Office server

[Kidder]

I don't know if anyone else noticed how shitty the sever is running but its very very lag its so bad i couldn't even play any more. Everyone was bitching about it so i know it wasn't just me. So I just wanted to let someone know so they could look into it before nobody plays on the sever because of it

tomorrow i plan on going through the server, plugin by plugin, and figure out what is causing this shit.

Well, I for one, don't have any lag issues ever. But no PC is the same, so thats IMO.

But we do need to get something straight, I shed a tear when I see how low office is sometimes, and then i get flashbacks to how popping and busy and what a awesome community was on there before.. Now its....... the dead zone

I never have any lag issues per say . However I have notice that on most servers but esp n/u I will get pre fired as well as take cover and still take damage after I'm in cover any ideas?

I've done some tweaking to the back end of things, so tell me what you guys think. I've already got several pm's saying that everything seems good.

Also, this topic seems to have gotten a little off hand. It's not about who does more of what, or who is the better admin or reg. It's not even about the donations (all proceeds are put right back into the server, and excess is rolled over to the next month). I have not been here as long as some senior members, but i have seen my fair share. This community has been through a lot, and some members have come and gone (and returned again). I don't judge people by any set criteria. You are what you put in, and members bring several different skill sets to N|U.

Don't take Sio's post at face value, but rather as an snippet of frustration that we server dev's face. I work a solid 50+ hour week, and on top of that run 2 servers for my own business (a data back-up server and a webserver, entirely non-CSS related) so it's hard to find time to work on shit. I don't know his exact schedule, but i know that Sio frequently puts in 10-12 hour shifts. Pasties has his own company in Canada, and if you have talked/read Jackd's thread, you know that he's out of state on a business call to Cali (and possibly something freaky w/Shotgun, but the jury is still out on that one ). Not trying to make excuses folks; just giving you a little peek behind the curtain. =P

I usually make it home no later than 5pm EST, so if you need anything, shoot me message via steam, pm on the forums, or a new post. If something still needs attention, feel free to hit me up or bump something. I get distracted w/RL shit, and just because i (or another g0d or Jr. Owner) do not reply does not mean that your opinion or ideas are not valid or appreciated. Shit happens folks. People lose jobs, or have family/job issues and cannot pay any more, or just up and leave and create their own community (has happened more than i would care to think of). We've restructured and assigned new w0rd recruiters before, only to have them leave the next month. =P

We're currently rebuilding and tweaking everything from the server move, so some stuff has gone on the back burner. But I will try my best to facilitate and/or try to work around suggestions and ideas. I just would ask for a little patience.

let me point something out to you guys, i warned everyone that if we could not keep the donations coming in that the community would not be able to stay on the servers they resided on. and since that warning ive seen nothing but a decline in interest for the community as a whole.

with out donations the servers dont continue to run, at least not on the stable and perfected boxes we once had. now we have to resort to cheaper methods of keeping the servers online and since the move its been a battle to get them back into shape. still i see members dropping like flies becuase rather then help get things squared away they see it as a waste of time to participate.

in all these years in working on the back end of things i have only had 3 solid offers to help (nat, ender, and one other).... thats only 3 in 6 years, but the complaints over the years were non-stop.

where are the people that actually give a damn becuase i personally dont see to many people lifting a finger besides the ones that donate continuosly and have done so for years.

why did we drop so far you ask? becuase people on the servers were rude, incompetent, bullying, and had a total lack of respect for anyone other then themselves.

im stopping here as ive got more to say but saying it wont do anything for anyone but me as itll get things off my chest.

Well i didn't know thats y the sever got moved to a cheaper server and it runs the way it runs. I would love to start donating again sometime when i get back on my feet. But for now my 4 kids and wife come first and thats why you dont see me play as much any more. I love this community as a family and hate see it go down the way it is right now.I was just saying what i was hearing on the server to give you a heads up didnt mean to step on anyones toes sorry- KIDDER

I've always gave a damn. I'm sorry that I don't have money to donate but I did donate some of the money when I won that tournament way back when in office. But because I "didn't donate continously and have done so for years" apparantly means "I don't give a damn". that makes so much sense..........

After the two links below this, i'm happy I don't give a damn anymore.

Sios, I would be glad to help in any way I can. You let me know what I can do, and I will do my damnedest to do it. Stand is better with computers than me, but I can learn. We donate all that we can each month. Christmas is coming and as you all know we have a shit load of kids to buy for. If there is anything else I can do, please let me know. We love N/U. We want the community to stick around.
