Dustloop downtime explanation and future


Guest

Hey guys, I know you guys have been sad and confused why dustloop was down this past week and i'm here to explain the situation:

WHY

We were shut down last week due to the fact that we were using a lot of server CPU, causing the server to shut down intermittently until it culminated in a permanent shutdown at the end of last week.

We've been temporarily moved to a higher tier of service for 2 or 3 days to give me time to fix problems on the site. The higher tier of service is quite expensive ($200 a month!) so I've been looking into how to optimize the site to reduce our server load. I believe I've found the cause and we won't need to be footing such a huge bill.

WHAT'S NEXT

After that they'll be checking our server load and assuming we're okay, we'll be moved back down to our original service (with a much more manageable price tag - $40 a month), which means we might go back down again for a bit while that gets changed again.

I know people want to use the forums to arrange things like a GG side tourney and a BB team tourney for Evo, and I sincerely apologize that the site had to go down now...
