2008-08-13 EN World

Gah! EN World gets slower and slower. At the same time, RPG Bloggers loads faster and has better articles. Gah, and all of that a few days after they have finally activated my community supporter account. It took them something like eight months to do it.

=> EN World | RPG Bloggers

1. I donated USD 10 earlier last year 2007-05-28

2. I paid for the community supporter account 2007-10-26

3. I sent my first mail reporting the problem 2007-12-19

4. The first time I posted it on the Meta thread was 2008-04-23 ¹

5. They resolved it 2008-07-18 ²

6. And in August 2008, the site is breaking down due to load (maybe caused by an upgrade of the software?)

It makes me want to cry!

Yep. The new ENW2 seems to be buclking a lot under the strain, hence the big $1 sale push to get new servers. Personally, I preferred the original look and feel of the site, but that’s just me. Hopefully they’ll resolve it soon though.

Then there’s the impact of 10,000 screaming voices leaving Gleemax. That can’t be helping, I’m sure.

I’m also wondering about server load, software upgrade, and the move to a new server: Shouldn’t we look for a bottleneck in the software, first?

You’d have thought so, yes.
