Back up!

2022-02-10 17:47:39

All items should now be back up and working!

Also, notifications are now retained for 2 weeks. The weekly cron will go through and archive any notifcations that are 2+ weeks old.

We have a new archiving system for notifications, which allows us to keep notifications for longer (just like before), but they just aren't included in the 'active' notifications area. So your 2+ week old notifications aren't being completely deleted.

This is being done to help with lag. We are still working on reducing lag with other site features.

Downtime & Lag

2022-02-09 17:59:30

Due to bugs that we're working on fixing ASAP, some item uses will be down temporarily. These include energy items, account EXP items, adopt EXP items, stat increase items, PTS items, treasure slot adding items, and item space adding items.

Registration for 4dopt is also being set back to closed, due to bugs and lag that we're working on fixing. The site will be re-opened after we've stabilize. Saturday and invite-only registration will still be an option while registration is closed.

Notifications

2022-02-09 12:35:49

We are currently working on addressing site lag, especially with notifications.

All notifications (except for those in the past two days) have been moved into an archiving area.
We still have these notifications, they aren't lost or deleted. If you need to be able to access them, let us know here or in the contact us form.

Also, let us know in a comment on this update whether you're experiencing improvements in site performance, or if it is about the same. We are still working on this, but with hope that the site might be running faster now.

the most time i noticed lag lately is later at night, when we have more then 20 people on. other then that the lag has been better. and usually when i'm exploring. but that could be because of the items and what not.
