More downtime is expected to come this Sunday, beginning at 9PM NST until roughly 10PM NST. The length of downtime may be subject to change but we will keep you updated.

 

Seriously? Again?. This is certainly becoming a weekend thing...

Hmm! I wonder what's on the list for this weekend's tweakage!

Given that I haven't encountered much lag since they started doing this, I'm quite happy with how this is going and that they give us a heads-up. :)

Today the lag for me is horrible.

hopefully they finally fix things. I feel like giving up on neopets for a while.

I'm not having a problem, what part of the site are you guys on when the lag bothers you?

 

...

 

20 minutes later and I take that comment about not suffering from lag back...it heard me! xD

Well, it seems it's gonna be a short downtime, so I don't mind. I hope they also fix the (many) small glitches around the site.

 

I'm lucky, though. Their time of choice for downtimes is always when I'm fast asleep! (around 2 to 4 am here) :P

Hopefully this weekend will see a fix to not being able to unequip weapons :D

I just wish the lag time won't collide with snowager's sleeping time! Since I don't have the avatar yet, I'll find it annoying if that happens :(

At least we get a heads up more than a day before. And the lag isn't really all to bad for me these days.

Thanks for letting us know! 1 hour of downtime doesn't seem like enough for them to really do much with. :o

I'm still getting a ton of lag but I'm grateful TNT is working hard to try and get things back to normal <3

The lag seems to be worse again now it is weekend.

An hour doesn't seem long, but they might just need to run a few programs that can't be run when the site isn't in maintenance mode?

 

I do hope the lag will be better again next week, but they're doing their best! At least the Auctions are back up :).

The lag might be spotty at times, but at least we occasionally get decent Neopets here and there. They fixed the auctions; maybe they'll fix galleries, BD, etc. And start the CC prize script? Given how much lag the prize and lag gift scripts caused, I suspect they've put the contest scripts on hold for a while, but really, it's only 25 people per contest...

I suspect it might be less about the lag and more about fixing issues that we still have such as with the battledome. Or at least I hope so... I really need to unequip.

Neo's stopped loading for me, how's it behaving for everyone else? I'm leaving it alone for now.

^It's been really spotty here for me too. I've had trouble's just accessing the front of the site, and the Games Room. I had no problem an hour ago doing my dailies, though. Maybe they're preparing for downtime tonight.

I'm very happy that this is becoming a routine thing, downtime for maintenance. I hope that each time, they getting a little bit closer to getting the site working back just like it used to. I've already noticed a significant increase in quality and load times, so I'm happy!

Like I also said in the neo-issues topic, I'm also having a lot of lag...

 

I like the fact that the maintenance is becoming a routine thing (though it would of course be even nicer if everything was fixed ;)), but I don't like that they use the same time slot every week.

It doesn't affect me much, since I'm usually fast asleep at that time, but I can imagine that it does regularly affect other users.

I'd think they were starting the maintenance, but it's very early if they have :O

Haha, I'm pretty sure they haven't started the maintenance yet since I can still load my pages (albeit very slowly) :P

Hmm, I got the page to load, but I've been logged out, interesting.

Probably another instance of the server forgetting your request to stay logged in. It happens from time to time.

Unless my browser's done a ninja update on me. No big deal anyway, I'll just root for my password tomorrow.

Today was a bad day for lag from here. Pages were failing to load, or they took minutes to open. I was in the Battledome trying to add some battles for the latest faction fight. Fortunately I had just completed a battle, and "collect rewards" had gone through. Then boom, the site went down. I looked at the time and it was exactly 9:00 pm NST.

 

Time flies while you're waiting for pages to load. :P

 

While I hope they re-open at 10:00 pm NST, it would be better if they just fixed the site so these lag issues would stop.
