Are we heading for another downtime?

Tue Nov 09, 2004 12:37 am

I dunno if I'm the only one getting this, but...

I go to Neopia. Fine. I go to Tyrannia. None of the pictures show up.

I go back to the Explore map. None of the pictures show up.

I go to the art gallery. None of the pictures (except cached ones) show up.

I go to the news. None of the pictures show up.

my internet is working fine, and there's nothing taking up my bandwidth... pictures in the pet/pet/pet matching thread aren't showing up either, and neither are neocolours or neoitems.

o_O

It seems to happen to me all the time, and not just on Neopets. Perhaps you should try closing all your IE windows (or whatever browser you use), then start it up again.

The Red Pteri is out for your blood.

o_O Hmm... Neopets is being slightly laggy for me. I'm getting random "could not find page" , etc errors every so often. Other than that things don't seem to bad. Although it is happening a bit more than usual tonight. I guess I'll have to wait and see...

Hmmm...the pictures were put back up in a certain order (maps, then headers, then pets)...

It's working now, but lagging...

And yes, I'm getting lots of blank pages and error pages.

Everything seems fine on my end.

Well, I haven't tried logging in since I got home tonight, had things to do then came here first. But earlier today the site was very laggy, each page was very slow to open and was opening in "bits", parts of the sidebar, images, just loading really oddly. Main Shops page took forever to open and I couldn't get the Haunted Woods page to open at all, but could click through to the fairground ... just took a looooong time to load.

Games were taking awhile to load to - black screen for a minute or so, then the game loading, then a black screen again for about 30 seconds or so, then the game. Games themselves, the ones I played so far today, all worked fine.

I also keep dropping my internet connection (dial up) every 20 minutes or so, but only on the site, nowhere else. And yes, everything is cleaned out - I do that every day.

The shop font html isn't and hasn't been working for about a week now either. So, maybe some things are being worked on? That would explain the oddities today if some coding or whatever it is they do is happening.

Not so much anymore. I just tried ot RS an item, spent 5k on it, and it said that the shopkeeper accepted my offer, and then I clicked the return to shop button, and it takes me to a 404 page. Im like alright, and go check my inventory, and NO ITEM. :/ and NO NP. :x

I know, the same thing just happened to me, the page slowed on me, my NP paid, but no item. I was just about to post that.

Its getting slower!

Is the flash banner one so bad? ;) I wish the flash banner one would die for a bit longer. xD

Tue Nov 09, 2004 1:59 am

The flash banner should just .... die, period ;) otherwise it does look like there's problems, given the number of new topics that have been made. Either can't get onto the site, can't get images to show, etc. Sounds like either going down or should be going down to me, definitely I'll be staying away for awhile.

Well, I guess I can't create a new board for this. Has anyone else tried buying from a user shop? I wasted 15K on codestones :x I bought one and payed for my training session, and then it said I hadn't paid yet. So I bought another one, I didn't mind too much having to buy another one. It did the same thing. Well, I bought a third one and went to my inventory, it had taken my money without giving me the codestone >.<
