Downtime..

[Stephen]

I remember last night there was probs loading stuff like the frontpage loaded but none of the forums would load for like 10 mins. That might of been a backup tho i dunno

[xxMATTGxx]

I'm just going to point something out



Shouldn't it be Jins job to check to credit cards?

Well Jins or Sierks. A lot of people forget that their cards expire on a certain day and when you are working away or on holiday, it's not normally something you think about straight away.

You maybe overlooking something here. Habbox doesn't produce enough funding to cover its own server fees nevernind to have someone monitor this site 24/7. Habbox has and always we be a free site dedicated to its users and habbo.

Considering the down time could easily be solved if Jin could live off Habbox he would have to make Habbox worth his while and with Habbo's fansite Tos it makes it very hard.

If he was earning a salary from habbox I would agree that it is terrible but he isn't and neither is anyone else. Jin isn't your 15 year old who can sit at his PC all the time.

Maybe he should ask for a little help but don't get ---MAD--- because he isn't around all the time and who is to say that any of the AGM's are cabable? (I don't know).

There are ways to monetize Habbox and to still obide by the Habbo TOS to provide funding for Habbox but that still doesn't stop that fact that a volunteer can be here 24/7.

I love Habbox and always will.

In regards of the VIP rule:

When we last contacted Habbo over the matter they said they will look into any fansite rules and see if any need to be changed within so many months. They also told me why the rule was put in place because of other fansites in the Habbo World used their status to sell unofficial Habbo goods and services that they couldn't vouch for. So they banned all types of premium servers across each hotel as the result. I did explain that VIP wasn't like that and was similar to donator but they don't seem to like that either way. If VIP was ever allowed and did return, it would mean VIP as a prize would be pretty much pointless and may cause some problems for some departments. Then again, I don't actually see Sulake/Habbo changing this rule any time soon.

I don't think it'd make it pointless. Free VIP is still better than paying for it

The only way to fix anything is to hire Robbie as SMOD.

I don't think the server is to blame, rather the way it's been configured. This always happens at Habbox even when the server hosts have been different, so I don't think they can be blamed. I don't think backups should crash the forum either.

Still fighting for you hun x

habbox must be prepared for every single thing that may happen

My school's physics department has an emergency contingency plan for continual teaching even if half the science building blows up.

It does seem to have a problem between 1 and 2pm for some reason. I am sure everyone is aware of it though.

I think the server backs up every 12 hours at 1pm if I remember correctly.

[FlyingJesus]

Surely that's every 24 hours

[Grig]

The server used to refresh itself once every 24 hours in the early morning UK times. This was about half a year ago, so this probably has changed. If it is 12 hours, that's pretty ridiculous.
