The new database server was put online this morning. This should help speed up things like the NG search, bbs, and other database driven features of the site (almost everything). Let us know if you've noticed a difference. We had some problems with the site running slower earlier today, but it wasn't related to the new database, it may have been a network problem.
oh wade, you make me happy like little girl in old country! oh yeah baby, new servers, its almost an arousing experiance..
it wasn't for me
well, it was for me
whoops, other personality
i'm supprised tom didn't make the post post. oh well, lets hope this one keeps stuff running smooth for a while, eh?

Well, the site's certainly running faster right now. Good job. It's only a matter of time before you need to get more database servers though. One of these days, every room of the Fulp house is going to have a Cray supercomputer in it. I wonder how fast the site will be then...
I wanted Tom to make the post, but I guess he's been busy today and if I didn't post it today it would be silly for him to post it a day or two days from now saying "Oh, by the way we put up the new database server 2 days ago, anyone notice a difference?" hehe.

Since none of the servers for Newgrounds are actually in either Wade's or Tom's house, I guess we'll never know.
i thought it was a touch faster...finally it can move at a decent speed.
Thanks for the good news, Wade. I hadn't noticed many errors or slow down as of late but i'm sure this will help even more. You guys care so much for us users.=)
I could surely die
If I only had some pie
Club-a-Club Club, son
<3! wade, will you be the father of my children?
to tell the truth, i havnt had any errors since i got back on friday, other than using up my 4 posts per half hour, and once in a while my connection would drop, but thats not NG's fault, now it's gonna be even better...
wade, i see what you mean, what's he busy with anyways? better be Pico2
he could have also just lied and said "we just got a new server put in" i wouldent have known the difference
Hmm well thats cool. It Seems faster Then it usually is at this time.
It's running beautifully.
It may be b/c it's not peak, but I love it.
Everything is running perfect. This should last abnout another day ;)
Finally! This place was driving me nuts with the damn errors! I mean, I had to wait forever to go to the next page, and for what? An error! But now this place seems to be running much smoother, and faster too.
Seems pretty good so far. Not an error yet.
WEll, even before now i have noticed a great change in NG performance! The BBS has been running great this past wee k with no errors (barely any lol)
The pages have been loading faster for me too! Now i can DEFINATLY see a differene. Good job yall, i swear to god you guys at NG are my idols..
Tom Wade and JAmes for life!!
you did a fantastic job, heck, we can now be 240 people on the BBS instead just the ususal 50 ;)
I haven't gotten an error since Liljim worked/toyed with the back-end coding. It's running smoothly. But I haven't really noticed a difference in speed though, just no more errors.

I'll second that...whatever that means. I actually noticed a 'hiccup' in the sites performance after Wade made that post, but it seems to be ok now.
Off topic, but I love the multi-author system. There's a problem though, when someone votes on a movie, it shows the other's other works on the finished voting screen, but it only shows the main author and not the others who have been added. Can this be fixed?

Yes - expect it to be so tomorrow.

While you are at it, will you ever be working on a way for all the collaborators to reply to reviews? Because now, only the person who submits the movie can reply to the reviews, no?
sounds great glad to see things are finally up to speed again wade how is your baby btw?
Yep, everything working great now. The ONLY problem now is Wade isent updating his cam and doing somthing funny, lol. I sware, your the best cam whore Wade, :P
