Slow Loading / Timeouts

Hi Worfi, nice to see you again.

Eh, remembered me to a german-dutch joke:

"In einem Zugabteil sitzen ein Deutscher und ein Holländer nebeneinander und Ihnen gegenüber eine Nonne und eine junge Frau mit einem sehr knappen Minirock. Als der Zug durch einen Tunnel fährt, fällt plötzlich das Licht aus und das Abteil ist völlig dunkel, es gibt einen Knall und alles ist ruhig bis der Zug aus dem Tunnel wieder rausfährt. Der Holländer hält sich die rot angeschwollene Wange und denkt:
Verdammt, der Deutsche hat bestimmt versucht die Frau anzugrabschen, hat dabei die Nonne erwischt und die hat mich versehentlich geschlagen.

Die Nonne denkt: Der Holländer hat bestimmt versucht die junge Frau anzufassen und die hat ihm eine gelangt.

Die junge Frau denkt: Der Holländer hat bestimmt versucht mich anzugrabbeln und dabei die Nonne erwischt und die hat ihm eine gelangt.

Der Deutsche denkt: Im nächsten Tunnel hau ich dem Holländer noch eine runter."

No offense intended.

Sorry guys, SOMEBODY had left the autorenew on the domain turned off :roll:

That would have been me… and it was on!!.. but it failed =[

It has been fun the first 4 weeks, after that its getting back to doing the same.
I stopped raiding because i can’t find the time anymore. And after leveling 3 characters to level 85 i have seen the new zones a little bit too much.

I can imagine; my initial excitement is also slowly shifiting towards the fatigue/boredom I had… But it’still nice atm. I’m happy with my worgen druid, but I’m still not quite used to being in the ally camp now (had some ally chars before, but mainly to get rich off cross-faction deals).

Never did any raids btw… :oops: Find it too much of a hassle. I even don’t like dungeons/instances that much. Or rather, the way most people want to play them (as fast as possible and skipping all trivial stuff - but to me trivial stuff is pretty much the quintessence of life ) Maybe Blizz should change their reward system.

I’m always open to some… arrangement, provided the price is right.

Bit of a late response

But well, tried to do the worgen start area and i hated it the minute i had to fight my friends the forsaken/undead.
Im Horde all the way, with all 4 chars (at 85) now.
The raiding is ok. But i miss the excitement and the community as it was before.
I am a healer on 3 characters, and i basicly have a say in dungeons, and believe me; i hate skipping stuff in them as well.
Right now im back to semi active raiding, 3 times a week for 3 hours per evening. I do this with good friends, and that makes it nice.

That domain what still runs on my DNS servers? (atleast i believe it does)

I’m pretty sure we’ve moved the domain to new DNS servers with the host switch.

Why not reporting that to the TLR Staff or that guy on TLR? Before ending in guesses and clues without proper facts…

The entire TSP staff got banned… I guess just because we were there. Think half the team hadn’t posted a thing at that point.

But I don’t really care, it’s just funny to see.

Yes, you are banned.

Explaination:
In november 2010 (about 1 week after I got TLR from its previous owners) four TSP admins suddenly appeared at TLR (probably as reaction of a mass mailing to inform the TLR members about the changes). One of them started to open threads and started flaming TLR, its old owners and the new ones. Banning that TSP admin succeeded only after the IP was banned as multiple accounts (6) were created by that guy that evening.
Banning the other TSP admins was a preventional measurement as we assumed they would start similar behaviour due to their appearance at TLR right at the same time. Since that the bans remained active.

If our judgement that day was wrong and the three remaining TSP admins did not mean to cause any harm then Id like to officially apologize to them.
(and of course will unban them if they wish)

And now a few words to the ddos stuff and pointing to one of my sites and one of my teams.
Now seriously… does it always have to start this way?
You see something and one moment later you point your finger either to me, my communities, my team… or whatever. Last time it was the tutorial issue that i proved to be wrong… now its ddos attacks. Every 2 months such a crap… thats annoying. It doesnt lead to anything good. So can we please stop this crap?

With the day that Ive taken control over TLR the attacks from there stopped.
You know very well that my own community was victim of the ddos attacks due to my support to TSP during the first year of its existence. I still remember all the nights that I talked with worfeh about these issues and how to stop them. I have never condone such methods nor will I allow it in future.
We have no interest in damaging TSP, we actually have no interest in doing harm to any FL community. That would be pretty much like shoting in the own foot.

You can consider Folgores statement about ddos as serious as the “•Get OP Skype for his Birthday, if not, gift him a time-bomb” that was said at the same post -> a weird joke

The TLR staff and modding teams consists of people from various FL communities. Some of them are regular users and well respected members of TSP. It makes not much sense that these people would cause harm to this place, dont you agree? I also vouch for Folgores integrity as he would not even consider to damage his good reputation as developer of various mods in different games.

If someone is attacking TSP then someone else is doing it (I would not want to point my finger on someone as I could not prove it).

TSP represents a big part of the FL community. So does TLR/SWAT. All troubles between our communities cause damage to FL. Nobody of us wants that. I can understand that personal grudges have a big weight but they harm both communities and finally the players. We should at least try to get along.

I was well aware this was guilt by association, OP. I don’t really care whether you unban me or not, and I will not start a big thread on what you consider to be flaming and how one guy can cause everyone else banned. Despite your negativity we haven’t banned you for it, and that’s not because we werent tempted trust me!

As for the rest of your post, I personally saw it as a joke. A terrible one at that, but I’m not blind. It’s just ironic how these kinds of jokes never tend to show up on here or FLC or Digital Brilliance or basically any other site.

Maybe I wasnt the only person showing a negative attitudes towards other people. I remember getting at least the same amount thrown into my direction but ok, things happened. One word leads to another and everything leads to a big mess. However, negativity doesnt get anyone banned, broken rules (by purpose) do. Thats why one TSP admin was banned. For the other 3 bans I apologize.
Their appearance at TLR after almost 3 years not being there and just at a time that another TSP admin decided to break the forum rules in alphabetical order looked kinda “weird”.

I am not 100% why you think that weird jokes about other people or sites just happen at TLR. Infact it was the very first time that something like that happened since I am owner of that site. Next to that I only would need to browse through the recent threads about DVDMan/Polarbear to find 2-3 weird comments about TLR and SWAT.

Question would be how to prevent such stuff in future in the interest of both sides.

Why is the word “starport” or “TSP” also banned on TLR.org? That makes no sense at all, either. You talk about all “for the good of the Freelancer community” BS but that still exists.

As for access there, I don’t really care, you burned your bridges already.
