The past few weeks ...

I'd put this in the giant server reporting thread, only this is nothing to report, because everyone knows about it, and I'm just curious if anyone knows what's really going on.

I remember a time, back when I first discovered Minerealm, that I logged in for hours on end, built my awesome realm, explored, mined, and ran around killing things with just a tinge of lag now and then. A time when mobs spawned in abundance and the primary focus of the server was easy to keep on the realm activity and welcoming new users, wars and trading. It was a thriving entity.

For the past few weeks, Minerealm (in terms of access and actual usability) has been sort of like a broken magical mirror of what it once was. The lag beast has fully taken control, with a bare minimum of 6-8 hours of complete unfunctionality every day. I know there have been problems the last 2 days because of 1.5 and craftbukkit, and the rollbacks have seriously sucked my life away, as I've tried to build a 2nd 128x128 lvl to my mobtrap (and completed it, TWICE!) in vain.

This isn't me trolling the server or anything, it's just what I believe to be an accurate recount of what things have been like lately. I'm hoping there might be a few of you out there who know what's been going on? Maybe comment on this so the rest of us know? I've looked around the boards for explanations but found nothing more specific than what Sony's been releasing about their downed network. Very vague.

Anyone?

Here's you answer for psn wasn't too hard to figure out http://www.shacknews.com/article/68215/ ... ork-hacked

As far as the server goes we have no clue Intelli pinpointed it down to the realm plugin but we really don't know why it's been doing what it's doing lately since we used to have about 90 people and no lag. We aren't being vague just that's all we can tell you other than sorry for the inconvience. Intelli is working hard to find the problem so everyone is happy.

So you're complaining about lag, is what this amounts to. Do you have a solution for it? Or... just talking about it. Alright then :\.

And we've been trying to vote the LagBeast out of office for like three years now, but his promises of rollbacks at inopportune times and obsidian block resetting are keeping the idiotic masses lulled.

On a more on-topic note, you are essentially saying that lag is annoying and that rollbacks have messed with your projects. Fun fact: It happened to everyone else too.

The way you worded this sounded like you think the server is starting to use drugs: "Hey server, how are you feeling? You haven't been yourself lately." We don't want the server to lag, it's just what is happening frequently now due to some other things going on.

And it's not like we're degenerating into a grey blob of boringness and lagging into oblivion. We are having more frequent lag issues due to Intelli's efforts to find & fix the cause of the lag (testing and all).

Hope that helps.
