@scribus !EqDawn Thanks for the update.
scribus: !EqDawn -- Our plan has been upgraded. We now have twice as much storage space, and 25% more RAM! Unfortunately, this probably won't do anything for the recent lag-spikes, but our hosts have assured me that they are working to resolve the issue, as it has been reported by other customers as well.

scribus: Got word back on the !EqDawn server load -- they're not yet sure what's causing it, but they've had other reports and are looking into it. If all else fails, we can switch to a different machine from the same hosts. @spectrumflash

spectrumflash: @scribus Don't suppose you have any idea what might be causing the huge lag-spikes on the !EqDawn server, do you? Seeing CPU load spiking up to 130+ at times. (Definitely not us)

scribus: @cabal I wouldn't say so. When it started, it seemed centered on /co/, which was 99.9% anonymous. That's not a community in my mind as there are no individuals. Nobody knew anybody else, and it was pure pony discussion, but that was it. Eventually, things developed - RDN, fimchan, ponibooru, !EqDawn, Synchtube, the whole scene. Many of these weren't anonymous; people picked handles, came to know each other. Friendships developed, but tensions also did. Not everyone gets along with everyone else. But that is part of a community. To keep it relatively short, I'd say that from the beginning, we've *gained* a sense of community more than lost it; just because it's not easy doesn't mean it's bad. But what the hell do I know?

remove: These recent rumors (which won't be discussed here) have caused far more drama, discussion, consideration, and unexpected swearing out of generally mild ponies than leaks ever have. #EqDawn (Future me, check the timestamp against ponyleaks.)

scribus: @retl !EqDawn Who got the equestriandawn.com domain again? I've been thinking, if there's a .com now we may as well look into moving the MUSH (hopefully for the last time, right?) onto it. Also, I tried posting a new topic in the forum, I got a "You may not add the following tags to taxonomy_forums: 4" error in both Chromium and Firefox. Maybe I should just sleep. -_- Eyes. Not. Want. Be. Open. . . Good thing I can more or less type without looking.

spectrumflash: !equestriandawn !eqdawn Up early this morning. Rainbow Dash sending me to represent Ponyville at the Equestrian National Weather Conference in Detrot. I have a sneaky suspicion that she's getting me out of the way so I don't get to compete in the Running of the Leaves. :P

remove: #EqDawn has changed a lot since I first joined. I'm frankly not even sure if I belong there anymore. I'd feel weird abandoning it now, but most of the other early members I used to play with the most have either blipped out of existence or don't really say much to me anymore. But maybe I'm just not being forward enough.

scribus: !EqDawn - The scheduled downtime has been re-scheduled for 7:00 PM Eastern. It is still expected to last 15 minutes, and the MUSH should still be back online automatically.

scribus: !EqDawn - Update on the server downtime! Here's the paragraph exactly as it was eMailed to me: "We will be performing server maintenance on Thursday, October 27th at 12PM Eastern Time. The expected downtime is approximately 15 minutes." The MUSH should auto-restart as soon as the server is back online.

scribus: !EqDawn - The update was . . . mostly successful. There appears to be viewing problems again, and ANSI is dodgy, but it looks like the databases were successfully carried over, and the code is running. I'm looking into getting the finer points fixed, but we may need to wait until the Wizard who set them up is available. I apologize for the inconvenience.

scribus: !EqDawn - Monday, October 17th at 0100 AM Pacific the server will be updated to the latest version of PennMUSH. It will be unavailable for play at that time. I'm not sure how long it will take; hopefully less than an hour. Ideally, much less than an hour. Further information will be available on the blog and RDN. Thank you.

remove: !EqDawn I just coded up a +weathercommand object. Not really sure how/who to submit it for checking before having it made global. (Do we have a designated wizard for that?)

remove: @scribuskrueger #EqDawn I'd like to have Myrddin's BBS installed to the MUSH. I've already run through it on my own local test server and have a good idea of how to do it (It's pretty much automatic, actually. Most of the info is listed on the site, along with helpfiles on how to setup auto-refresh and the posting groups) but it requires somepony with a wizard bit to install and configure. I passed it to Luna, who told me to bring it up to you instead. http://myrddin.annelions.com/index.html

remove: Sup, interweb? My ride 'll be 30 minutes later than usual. What does this mean? SLACKING! Even harder than usual. Or rather, chilling out. I'd head over to #EqDawn right now, but they also don't have Telnet installed by default, and the copy of MUSHClient I tossed in my netstorage is borked. So hi.

remove: @scribuscooper #eqdawn Twilight wanted to set up a forums, so I got off my lazy butt and set up some and made her the admin. http://equestriandawn.retl.info/ I had a player ask: <General> Spin the Wheel of Fun! HobbyNobby says, "So how much longer until the forum is, y'know, mentioned anywhere on the blog or MUSH news or something? :V" So I thought it'd be a good idea to send a message and ask since I already had the window up.

remove: @thelastgherkin So-so. I'm thinking I'm either gonna take a bit to play #Disgaea4 or draw, then make some flash cards for my class tomorrow. Listen around on the chat on #EqDawn. Mostly the usual. I've got some older sketches I left half-finished more than half a year ago that looked pretty cool, so it might be a good time to revisit some of those.

deelite: Uugh. I really don't get people sometimes. Guess I'm never going to find a good RP spot no matter what rating, G or PG or PG-13 or R or even X, I look for. Here's holding onto hope that !eqdawn will work out.

remove: @chaosmagic Not much. Building up one of my character's homes in !EQDawn while I'm not too stressed out about it. Trying to draw a cute ponypicture to share with everypony as part of a trade with @starlightbolt . Wondering if I should snack or not. And one of my favorite chat buddies just popped up on IM, so now I'm probably going to get nothing else done for the day. XD

remove: @scribus I'm saying that !eqdawn is epic and probably won't die as a result of scaling issues from popularity. (And the undertone that it won't get flooded by like 100+ players every day is intentional too. No offense meant by that, but I can only think of three MU*s I've ever seen with +50 characters on at all times, and they're commercially funded affairs... (except the fetishy MU*.) ) I like to think that it'll always be around, though. X3
