HUGE lag Fri. night in the MA
« on: November 06, 2004, 12:08:12 AM »
I know it's not me, because I heard dozens of others complaining.  

Last night I was on 11:30 cen.  and I was getting huge 3-10 second pauses.  When I click to tower, when I went to launch, when I would type, loooong pauses.  The odd thing is my net stats were just fine, basically flat lined.

People from all countries were complaining re. it.  What was going on?  When I exited AH to go try the CT, ah would not let me in, offered me the alt / route, and still wouldn't let me in.  

I couldn't even get to THIS bbs for a good 20-30min.  When I tried to relog into AH I was not able to connect.

Skuzzy?  HT?  what was going on?

Oh fyi similar thing happened in the wee hours last night as well.

D.O.S. attack?

(update.  tried again 12:30 central.  HORRIBLE lag.  lag so bad that when screen froze and I hit the ground (I was slightly nose down at 5k when the lockup started) I then launched from the tower TWICE.  (you know the, I just died, but for some reason am sitting in the hanger relaunched bug).  TWICE.

It is now 1:46am cent.  I will yet again to fly.)

laggy as of 2:30am cent. and now 3:20cent. i tried to ping AH from dos and got 100% packet loss from 'em.  The bbs just froze up on me for close to 10 min.

the bbs kept lockin' up at 3:30-4 am cent.  i'm assuming this also affected the MA and have not flow.  suffering withdrawls.

?????

Your right I logged in at 6:30pm cst last night and the lag was real bad. For example when I would get shot down I would get stuck in almost like god mode for 5 to 10 seconds before it would put me back in the tower. Or if I killed someone it would take a long time for the server to register the kill. There was definitely somethin wrong last night.
