Grrrr, why is Avidgamers 1 down so much? Every time I log on it seems to be having issues. Drives me insane!

Actually, they had a few days' downtime a while back to try and straighten that kind of stuff out. ^^
It's been a little better since then, and I think they were a tad FORCED to do maintenance, becuase they would go out every hour or so before that.
But I agree. >< They need to get their sharding act together already.

That's why they made AG2. But AG2 sucks. You can't do anything custom. Which is why Avangelis is on Acornrack.

Saa, I remember when AG went down for those few days, 'round Spring Breakish time actually. Jon the administrator had gone on vacation and the site went down and he wasn't around to fix it until he came back. v.V; And it slows way down because there are so many people in the worl signing on all at once that it sucks up their bandwidth real fast and the server can't connect to everyone's computer that way.
What they need to do the most is get a new server or more bandwidth.
Trent Silverleaf is on my msn actually and I talked to him about it. He was saying that they're trying to forcast the next few years and all the baby boomers that are going to be growing older and therefore coming onto AG alot more, both AG1 and AG2. I believe AG2 is faring better than AG1, because not only are there less n00bs with spam posts on AG2, but also it's not as....well not as big of a problem, what with AG1 allowing people to totally customize every detail of their sites. AG2 is more scripted and stricter, thus giving it a bit of breathing room as far as not having to process all the different modifications to each site.
Also the Site Messaging system is on the fritz, and they're either gonna let it correct itself, or they'll eventually work as hard as theycan to fix it, which I presume is whatthey're currently doing.
There's really a whole list of problems that are soon to be fixed. I image they'll get a new server, rumor and mean jokes have it that every time Jon masturbates the server goes down. XD poor AG1.. *pats*
So yeah.. *receds back to his corner to eat goldfish crackers* =3

I don't like AG2 because you can't customize it. You don't HAVE to customize things on AG... You can leave it plain. Which is boring. But I also don't like the whole set up of AG2. There's too much on the first page. It bothers me. Bleh. But I guess its all up to a person's taste. Everyone's different.
Wait.
You're a guy? Who does Pern sites? *glomps*
hehe. There aren't many guys out there who RP for DRoP. *pokes* Join Avangelis. Mkay? hehe

I've suggested moving Limbo Weyr off of AG several times, but no one wants to move it. D: Fortunately for *my* sanity, I don't have to go to AG2, AR, or anywhere like that if people finally let me. :3 I have my own website that comes with PHPBB forum support. Mwaha.

It is rather nice, isn't it?
Oh, and all these tektek Gaia avatars freak me the hell out - I usually spend all my online time on Gaia and it's weird to see them as avatars on other places. xD

-tackles people- I know this thread is oldish, but I thought I'd let you guys know that http://www.ageans.com/ is the new AG if you want to check it out. =D Though I think possibly they're buying the real AG this month, but I could be wrong.

I know right? well just to throw this out there. I made a facebook group called avidgamers.com I made it so people who used the site can get together, reunite maybe even get some sites back up using other forum creation websites. Don't have a facebook? maybe we can organize something. I'll check here every now and than.
