That server upgrade didn't help much Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

Apolyton is as slow as it always was in the past few days. And you guys should really learn to set the server clock on time. What kind of incompetent sys-admin can't even get that right?

Whenever you see the server clock not displaying the correct time, please email Tony Bolger directly at tonyb@worldchat.com instead of posting it in the forums. Feel free to CC myself and Markos on the letter should you wish.

Thanks.

Got spare money?

Paul, if even you are getting frustrated...then we have a problem.

Dan, do the tech guys work for you? Are you a paid employee. It doesn't seem like you have the amount of control I'd expect from a director of operations.

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

Yes, I am frustrated. It is very difficult to follow discussions when new posts appear at random places in threads depending on how far the clock is off.

I find that more of a problem than the slowness. You can at least avoid most of the slowness-related problems by browsing in multiple windows.

GP:

GameStats tech does not work for me nor do I work for them -- I work <I>with</I> them. The President/CEO is both of our bosses. As clearly outlined in my job description on GameStats.com, my responsibilities as Director of Operations do not involve anything advertising, legal or technical related in regards to GameStats' operations. They are handled by the P/CEO and DoT respectively.

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Well, I would e-mail them about time warp problems, but when I saw my post was three hours ago, even though i just made it, I figured I must have already done it in the intervening time period.

It seems ok again now.

Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations

I suspect that the new ad set is slowing things down. We've had this issue before with Ebay and certain other UGO ads.

Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

I suspect one of the two ads in the upper right corner. Like the uplister ads...

The reason for my suspicion is that you changed something with the ads lately...and we've trouble in the past....

Good news for a change Support Apolyton, buy Call to Power 2

I've found things much better since the server upgrade and the change in the way ads are presented. Loading time is way down, and my posts get posted much faster.
