Site Speed Issues
You should hopefully be noticing a significant increase in site speed. We recently purchased four new high end servers (bringing us to a total of 19 servers for the site, half of which we added in just the past year). Two of them are hooked up as of today and already making a difference. The other two should be brought online in the next week. I don't know if this will help when 4 games go down at once on us (as happened a few weeks ago), but it should mean we will run pretty fast during most regular usage and normally expected peak periods like the Tuesday morning WoW down time.
Thank you for you patience with us as we have continued to upgrade our site to handle our growing pains. In just a couple of years we have gone from a site doing around a million page views a day to one that does between five and six million a day and is now one of the top thousand most visited sites on the entire internet. We are continuing to tinker and adjust and upgrade in order to try to continue to make this the best destination on the web for MMORPG gamers.
