However, the link in your post seems to be dead... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sharphead_cgy · 2014-04-28 08:22 Checked and I was at work and online the entire time. Also I just *NOW* got telnet working from the web, so you can check it out by just surfing to http://www.thenexusbbs.com/ and clicking on the "Connect" button. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- silverdawn3 · 2014-04-28 09:54 I just checked from Greece and it is unavailable. Instead, it redirects to an OpenDNS web page. Maybe a DNS issue? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sharphead_cgy · 2014-04-28 15:44 hmm, i don`t know then. Perhaps a DNS issue out of my control. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- procedural_realms · 2014-04-28 19:47 Also having DNS problems from US. I can try to help you sort this out if you'd like, PM me! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sharphead_cgy · 2014-04-28 22:17 PM sent - ty for the offer. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- procedural_realms · 2014-04-28 22:26 No problem, actually it seems to be working just fine for me now. The domain must've still been propagating. Looking forward to checking it out! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Man-EatingSquirrel · 2014-04-30 06:31 I'm having difficulties connecting, both over telnet and the web client. Is it temporarily down or is there something wrong with my connection? EDIT: I can't ping it either ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sharphead_cgy · 2014-04-30 07:15 I had it down for 25 minutes, while I rebanged the TW2002 universe for a fresh game :) Could of been a bad coincidence as the system is usually online 24/7. It is back online now as promised at 1 am MST! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [deleted] · 2014-04-30 07:24 [deleted] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- commiecat · 2014-05-05 16:45 Sorry for the late response; are you sysop there? I signed up and have been scripting in MajorMUD. Wanted to make sure sysop was cool with that and say thanks for putting the board up. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sharphead_cgy · 2014-05-05 20:05 Of course - our game is scripting and dupe friendly - we know how much effort is needed to get anywhere in MajorMUD - literally months to get anywhere decent, so no problem at all. We are seeing problems with the board crashing from MajorMUD - for now until I buy another dedicated system and place it on its own server, please bear with us - I am online almost all the time, so if the board does go down, i'll reset it fairly quickly (unless I am at work of course). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- commiecat · 2014-05-05 20:15 Cool, yeah I noticed a few slow-downs while I was playing so I just disconnected for a while. The admin menu in MMUD has its own database or system cleanup. I don't remember if it kicks off during BBS cleanup or if it's separate but you might want to check that out to see if it alleviates the issue. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [deleted] · 2014-05-05 20:43 [deleted] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sharphead_cgy · 2014-05-05 21:02 Dammit! Didn't mean to delete your reply....sorry about that! In response however - I have already tried moving MajorMUD to the top of the DLL loading CFG file - but it crashed again today this morning. I also increased the bytes/buffer per channel to 16K. Honestly the only real solution is to move it to its own DMA server (like I had it when I ran my 20 line system back in the 90's) and have it running by itself - therefore no conflicts with anything else. Right now we have 51 modules loaded, so it could be almost anything taking the board down. In a couple weeks ill buy another old computer off Kijiji and network it up and put it on there dedicated. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [deleted] · 2014-05-06 19:49 [deleted] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sharphead_cgy · 2014-05-06 22:53 Thanks so much for the comment! Glad to have you with us! If there any games or anything else your looking for, please let me know. I hang around in conference as "Sharphead" online, and sometimes AFK, but I will respond usually within 5-30 minutes (sometimes I'm at work and actually busy...) Another thing I wanted to point out is I upgraded my internet feed to a 50MEG package today, so the upstream will be much faster (telnet is async, so it needs a good upstream pipe). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Beef_Blastbody · 2014-05-27 12:22 ####RINGMASTERSSSSSSS ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [deleted] · 2014-05-27 12:23 [deleted] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sharphead_cgy · 2014-05-28 05:30 LOL.... I know right? I was playing Blademaster myself this evening and getting addicted to it... such a simple game but addicting! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- x3n0ph0b3x · 2014-08-06 16:25 I must have failed to log out correctly because it keeps telling me my User ID is already in use. How long does a user with no input take to linkdead/time-out on the BBS? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sharphead_cgy · 2014-08-09 06:48 It should auto timeout in about 5 mins. Inactivity is set to 300 seconds as default on the system. If I am around i'll also kick you offline if your ghosted.
