What the hell!?
« on: June 30, 2005, 01:58:23 AM »
Well today on GodSpire at approximately 12:46 A.M. GMT -6:00 I experienced the worst crash I've ever had on GodSpire. Before the crash there had been some lagg, very noticeable lagg since everyone else experienced it, but not huge lasting lagg.  Next thing you know, a strange sound and everything froze, my whole comp froze as well, and I had to use the suspend button to restart (or the power). I've never had a crash that froze my comp like that, let alone one that caused me to have to restart. So I come back to find... everyone gone, save for Meclar. Who said he experienced no crash, but suggested it may have been some connection problem. When I got back, I still noticed some jumpiness from lagg every so often... Seemed very strange to me, so I thought I ought to report it.

GMT -6:00 12:46 A.M. - Close Estimate.

Sounds like a client side issue, There are ways of creating scripts to crash a users PC but there are no scripts like that in GodSpire currently.

Unless there is something added that I dont know about, One thing could be the tracking onf info, every log that is sent is downloaded by the server every time a user logs in, or makes a move. since GodSpire seems to log everything now, it wouldent suprise me that the logging is whats doin it.(The lag I mean)

During the time I hosted a lineage 2 server I noticed logging of certain info ended in Very frequint lag spikes, and nwn is getting very close to lineage now that SQL is being used.

We will just have to see.

Well, it isn't a shitty Dell, and I wasn't ripped off, being I bought all the parts seperately from Newegg. And I only got the brands I liked and knew were good... besides my mother board which I got an alright brand... and that is also 2000 without buying a new monitor, or speakers, or mouse, or tower. (This is why I often say I hate my piece of shit monitor)
