Unbearable

[StankBacon]

the internal server errors are becoming more and more annoying..

you can't expect to run a worthwhile community website if the user gets bombarded with errors.. i got one just trying to make this post.

to be honest, the only reason people are putting up with it is because they've been here a long time, you will never get new members that actually post and become a constructive member if the 1st experience here is a error page.

the time has come to stop pussy footing around this with dreamhost.

DEMAND to know what the problem is, what you can do, if anything to fix it... and if they give you a hard time, threaten to leave.

if they say fine, leave. DO IT.

find a new host that better serves your needs, don't say you wanna stay with dreamhost because of the space/bw they give you, every host is pretty much "unlimited" now.

we can handle the downtime for the transition, hell, with the errors, the site is down more than 50% of the time anyway.

FIX IT NOW.

[n00b1n8R]

Oh, well if you insist they fix it, I'm sure they'll get right on it. :downs:

It's not nearly as bad as you say it is. If you can't handle a little waiting then I think you need to learn some patience.

[Sever]

Patience is one thing. Letting a company step on you is another. Seriously, fix the problem one way or another.

[StankBacon]

every time i visit this website, i get at least one error, and i visit pretty often.

that's bad.

[teh lag]

It is bad when you lose posts because of it. I get one about every 5 minutes. They can last anywhere from 30 seconds to 3 minutes.

This.

It happens to me around six times every visit to the site, and can last just for a little bit, or for a very long time.

[SnaFuBAR]

i have to say that this is becoming more and more of a joke. this rivals halomods in downtime out of pure 500 error occurrences. stop dicking around thinking that someone is going to IM you from that crybaby message you put up. get your shit together guys, harden the fuck up.

[Sel]

I wrote out a post

and then I got a server error.

Just happned to me. :mad: Fix now please.

[InnerGoat]

I've been messaging jcap on aim every session I hit one... I wish he'd do something to get Ghost to fix it :downs:

[Heathen]

Even I'm getting them now. Never did before.

[Hotrod]

Agreed, even though they aren't that often for me, they are still annoying as hell.

[FlyingStone]

Fix the site and ill consider donating
:bandwagon:

[Sel]

Fix the site and I won't ban you all :awesome:

[Syuusuke]

Fix this site and maybe I can stop sneezing.

It's a little weird that I haven't got one since in awhile...but I probably have not visited this site often enough.

[Zeph]

We've run a diagnostic on the domains that checks to see if there are any problems, if there are any potential problems, etc. It came back saying the site was perfectly fine. I've told ghost to use that as leverage to get Dreamhost to solve the problems, but I haven't heard from him since.

[rossmum]

It happens fucking constantly, to the point where I just give up and go shitpost somewhere else instead. DO SOMETHING.

[Phobias]

I've only ever gotten the message twice :S

[Siliconmaster]

[Agree] with everything said.

[Thankful] to Zeph for that update.

[Unsure] why I am posting like this.

[Sel]

got one for about 5 minutes when I first tried to get on the site.

[Kornman00]

I clicked to go to the second page of this thread and I got a 500

hmmmmm...we need tshirts...

[StankBacon]

It happens fucking constantly, to the point where I just give up and go shitpost somewhere else instead. DO SOMETHING.

same, i used to wait it out, but now i just say fuck it and go to a different website.

-edit- got a fucking error while making this post....

[jcap]

I told Ghost the steps to take several times. I'm powerless with regard to this and I've tried everything I could.

[Kornman00]

all in favor of killing our host, the ghost

yay

[BobtheGreatII]

You could just trap him and force him to fix it...

we're ready to believe you!

[Sel]

Who you gonna call?

GHOSTBUSTERS!

[SnaFuBAR]

this host is pretty shitty, to be honest.

[Tweek]

DEAR FRIENDS, I HAVE COME UP WITH A SOLUTION TO OUR PROBLEM!!!

let's all have a fucking cry about it.

[Sel]

This thread seems especially prone to ISE (500).

[armoman92]

You could just trap him and force him to fix it...

or just kill him.

even better, trap him and force him to look at the error screen for the rest of existence.

[Siliconmaster]

I haven't gotten a 500 message at all today. I was confused, and then I realized- first day of November. The memory limits must have reset. That's one of the reasons it was so bad the past few days. :P

[legionaire45]

I get them a lot.

...you guys do know that modacity isn't the only site on the internet, right?

[Kornman00]

...you guys do know that modacity isn't the only site on the internet, right?
you know that this is the only modacity on the internet, right?

Ghost's storage/bandwidth on dreamhost is soo high it might as well be unlimited. The 500s we're getting come from not enough memory being available because apache starts a new instance of itself to do anything for any connection.

[supersniper]

At least they aren't like halomods.

They've been down for a while but these internal errors are just temporary...

[TeeKup]

Has anyone else noticed is happening like every 10-30 seconds now?

[JunkfoodMan]

Yeah, I thought they went away until a couple of hours ago.

[Zeph]

We're trying to get our resource usage a bit lower. 'Tis why we've gotten more 500s here lately.

[Saggy]

Sorry for the bump, but I've been getting the error again. This time, wtf?

nice cursor

[Roostervier]

For what ever reason, I can't see the pic. :\

[InnerGoat]

Yeah it was edited. It's the 500 error I believe.

[supersniper]

Wow,kinda weird server error...

[Hotrod]

Yeah, I saw that too, found it kind of strange, yet awesome.

[InnerGoat]

Has the site been slow to load pages or otherwise unresponsive at times for anyone else? Maybe it needs to be moved to a different one of the many shared servers dreamhost runs again...

[Timo]

It's been fine for me, although i've gotten two 500s in the past week.

[SnaFuBAR]

yesterday and today i got 500's, and the site has been very slow.

[ExAm]

Haven't had a slow day myself in a while, no 500s here.

[StankBacon]

slow site is slow.

[Hotrod]

It's been fine for me, except for 1 error yesterday.

[Bodzilla]

i havent gotten 1 in weeks.
:awesome:

but somehow i think just typing those words have doomed me in some other way....

[Roostervier]

I haven't had a 500 for a week or two now.

[FRain]

I had one about two days ago.

That's what she said.

[n00b1n8R]

Haven't had once in weeks. >_>

[Bodzilla]

so only amerifagz are getting hit by 500's now?

oh god thats fucking delicious.

[StankBacon]

no, those errors should be gone now, since the site is back on a shared server, and off that god awful private shit server.

it will be slower, but more stable.

[FluffyDucky™]

I don't get the error but omg takes like a million years to load a page.

[Jelly]

Was slow for me until recently, but it feels back up to speed now.

[Roostervier]

Sucks for all you guys... it's been both fast and error free here. <_<

[Inferno]

Same. The 500 stopped for me right after the 5 day down time.

[LinkandKvel]

Sucks for all you guys... it's been both fast and error free here. <_<

^these

[TheGhost]

The site is back on shared hosting so you shouldn't see any 500's now. We are looking intently at a dedicated server to resolve the performance issue.

[ultama121]

Thanks Ghost. : D

[ExAm]

It's amazing the crap you guys go through just to keep this site running. Mad props to you fellas.

[Saggy]

OK, so did the site just go down again or does it have something to do with the 500 Guests that all appeared around the same time?

[Roostervier]

:(

I'm finally suffering from the slower speeds.

It was good while it lasted.

[Inferno]

It's amazing the crap you guys go through just to keep this site running. Mad props to you fellas.

They do it because we all know if they stop we will start a angry mob or something.

[ExAm]

And what, hack the server? Pff.

[n00b1n8R]

They do it because their stupid enough to put up with our shit. :awesome:

[Bodzilla]

got hit with a 500 last week, after i made that post.

fucking irony can go fuck itself.

[StankBacon]

got one yesterday while trying to send a pm.
