So is the forum ever going to work properly or is the problem going to be ignored?

[Agnostic Bear]

I get this anywhere from 2-4 times a week, not to mention the MySQL table crashes and other useless errors.

Every other forum I browse, bigger or smaller manage to keep it up, so why can't HxF?

Any other forum would have seen there's a problem and fix it, but oh boy it's not happening here! Let's apply more goddamn useless optimisations and break the forum even more. I want a smooth browsing experience, to hell if it's .2 seconds slower, stability is always preferable to speed.

Fix the damn forum. Does sierk even know how many times it breaks? Honestly this is just getting to the point of stupidity.

There is literally nothing you can say to convince me these errors are normal or just "part of daily life". It's not. If you can't fix the forum, get someone who can, you're clearly not doing a very good job at it.

Last I saw they have Jin fix the forum behind the scenes, when they should probably have someone close to the server poking it who understands what they are doing.

It is a bit ridiculous, especially when donators are slinging money at them for a server which appears to be a waste of money :/

are you kidding me? 2-4 times a week!? this is the biggest case of nitpicking i've seen in my life. i just refresh the page and voila, everything works again.

I just thought it went down a lot last night because they were adding this message.

However, it doesn't go down that much for me anymore. The last time previous was when it was down a good 24 hours, but the other day there were database errors. I myself can't see a forum working 24/7 a number of reasons can be said for why it did. It workas fine a lot of the time.

I know from viewing the source on the database errors last night (when you see a database error page you can go to view page source and it displays the failed query as an html comment) that at first the SQL server went down (not really Jin or Sierk's fault) and when it came back the vbulletin sessions table had been marked as corrupt. I know it must have been around two or three in the morning for you guys but within several minutes I saw Jin sign on and fix the problem relatively quickly.

That means he stopped whatever he was doing (probably sleeping) at three in the morning to fix this particular database error - now that's dedication! From what I've seen in the past it's fortunate that most database errors occur during the night, so they mostly just get noticed by the Canadians and the Americans

Indeed, but that's quite a lot in todays standards. They're meant to be incredibly rare, not happen that often Combine that with the speculated cost of running Habbox and it comes off as a bit wasteful :/

why should the costs/wasteage of resources be of any concern to him or us for that matter? they inconvenience you for maximum of 5 seconds.

Some people like a decent quality service? Afterall, it's members what make a forum, not the staff It's the principle of why the actions to fix these small errors are at all necessary, when you can easily do without them. Plus they do happen quite frequently recently, a few times I've been cut off and given up

Tbf it is a bit laggy on occasions but I am pretty sure that Jin is aware of this and is searching for solutions.

Most likely, it just depends if he has the time It's a bit annoying that he has to do all the maintenance in the first place :/

Also, cocaine, it's obviously nothing to cry about, but it could be a possible cause for concern. Afterall, this is a feedback forum and the internal errors do get mentioned quite a bit. Best to have feedback on a minor set back than none at all
