Ginka getting too old!?

[Dahomey]

Anyone else experiencing a lot of drops from Armageddon lately? At first I thought it was my connection, but the websites I go to work just fine...

Any way we can fix the lag issues?

The staff are running out of brains, you need to help resupply them, check my signature.

On another note, Nyr said they were getting spam and the such no? Maybe that's affecting the server, it's all on one box no?

The game's running fine. There seems to be a hangup just before the server, along the way. The game isn't lagging. Your connection to the game is lagging. Your connection to "other websites" isn't the same connection as the connection to "that" website. I'm sure your connection to some websites that you haven't tried, are also lagging. But since you haven't tried them, you have no way of knowing. And since you don't know which ones are lagging, you don't know which ones to try. And there's a whole lot of them out there.

Just saying - internet farts happen ALL the time. They just hit different routes and people only see the effects when they're attempting to access that one route that's having trouble at any random moment. Tomorrow someone else's website users will be complaining that their site's lagging. And it won't be the site; it'll be the internet route.

The last couple of weeks, we had some crashes that were caused by a game code bug or two. That's been figured out and is being handled. The lag issues most likely have nothing to do with Ginka, rather they are internet junk.

So, no, Ginka is not getting too old. Lag just happens sometimes.

To make Lizzie's post sound a bit less technical.

Heh. Anyways. I've noticed a lot of lag and drops with certain players as well, and when I did a trace, there is a problem somewhere after the NY ATT Backbone and SBC on the west coast. Only intermittently. Internet Health Report is always a good source of info as well, but to answer OPs question, I'm pretty sure Ginka is still a saucy young maiden. We are no longer dealing with Saikun's Toaster, which would crash if he used the microwave.
