    Site and Round by Round Crashing

    I'm a big fan of this site, but why advertize a round by round when the site's going to crash every few minutes during it?

    Can something be done to prevent that?

    Well this site gets an obscene amount of hits during fights which they do a Round by Round. The only way to really prevent it is to upgrade servers but that is unlikely since it would be so unused for the most part.

      I agree this has happened to me many times on this site but they do not have the money for another server

        I'm not trying to be a ****, and I get that it's high traffic. I was just wondering if anything can be done.

          Do you know how much a new server cost?? I don't mind putting some money for a new server. I think if we all put in some money & we can help the site to get a new server. I'm down with it

            Our server is practically as high as we can take it. The only thing we can do, and we plan to do - is to add another server to help run the site. The server to run the site has been upgraded four times. A second server will get added in order to ensure the site stays up. Keep in mind that while several thousands are coming for the Round by Round, another thousand or so are reading the round by round in the forum.

            We are almost at the level of needed a cluster of servers to run the site, which is VERY expensive. We will likey go with just adding another server.

              I will put some money for a cluster & I'm pretty sure many others will. Do you know how much it costs??? since you said it's very expensive.

                Well the traffic is a good thing because this is a great site, but it's a double edged sword at times I guess.

                    A good server will probably cost 20-40 K, that would be my guess.
