Forum access issues

[roguescribner]

It seems for the past few weeks the forums are experiencing some serious lag time. I don't have any problems with any other web sites I browse, so I'm confident it's a server issue or something on Green Ronin's end. It's really been a problem over the past few days where the forums will take an extremely long time to load, if they load at all.

Is anyone else having this problem? I'm participating in a couple of a pbp games and it's frustrating not being able to check the boards, especially when I can only access the site a couple of times a day.

I thought everything was moved to a new server? Maybe it's time for another upgrade.

Just slow load time for you?

I frequent about 5 different forums, not including ATT, and ATT has been hard down on a daily bases for me.

All the other forums work, but ATT and the other GR forums always seem to be down as in page not found. I am actually surprised I got thorough today.

Yeah, sometimes it loads R-E-A-L slow for me, and sometimes it doesn't connect at all. In the past 24 hours I haven't been able to connect at all.

I really like coming here, but it seems to be an ongoing issue. The more it happens the more I think about finding my M&M fix somewhere else. And if there is no somewhere else, well . . .

And completely inaccessible again, from about 1pm Sun till now......

We are coming up on the release date of our Dragon Age RPG, a tabletop license of BioWare's latest computer / console RPG. We posted a design journal on GreenRonin.com, and BioWare tweeted about it once. The small subset of their fans interested in checking out our game totally slammed our dedicated web server, making it feel much less dedicated to its job.

We are working on a solution. Sorry for the downtime, but hopefully the interest in this game signals upcoming success for us, and thus the means to keep all our sites running strong.

Thanks!

Hey, though I surely am disappointed every time I can't come onto the thinktank, I surely wish Green Ronin every success they can manage. After all, they gave us M&M, that excuses a lot.

Well I will never be one to gripe if the company gets too many hits

It sounds like there will be a lot of interest in the new game.

Thanks for giving us the heads-up
