WHY IS THE MEMBERS THING OFF LINE, MY STAT BOOST IN NC IS NOW GONE AND ITS BULL
Feb 13 2007, 4:45 am (Edited on Feb 13 2007, 4:53 am)
BYOND seems to be having some problems right now.
They are trying their best to fix it.
Just because something is broke, doesn't mean you have to scream at the forums!

[EDIT: I can't access members page, but that might just be because of my school]

Stego should have programmed that checking-system better then, shouldn't he?

not to mention your 'stat boost' is probably game-related, not BYOND-related.

No, digitalmouse. When you subscribe to BYOND, you get an INSTANT Life+10 yrs, and a "Potion of Strength" bonus :)

Our stupid hosting provider forced us to upgrade (they wouldn't take "no" for an answer) and stuff broke. Additionally, they did it later than promised last night, so I was no longer awake to try to fix things immediately as it happened. Yay.

Sounds like fun.
Myspace servers strike again?

Though, to me, it seems plausible to think...
If BYOND and MYSPACE are on the same server, the server would be upgraded more, and kept in better shape, and have a better internet connection, BECAUSE of myspace. Right? :/

They aren't on the same server, they are in the same room. My website is also in the same room, but on a different server.

Oh, sorry.
But couldn't a server host more than one website?
Feb 13 2007, 5:36 am
In response to Flame Sage
Sure, mine is on the Burns server, with about a million other small sites(Probably not that many), while BYOND gets its own server(really 2 I think). Myspace, no doubt, gets many servers. The large traffic volume requires multiple servers.

In response to digitalmouse
but can anyone tell me when the server is going to be back up, and how it will affect my stat boost
Feb 13 2007, 5:59 am
In response to Jessdess
It will be up soon. Just wait for it. His algorithm can't give you stat boosts because it checks the site every time to see if you're subscribed or whatnot, and it can't check the site if it's down. It'll be back up once the site is back up.

Please take any concerns about game issues to that game's developer.

The Hub goes down from time to time for maintenance and the occasional hiccup.

I have to wonder why it's checking the website when client.IsByondMember() works instantly and independently of that.

Any idea how long this will take Mike ?

He most likely requires them to have the game in their favorites for the stat boost.

Which, of couse, can be spoofed now with the flexible layout and custom content boxes. I wonder if we should encourage that, to help prevent this silly practice of rewarding players for adding a game to their favorites (or worse, punishing them for not having it there).

Hehe, I was actually thinking about setting one (a fake favorite games box) up just so I could add peoples games to my favorites when they asked. =)
