Site problems...

[rocky_warrior]

I'm aware... But won't have time to dig into it more until later this evening.

A couple refreshes seems to fix things for me.

Right, but it's not supposed to work that way! Lol

[MUEng92]

It gave my a laugh that I had to refresh twice to read this thread.  It’s all good!  I won’t send you any less money for my subscription than I have for all these years.

Shaka has taught me “we get past hard”.

[HowardsWorld]

This is the type of stuff that makes me want to convert to a badgers fan.

[#UnleashSean]

I'm going to need a refund.

How else is one supposed to get dentist approved posts?

[1SE]

Clearly WKU DoS attack. They know scoop is like Sampsons hair. Cut it off and MUBB loses its fantastic strength.

[rocky_warrior]

I think we're all better, but if you see connection problem warnings, please let me know here.

[Skatastrophy]

I vote for new moderators.

[HowardsWorld]

I think nolongerwarriors is back with vengeance

[rocky_warrior]

Talk about wasting a vote!

[Pakuni]

This kind of thing would never happen with Dodds in charge.

Just think of these connection issues as ellipses.

There was moment of tin foil hat thoughts where I considered that that could be what happened

Honestly...something happened out of the ordinary yesterday.  We were seeing abnormally high database connection requests (30-70), but also, the server was set to a far lower maximum connection number than it can actually handle.   I've bumped the connection limit up, and today we're only seeing 1-10 connection requests.

(database connections only last for a fraction of a second and then disappear)

So maybe it was a semi-succesful DoS.  Donno.  We should be good to go now though.

Clearly Russian, Chinese & Iranian governments plan to use Scoop this election cycle. They'll pose as MU dentists, perfect cover.

I was only getting errors on certain threads.  Which was strange.

Like you said, connection requests can climb quickly if they're close to timing out. I've seen it happen when someone was running what should be an overnight report or stats during the day on prod (this was quite a while ago, mind you). Maybe the LLM you're training on Scoop data is sucking up the resources?

Did the hamster finally die?   

Hope you are well Rocky!

[Jay Bee]

Still worked better than a lot of the naughty sites reeko frequents

Just a little malnourished.  I got 48" of snow last week, so sent him out to do some shoveling.

[dgies9156]

Did Chicos inject a virus into Scoop.

[Uncle Rico]

Just because I’m an evangelical Christian doesn’t mean I frequent sites like that

[Scoop Snoop]

Wait a minute! How would you know?

[tower912]

That information would Falwell into his field of interest.

[Jockey]

Recent surveys have shown that around half of evangelical men under age 30 use pornography at least weekly, according to Samuel Perry, author of
“Addicted to Lust: Pornography in the Lives of Conservative Protestants.”

Ha! You thought if you joked about it, we would disregard.

[tower912]

You think Rico is under 30?

Where’s COS98 these days?!

I don’t believe that study.  There isn’t any evidence Conservative Protestants are perverts.  They read the Bible, pal.

I do my own research

I do not doubt you one bit.

Its why I don’t floss

Haven't touched base for a long time.  But if you're good at googling, looks like he ran for lighthouse point commissioner in '22.

I am ........ having........ connection ---- issues..... 

What, no teal?

Please reboot the Internet first.

[Newsdreams]

Better not have this issues for Dallas, how else I'm I going to get to informed during the game I'm attending.

[goldeneagle91114]

I bet NoLongerWarrior is a hacker, taking down the site, so we can no longer talk ball like Wi fans

[TallTitan34]

Maybe Shaka is crying because he couldn’t get on Scoop?

[brewcity77]

This is just a by-product of success. People overload the site because everyone wants that little piece of Marquette shine.

[rocky_warrior]

Sadly it's not an overload issue.  This particular problem appears to be an aging hardware issue.  But because upgrades take time, we're trying to keep the ol' thing going until May.

We sleep in May.

Take up a collection.  Everybody chips in a few bucks.   Maybe Rico and Newsdreams work up a special bake sale.

I’m waiting for the new Marquette message board to launch to keep the woke mob off it

You really need to collect the late dues from the scoop deadbeats here so you can go shopping for new equipment. It's not fair when I send in my dues on time, and they don't!

Brownies in the oven, not for children!

I have heard that your recipe is highly recommended.

JFC my Scoop dues are high enough as is.

I spent my dues at the NIL store today getting Sweet Sixteen gear. I'll get the mods back next month. Put it on my tab.

I didn't buy any Marquette gear during Wojo's tenure to express my displeasure. I only have 2 MU shirts left and one has a hole in it. Time to buy all the shirts.

I thought the Indy gear was meh. Passed. Final Four or bust!

[muwarrior69]

This just in:

The Obamacare MUScoop website goes down for software hardware fix. Government Scoop technology experts took the main health insurance website down overnight Monday to try to fix the problems that have kept millions of people from signing up for new plans logging in, but ran into more serious problems than anticipated. The site www.healthcare.gov was out of order until mid-morning Tuesday, creating another big public relations headache for the Obama administration’s the Scoop moderators.
