunday when s3 died, Limez was online at the time, saw our threads, replied in a couple of them and restarted the server, he said "I fixed that for you, it shouldbe working fine now"... so that means he has access to the servers, at least s3

bart5986 · 12-19-2005, 12:52 AM

I doubt it, he most likely told his tech crew to fix it.

If it was at his house... what would happen if he has a blackout or something :P

atsw · 12-19-2005, 12:58 AM

Here's a link:

Check posts #2, #3 & #6... how can he call his tech crew at 3 o'clock in the morning???

bart5986 · 12-19-2005, 02:15 AM

My host works 24/7 so I don't see why the planet wouldn't.

Well, if you follow the posts you'll see that everything got resolved in 3 minutes...

I have my doubts that one can call tech staff at 3 o'clock in the morning and they fix everything in just 3 minutes, obviously everything depends on a push of a button...

The Planet's HQs are in Texas, my observations show that forumer (Limez) residents on the west coast.

+ If the problem was at TP I'm sure they'd have resloved it by now.
