crosseyed: As I have said, our tests prove that BrainKing is not to blame. However, I can investigate and ask some network gurus if they come up with new ideas. That's all I can promise.

(V): I am not arguing with you as it is obvious you are know all who is looking for an argument.

I am concerned for my friend and others who cannot get into site and I would like to think that someone would do the same for me if I could not get into the site.

crosseyed: Not really, depends on your ISP and it's relation to the new server. Has your friend cleaned cookies, cache's etc?

He didn't upgrade he moved it.

(V): Or that there is actually a problem with this site. I and you are the lucky ones that can sign in and play games. I am sure there are many more than just my friend who can't get in that we don't know about.

It is odd that since Fencer changed things that some of us are getting problems with this site. I keep getting the long white page and the page take ages to download and other strange things happening with the site.

However even if it is Global it only happened when Fencer upgraded this site.

Bottom line:

As I have mentioned in the Server News, we are still in a process of tuning some servers parameters, just to make sure that everything is balanced to the best performance. However, it is very unlikely that if a problem occurs and it is actually caused by the site, it would affect only a few users. In 10 years of our existence, we had solved many bad situations and all of them had been caused by global issues - affecting the whole site.

By the way, I never said that I am the best programmer in the world who can solve every possible problem. If a buggy situation just happens and, after trying my best, I find out that I am out of ideas and no solution works, well, we must learn to live with it.

I have a 30 Mbps cable connection at home and although it is a very fast line, there are still many sites that work incredibly slow for me. I don't complain, I take it as a fact.

Dalmatiner: I've just checked your account, to make sure nothing is wrong with it. Logged in within a fraction of second, opened some games, browsed through various pages. No problems at all.

15. mei 2011, 12:42:49

Guys, please. What do you want from me, miracles?

As you can see, there are many people who confirm that BrainKing is accessible and fast for them, as usual. Our internal tests that are running continuously show that all functions work normally, there is no overload and data throughput is smooth, showing no anomalies.

I don't say that people who has problems are idiots or don't know how to use their computers. On the contrary, it is quite possible that BrainKing is slow for some of them, because that's how the web works, naturally. My duty is to keep the site alive and, if a problem shows up, try to solve it. From our perspective, nothing unusual happens here and something wrong happens outside the server, we can hardly do anything about it.

For me, it's different : when I use my laptop,it's rather slow but when I use my familial pc, it's very fast. I think it comes from the pc. On my familial pc, I've put a very powerful graphic card and that helps, I think.

Ok thanks Fencer I will pass that on. Thanks for the quick response. I have not had any problems and have been in the site several times today. The only thing I have noticed sometimes is the pages goes white and slow when I click to make my moves.

I have sent you a message with his reply to what you told me to tell them, to keep away from this board.

PS. My friend can sign in but can't do anything else.

Onderwerp: Re: No access for some players.

crosseyed: From a user's point of view, nothing has actually changed, even the server's IP address is still the same. Host tracker confirms that BrainKing is accessible from everywhere.
As temporary workaround, ask them to try another domain, e.g. BrainKing.cz, BrainKing.de etc., just in case it is a local DNS problem.

Deb4858: The points are not really for anything...they are more of a personal challenge. Fencer (who owns BrainKing) has come up with a lot of different challenges (or goals if you like) that you can try and reach. For everyone you reach you get a certain amount of points.

Here is the page that tells you who has the most ----> Achievements

If you go to your profile, and click on the last Tab, you can look through all the achievements, and see which ones you would like to aim for

Feel free to chat on any of the Public ones -----> Discussion Boards

Also you are in a few fellowships (including my Madhouse lol), someone will always reply to you in those
