CCShadow Wrote: Actually, we are a dedicated host. In fact, your $89 a month is not even close to what I pay for this server. Unfortunately, the current version of the system that is running MKO takes up a lot of memory and buying more is currently out of question. I am hoping to make some optimization changes sometime soon that should help it get a little better. As for the pop-ups, there is no code on this website that causes pop-ups, so I'd suggest running an AdWare/SpyWare program as I think you may have one or more installed.

Ok, well I was actually defending MKO with my post.
I also just was assuming that it was shared hosting rather than dedicated. Obviously I am wrong. I also didn't go into the pricing into too much detail, I was just looking at the basic dedicated hosting for your webhost because the specs and traffic seemed like an awful lot for that basic plan.

Anyway, I will do another scan for ad/spyware. I just thought that it was strange that it only pops up for MKO and no other site.

Cheers...

That's what I always look like. I fail to see how it was supposed to "offend" me.

MKSECRETS Wrote: Raiden_is_god Wrote: Now I have a question for you MODS and the Owners. Ok now these system busy stuff are getting annoying. Now you all have been saying its because of the memory. Now wouldn't it make sense to delete all pointless threads that have been closed. Also you could delete the really old ones like the ones that would get closed if they were bumped. Why let them be there for no reason. If someone would bump them you would just close them. This could help the site out I believe. Explain this to me, PLEASE: You say the "Server is Busy" message is annoying. You're telling the mods to get rid of all the old threads (which they sort of did already with the archives). You're also telling them to delete the closed threads. If memory issues is the problem, and there is a memory issue because of "pointless" threads, then why the hell did you create a thread saying the exact same thing you wrote here???

r_i_g has been owned!! i just saw the picture.. how does that look like a tan??

I got the server is busy message when only 18 people were on and then again when only 15 were on.

It's getting beyond ridiculous now!

LoL I wasn't trying to offend you lol I was talking To IOLKW at that time and he's like just tell him to stop with the fake tan. LoL I wasn't trying to offend you were right it was pointless I thought it was memory but its the traffic. I missread something somewhere. I was just joking around when I said it. Also for danabaa what the hell I wasn't owned lol. Also if you say how's that look like a tan you would no because your a expert in that category

Ohhh, so it was an "in-joke" between two guys who've never seen me before in real life. A joke, btw, that has no merit whatsoever since for it to be a joke, it has to be sorta true. Which it isn't, since like I've said before, you've never seen me before in real life.

And IOLKW, how's about next time YOU tell me these things instead of having somebody else do it for you, mmkay?

I made a comment on it messing around, I didn't tell him to freakin' post it. mmkay?

I usually get "server busy" when there is like more than 60 people online!

Hey guys,

There's a couple of things you guys need to consider. First... the users online count only counts REGISTERED users online. We currently don't have it set to count guests... and obviously not everyone who browses this site is registered. So, the user count is a bit misleading as it doesn't count those people who don't actually have accounts.

The second part is something CCShadow himself once said: CDS was never designed to handle this kind of load. Truth be told, when he was first writing it, I don't think he was anticipating that the site would be as big as it is today. The V6 code that we run right now is not very different from V5 in terms of performance. V7, on the other hand, is an almost total rewrite with an emphasis on performance. CCS and I have actually been working together on V7; him from a coding standpoint, and myself from an administration standpoint. From what I've seen so far of the core V7 engine, the site will be a LOT better off.

We understand the server busy messages anger and frustrate you. Believe me, we're as frustrated as you are. We ask that you be patient with us as we work towards V7, when (I hope to GOD) we can put the performance issues behind us.

Hope this helps...

Pkay thanks Bisshop!

Thanks for the info DAB. I'm hoping V7 will sort out a lot of these problems too. I'm sure eveyone is thinking the same thing too.

Thanks DAB

Thanks for the info, DAB.
