Not a bug per say, but fumbbl.com seems slower and less responsive than it was say last week. But then again maybe thats because my internet connection is such a piece of s**t. |

i wouldn´t say your internet connection is ... well won´t name it  . I connect via DSL to my local university, using a VPN Server there to get access to their Broadband (40MBit should b e enough I guess) cause MY internet provider sucks big time with fumbbl.com (the german problem) but still today I got pings on the proxy with about 1500ms which is about ten times as high as usual. So I don´t think it´s just your connection (everyone I played was complaining... well not complaining but wondering), but everyones.
So I guess Christer´s new provider wasn´t exspecting such a heavy load from all the fummbl.com lovers and is cutting down the service (QOS or some other nice feat). Or it´s just that a major line broke down or was cut so that the trafiic isn´t running as smoothly as it used to be.
It´s still usable so I think we should live with it and be happy about this place to improve and test our BB skills.
So long. I´m off to bed

I noticed a lag time longer than usual while waiting for the site to load. (About 7 seconds on a cable modem, my usual time is 3.) I don't really care, so long as it doesn't affect the ping in my games, which hasn't seemed too bad. |

Solution: Donate some money on the PayPal link - Eventually Christer will be able to afford more bandwidth / a better provider. |

This all started after people donated money and Christer switched over to a new server. So it could be a real problem instead of just an issue of bandwidth, whether or not Christer can do anything about it is another story all together. If their is something wrong with a major cable line somewhere we could all donate a few thousand dollars and christer still wouldn't be able to fix it, though i'm sure he could treat himself to a nice night on the town. |

As I said yesterday in chat.. the reason is simple...
Christer is watching massive amounts of Hentai porn. |
