Kind of Up (Please Read)

Hey guys, we're testing this out (not telling people its up) to see what kind of load the server can take.  D and I are going to monitor the site tonight and see if we still have issues with speed and load times.  Currently groups and clan fuctions are turned off while we check things out.  You can still post in your clan forum, but ATM it is completely open so if you want to talk about how stupid 2o2p is, how dumb another clan is, or had upset you are at the changes just be aware that anyone logged into 2o2p can read it.    

 

This wont be for long, but we needed to make sure the rest of the site could handle the traffic before we started turning on the heavy stuff.  We ask that at this time you DO NOT recreate your clan in the groups area.  We have all the clans still in the database that you create before in beta and will bring them up ASAP.  

 

I know you all have a ton of questons so please feel free to ask them here.  In fact I encourage you to be blunt.  I didn't spend 3 years, tons of cash, and insane amounts of free time on this project for myself.  The object is to make 2o2p better and even more flexible as time goes on.  So if you're confused, pissed off, or upset then I need to know about it.  Hiding in a clan forum and talking about how shitty 2o2p wont make it better.  Speak to me.

There are no regular forums. Not sure if you knew that or not. 

 

There are group forums but no regular forums.

Are all the normal clan forums back and up on-line? Not seeing mine and a few others.

 

On a side note, the site seems to be running really good and fast

this was the solution to spam problems. Pull back...nuke the site from orbit.  It's the only way to be sure.

I know this week has been insane, so I just wanted you to know that all your hard work is appreciated. I'll keep my fingers crossed that the server can hold the load.

 

PS: You suck!

Since 2old2play's been down I deployed a clustered Netapp SAN, two Dell servers with VMWare ESX, clusterd, configured a high performance switch for this new server platform and deployed the first virtualized server on this new platform.

 

God damn I waste a lot of time on 2o2p during the week :lol: .....  If 2o2p had have been up i'd probably have only configured the switch !

Absolutely right.  I cleared a backlog of paperwork that would never have happened with site availibility.

So far everything seems stable... I am making one minor caching change now, so there may be a 2 second hiccup while the web server restarts... If you're seeing this, it's already done...

In good news, my production level at work has seen drastic improvements...well, after the initial first day when I kept checking the site every two seconds.

I know I thanked you already, but just wanted to say I know you guys have been through hell lately and I appreciate all that you guys have gone through to make this happen. 

Yeah, it sucked for a while, but it's all good. It's not perfect, but I get it. It takes time.

Thanks again and to everyone that's been working thier ass off... thanks as well.

Did anyone else report the right side of the screen is cut off? It might be my settings... I don't know for sure.

 

The site looks legit!

Having had my own clan website at one time I understand what you are going through. Take your time and do it right.

Is there a way to get into site chat? Is there even a site chat anymore? I see "Chat Rooms" under "Community" but nothing shows for me at least on this browser.  

 

Other than that the site looks good.  Nice job everyone.

Is there anyway we can get to the old PMs from the previous site? I have some information in a PM on the old site that I need.

 

I didn't realize that content would not transfer, otherwise I would have moved the info.

 

Let me know.

FYI, you can't X this out and keep it X'ed out.  It comes back after a bit at the top once you've done that.

I loaded up on points during the beta so when the site went live I would be the coolest guy here.  Will the points come back or are we all starting out at zero?

 

 

 

 

 

p.s.  I really want to be able to tell my mom that someone thinks I'm cool.

doodi> just be aware that anyone logged into 2o2p can read it

 

Actually, anyone on the internet can read it.  You just need to be logged in to post a reply.

Fixed. Sweet, thanks doodi!
