Slow to update?

from Sins Forums

Not sure if anyone else has noticed... but the forum seems really slow to update for me.  Things like the number of unread threads I'm subscribed to, or when I give Karma to someone, it takes the forums a few minutes to update my "view" to properly reflect changes.

For example, right now, the subscriptions link up top shows 1 unread thread.  But when I click on it, I see all of them are read.  Probably by the time I finish this post, it'll finally update to correctly show all of them read.

And yes... I am hitting refresh! lol

Another example is when I give Karma, I can leave the thread and come back into it (or hit refresh ;) ), but it doesn't show the updated Karma symbol under the user's post, even though the Karma button is gone (and if I check that user's Karma page, it'll show my Karma there).

This certainly isn't anything major, but I figured I'd point it out seems this isn't "normal" and it only started happening after whatever issue there was that caused us to not be able to quote. ;)

It's relatively 'normal'....though it might have been more obvious....with various code-monkeys making apes of themselves...;)

Generally there's a lag which has to do with the complexity of the forum architecture across several sites - all interlinked ...;)

Been like that for ages, just have to wait a while for things to happen is all.  :S

Ok, well it used to be instantaneous for me.  For example, refreshed the site to see (2) next to the subscriptions link.  Clicked it, then clicked the link for this thread.

In the past, for me, it would then immediately update to (1), yet now it still shows as the (2) and will for several minutes still to come as I move about the forums.

 

EDIT: Yup, about 5 minutes later it updated.

He is saying moderation is slow ID, but I don't think Frieder understands the process entirely.  Also Frieder, your Internet connection speed is not Stardock's fault.

I think bluedxca93 was just joking around... having a bit of fun, if you will.

 

Well, that's how I read it, anyway. *shrug*
