Thaivisa & Bearpit Down

[Boon Mee]

George:

Curious why both the server(s) for TV & the Bearpit were down earlier.

Just as news was filtering in about the earthquake and wave damage in Phuket?

Thanks,

Boon Mee

I dont know for sure, as i dont have access to the ThaiVisa servers, but i would imagine it had something to do with the high volume of traffic ThaiVisa encountered yesterday.

The database has some problems sometimes coping with the massive request and posts. Forum can be in and out severla times a day due to high traffic.

We have about 800 guest browsing the forum every hour last two days due to the disaster. Peak moment was 1,187 users on 2004-12-28 21:08:24

Darknight=supermoderator?

So he finally met the doc and 'sponsored' a few Cabernet Sauvignot? Or is it the usual strategy of regimes assimilating dissent by dishing out priviliges?

BTW, what happened to the V.I.P. room? Got demolished shortly after D.K. joined the mod team?

Congratulations and happy life hereafter, Darknight!
