7:30 am - Server Busy Message

[Demonheart]

Just tried to log on at just a tick past 7:30 am, once again get the server busy message. It's in fact taken me about 13 minutes to post this.
Excuse my ignorance but it appears that if I decide to take up the bigfooty membership then am I actually paying for bigsoccer users as there are about 60 users online atm?

It's taken me about 11 mins to read your post and reply. VERY ANNOYING.

The cynic in me wonders whether the guy who runs this place has reduced the bandwidth in an endeavour to increase his incoming revenue/cash flow.....

Always a possibility, however there are two bigfooty servers, one of which has been down for a while as it was acting up. Hopefully once that gets sorted and is back online, then the server load will be eased.

It's the message we get while you sit there waiting for a page to load.

Shouldn't that read as "Probability"??

How do they determine it's 'busy'?.By number of users?,even if some have 'logged off'?.

 

[Mattlowry]

Its all a scam i think. They just ad random busy messages to ******** everybody off.

No, I think they have a look at who is trying to log in & then decide, if they don't like the users trying to log on, they hit "busy" message & then take it off when the good posters log on.

So why do I get "Server Busy" messages then??

BigFooty is on the same sever as BigSoccer. So 7:30am our time is early, but is peak-time for BigSoccer in the United States.

UEFA Champions League matches were also on this morning. Hardly surprising.

In that case after starting this thread I'll probably be seeing it alot more often

I've only had the server busy message once in the last month and that was the day Lidge made a thread about servers being busy.

Why were you trying to get on bigfooty at 7:30 in the morning?
Do you have a life?

If you start work at that time, it's perfectly understandable.

By the way, doesn't your keyboard have an "S"?
