SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE (1 hour) @ 1:30am PST

Postby [violet] » Wed Nov 25, 2015 11:36 pm

Hello! We're expecting an hour of downtime starting approx. 1:30AM PST, i.e. in 3 hours from the time I write this post.

The downtime is to add a new dedicated database server in order to improve site responsiveness, reduce load, and add capacity for other goodies planned down the track.

As usual, only gameside will go down; the forums will stay up, but you will be unable to login. If you are already logged in, you can sometimes remain that way, especially if you navigate only by clicking internal forum links.

Apologies for the inconvenience.

We sure this is going to be just an hour? Or will it last longer like the last time? :p

I'm surprised that the NS staff is quite so dedicated to service quality, since I'm noticing minimal loading times, for all of which I'm ever more thankful.

Wait, so other mods can't log in?

I really do notice a considerable amount less of loading time. It's like...instant. Are you sure you guys didn't switch to Lifi? xD
