So... What happened to ZU yesterday?

The forums and the main site seemed to be down for a really long time yesterday... Just wondering what actually went wrong? I hope it doesn't happen again anytime soon...

Re: So... What happened to ZU yesterday?

The server's been freaking out over the past couple weeks. Probably post-E3 traffic. It'll (hopefully) improve within another week or two.

This happens every year.

Re: So... What happened to ZU yesterday?

I thought the server move was to prevent this kind of stuff from happening?

Re: So... What happened to ZU yesterday?

Jason spent ZU's server money on his E3 trip.

But seriously I would be interested in knowing the cause of the downtime, and if it's something we should be expecting again or not.

But, but the server is scalable!

But yeah, this isn't new, I'm surprised ZU didn't fall off the face of the internet permanently during E3. Zu always has spurts of being offline, yesterday's was particularly longer than usual though.

Re: So... What happened to ZU yesterday?

My theory is that the ZU server is made of peanut brittle, and melts whenever it gets a lot of traffic and heats up, taking ZU down until a candy computer technician can be brought in to fix it.

What happened yesterday? I happened yesterday. I have been happening for quite a while now.

Re: So... What happened to ZU yesterday?

I took the time to work out.

ZU should go down more often.

Be glad that it's not candy because I would have eaten it all by now
