Connection Time outs
Every single night from about oh, 3-5 am, when I do the bulk of my RP posts, I encounter this nasty little problem with connection time outs. It's like the server just goes to sleep or something and refuses to serve.... or else I get a 'server is busy' message.

So what goes on about that time? Because it's a rather odd time for high traffic.....

What browsers are you each using? I'll give our host a ring on the issue. Seth, do you get the message all the time, or just at the time OS specified? OS, you're Atlantic time, right?

Actually , perhaps I was exaggerating a little, Its not all the time , but I think its roughly about the same time as OS.

It is an annoying message though.

I've gotten a message like that as well, not very often though and I don't remember what time frame it was....

I got it about an hour ago. I don't get it all the time, but when I do its too sporadic to pinpoint an actual time frame.

I get a "Sever to Busy" message every once in a while, too...

Oddly enough, my posts still seem to go through.

I am using the latest version of Firefox, and it happens most chronically during the time I specified, though it's happened at other times of the day.....


And yes, I'm EST

It appears we're not the only ones having this issue.

The server guy says it's probably because that's the time backups are being made. Then he told me to do some stuff, which I had already done when vB was installed. Let me know if you're still having problems.

Is this a matter to my problem or different that when I want to reply to a post that is for my character like Exar Fel, if I didn't post it in sooner, it goes back to Marka Ragnos profile that gets very annoying.

I've noticed the server busy thing happening to me with increasing frequency, between 8 and 9 am gmt, really bloody annoying.

Shoot, I thought for sure I had fixed this this morning. If anyone else gets this, please tell me! It must be the admin account, but I got my first error this morning when using a test account and IE6.

I do occasionally. Not as bad as they were before. Don't happen as much and only last a few seconds.

Solution
Write your RPs in word at the time you normally go and post, but do not post them until you are at a point where you do not have this issue.
