  1. I have been going through some of the files in the database and seeing which ones are slow. Seems to be some issues with the search function and a lot of queries deal with the search. So until I can fix the issue I am going to disable the search and see if there is any improvement. I apologize for any inconvenience. -carbon
  2. Ok this is the monkey strategy. What you need: - ray guns (at least 2 people with them) - claymores (everyone needs them) - 4 perks (everyone needs the same 4 perks) *before we start I just want to mention that at the start of the game, after the power is on, everyone should only buy juggernog until the first round of monkeys, as if everyone defends it you can get a free perk early on.* Ok so this works best with everyone having ray guns, but if that is not the case this still works well. To start everyone needs to buy the same 4 perks. I suggest juggernog, speed cola, stamin-up, and flopper. Everyone also needs claymores. What you need to do before monkeys come is save your claymores. You need to assign a perk to each person, so all 4 perks you have are covered. So before monkeys arrive each person adds claymores around their perk machines. If you camp at a lander like speed cola you can leave that one clear and put claymores at all of the other perk machines and then add some to speed at the end before monkeys. If you keep up with it you will be good. The claymores will stay there and not explode since no zombies will spawn there if you are camping in one spot. So monkeys arrive and everyone runs to their designated perk machine. Even if you are a little late the claymores will hold off the monkeys. As long as no monkeys even touch any of the machines you get a free random perk. So if everyone has the same 4 perks, and you defend all of those 4, you can get the 5th perk for free. This is just an all around good way to protect perk machines from monkeys, by stock piling claymores at them.
  3. Get what I have. HD PVR. It is worth every penny.
  4. This is my 1,000th post (on the new forum, had over 1,000 on the old one )
  5. Ad's won't help anything nor is the traffic or bandwidth itself the problem. It is the site taking up room on the host's shared servers. Since multiple sites share CPU usage, we get restricted when we use too much when we get busy. So I am getting my own server so that when we get busy we don't get slowed down or restricted because of it. Since we don't have to share with any other sites.
  6. They are expensive, like 200 a month or more for what we really need. I have a few old computers, I am going to look into getting them fixed up and able be used as a server. I will set it up at home and run CoDz off my own dedicated server. I don't know when this will happen, but that is my plan to help take the weight of all the new traffic since our host clearly cannot.
  7. I think that since we have to share a server with other sites we need our own. We get quite a bit of traffic now and the site keeps going down because we are hogging the server. So I am looking into buying a dedicated server. These can be kind of expensive, but it will be better then paying for hosting I suppose. Anyway so ya let me know what you think, if you know anything about dedicated servers please feel free to post some advice, suggestions, etc... If we get this going I will be adding a new tier to CoDz for ViP's.... people who pay a subscription and will get all kinds of benefits. This wiill help pay for the server. I don't mind paying some, but I would like to have see some members donate to help cover it.
  8. You can only buy 4 perks. So what you do is have all 4 teammates buy the same 4 perks. Then protect those 4 during monkeys. If no monkeys even jumped on any of the perk machines you will get a max ammo and a free random perk. That free perk will fill in your 5th.
  9. Ok, it looks like I have finally fixed this max user connections error. This means I can bring the chat back. So... ya, the chat is back lol
  10. Ok as of right now I have the new *fixed* config file active. So if you see any errors please let me know. So far so good I think. There are no immediate errors randomly or during login, so I think we are good. I have activated the chat again too.
  11. Here is a two part commentary series I made from a game I played with JD2020, MaTtKs and Corrupt Mistress last night on Ascension. 1yOdbrOEXkY HDnoG4QP_jc
  12. localhost is not a user though. I posted this question on the phpbb3 support forum so I might be able to get some help, the host doesn't support, support for third party scripts lol so... ya.
  13. This is due to the a username or password being incorrect, In you control pannel make sure the usernames are linked up to the CODz Database. Since i don't have any access to the database admin then there is nothing more that i can suggest. Well all the passwords for the users connecting to the forum's database are correct. Hmm, we are so close. Once I replace the old config with the new one we are working on, the site is still up until you log out or log in and then sometimes randomly you get the error. ugh
  14. It worked, kind of, it now gives this error. SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ] Access denied for user 'callofd3'@'localhost' (using password: NO) [1045] An sql error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact an administrator if this problem persists.
  15. Ok I entered everything I need however this error came up. Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home4/callofd3/public_html/forum/config.php on line 24 that line is $num = rand (0 , count($db_user_array)); so maybe something needs to be added or changed in this section //Changed for multi-users $num = rand (0 , count($db_user_array)); $dbuser = $db_user_array[$num]; $dbpasswd = $db_pass_array[$num] ; $table_prefix = 'phpbb3_'; $acm_type = 'file'; $load_extensions = ''; @define('PHPBB_INSTALLED', true); // @define('DEBUG', true); // @define('DEBUG_EXTRA', true); ?>
  16. Yes I know only the host can change the max user connections... but my host also told me a way to bypass that, which is wierd that they will tell me how to get around it but not just increase the amount of connections... anyway.... Let me show you the full code, (obviously some parts are changed for privacy reasons) This config file is how the forum configures (connects) to the database where all the information is stored. So this config file is connecting to only one user on the database and I want to add more users, which can be done, but I am not familiar with this process and I have had trouble finding the proper solution online myself. Here is the full script. <?php // phpBB 3.0.x auto-generated configuration file // Do not change anything in this file! $dbms = 'mysql'; $dbhost = 'localhost'; $dbport = ''; $dbname = 'databasename'; $dbuser = 'databaseusername'; $dbpasswd = 'DBuser'spassword'; $table_prefix = 'phpbb3_'; $acm_type = 'file'; $load_extensions = ''; @define('PHPBB_INSTALLED', true); // @define('DEBUG', true); // @define('DEBUG_EXTRA', true); ?> Now I was told to replace the $dbuser = 'databaseusername'; with the code i presented in my first post. I just don't know how to complete the script to run correctly.
  17. I need a hand with some scripting. I am going to explain why you have all been seeing so many errors on CoDz. One issue is that there could be some scripts that are not closing properly or fast enough and connections to the database are being filled up quickly. The host only allow I think 15 connections or so per user per database.( that doesn't mean only 15 users on the forum at a time) Right now I have the forum and the chat on one database with only one user assigned to it. Now If I add more users to the database that means more connections available. So say I add 4 more users, I now have 60 connections available to that database. Now the errors are not all the time even under heavy traffic, so adding these extra users (extra connections) should fix the max users connections to database you have seen. Now I think I have found the way to fix this issue however I am having some trouble with some script. This is for the config.php for the forum. I was told to replace $dbuser = 'callofd3_carbon'; with $db_user = 'callofd3_carbon'; $db_user_array[] = 'callofd3_carbon'; $db_user_array[] = 'callofd3_carbon2'; $db_user_array[] = "'callofd3_carbon3'; $db_user_array[] = "'callofd3_carbon4'; $db_user = $db_user_array[ rand( 0, ( sizeof($db_user_array) -1 ) ) ]; Which makes sense , but I am stuck. I think I have to change something on the last line of code but I don't have any idea what it is. I may even be missing some parts not just on the last line. So if anyone has any ideas of how to correctly complete this part of code, the errors on codz should stop forever and you will never have to see those damn errors and you and everyone will be so happy.
  18. Honestly, I appreciate all of your consistent hard work and devotion, however I would like to see other members win this. I know it says not in a row, but I would like to change it to you can only win once, so more people have a chance to win it. For this upset to you I am going to award you 1,000 brains [brains] The new winner will be the second place user.
  19. Isn't there a rule about winning this thing twice...
  20. Here are the lyrics. Abracadavre - Written and performed by Kevin Sherwood / Vocals by Elena Siegman I can fly like a bird not in the sky Which can always swim and always dry I say goodbye at night and morning hi I’m part of you what am I I follow and lead as you pass Dress yourself in black my darkness lasts I flee the light but without the sun Your view of me would be gone I can see the damage that I Am causing you is so benign You want me to be gone But I have just be-gun I am the only one “undone” I’m a broken miracle now In your head I don’t feel Like I am real But I know It’s all imaginary Are they real And do they feel Is all the pain Just inside my head I am what men love more than life Fear more than death or mortal strife What dead men have and rich require I’m what contented men desire You, want me to be gone But I have just be-gun You will never know how far I’ve come What goes up must never come back down In your head I don’t feel Like I am real But I know It’s all imaginary Are they real And do they feel Is all the pain Just inside my head It’s all inside my head It’s just inside my It’s all inside my They’re all inside my I see them always but they’re All inside my head All inside my head They’re all inside my head It’s killing me To see I’m killing you Death is magic Say Abracadavre Now… You see me now you… Don’t cry when I am gone These shackles they come With certain opportunities They won’t let me get away But they show me we’re the same We’re the same We’re the same They show me that we are the same I can’t give in I won’t give in It’s not a state of mind I’m wretched but I’m powerful and I don’t feel Like I am real But I know It’s all imaginary Are they real And do they feel Is all the pain Just inside my head It’s all inside my head It’s just inside my It’s all inside my They’re all inside my I see them always but they’re All inside my head All inside my head They’re all inside my head
