_Zafia_ Posted April 5, 2008 Posted April 5, 2008 Is that how it should work with the current equipment or are there some sort of a problem causing this? I really love the new avatar list, mainly because its a part of your site and kinda trustworthy. But i have no intention of using that, if the lag are so massive. The longest it has taken for an avatar pop up to load is +5 minutes. The shortest is 2 seconds which im quite satisfied with :) If its the current equipment that is to blame - may i suggest making the pop up info in the same page as one is supposed to get it to pop up? So when one wanna read the requirement for the avatar one has to press 1 button and the the info is shown under the button.
antiaircraft Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 I believe the lag problems are actually due to the huge amount of traffic the site is getting (I also experience some cases where the page refused to load altogether :( ). Hopefully Ian will get things flattened out over time.
Aprodia Posted April 13, 2008 Posted April 13, 2008 And to think some people actually believe they GET the avatars here... o_O man, time will past before the dust settles around the avatar checklist. So patience is a virtue.
crxsnochic Posted April 13, 2008 Posted April 13, 2008 I had no idea that people were thinking that lol! No wonder it's been a bit slow!
antiaircraft Posted April 13, 2008 Posted April 13, 2008 There are people who think you can get avatars through the TDN avatars checklist? o_O AvatarLog has been around for a while and I didn't hear about anybody making that mistake... *shrug*
~*MidnightMoonFiretail*~ Posted April 14, 2008 Posted April 14, 2008 Well, either they never ever played neopets before...or...
m3l3ana Posted April 14, 2008 Posted April 14, 2008 I believe the lag problems are actually due to the huge amount of traffic the site is getting (I also experience some cases where the page refused to load altogether :( ). Hopefully Ian will get things flattened out over time. I had the same problem today. I signed in and then went to Avatar you haven't got (or whatever it is) and it wouldn't load that page at all. I sat there for almost 15 mins waiting for it and then gave up :S
Xepha Posted April 14, 2008 Posted April 14, 2008 We are aware of this situation... and there is a FAQ on Neoavatars saying that you can't get the avatars in your neopets account by checking them on our site XD.
antiaircraft Posted April 14, 2008 Posted April 14, 2008 :laughingsmiley: Now you just have to deal with the confused idiots who don't know how to read the FAQ. If a page doesn't start to load after about 30 seconds, it's best just to hit the reload button (I'm impatient, so for me it's closer to 5 seconds :P ).
m3l3ana Posted April 14, 2008 Posted April 14, 2008 @ AA: Well aren't you just a charmer. I normally wait a few mins then click the refresh button.
~*MidnightMoonFiretail*~ Posted April 14, 2008 Posted April 14, 2008 The longest I probably waited for is 3 minutes, went down to get a snack, and then I refreshed, I tried 3 more times, then slammed the keyboard. It's really annoying for me <_<
m3l3ana Posted April 14, 2008 Posted April 14, 2008 I slam the keyboard too when I get annoyed or I slam the mounse onto the table. *ponders* I wonder how good that is for the equiptment :P
~*MidnightMoonFiretail*~ Posted April 14, 2008 Posted April 14, 2008 It hurts them more than us, that's for sure! :yes:
antiaircraft Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 Well I do occasionally slam my equipment, but I carefully check the wiring and everything afterwards. :P The avatar list lag is getting really serious, but it seems a solution is in the works so I'm not that worried.
