  1. Hello,

     

    This thread will list all of our global admins for Squad. Each server admin will have access to EU and US servers.

    You still haven't taken care of it? Holy shit mate.

    Unfortunately not. The surgeon I had back in New Jersey cancelled the night before surgery (I had to call them to find out). Afterwards, they kept blowing me off and I just gave up.

     

    While having work business trips and moving, I didn't want to schedule anything. So that led to now. I'm hoping to get the surgery scheduled ASAP after the appointment on Friday. I have great health insurance now and the place I called sounds promising, so I'm hoping I don't run into issues like last time.

     

    Thanks for the support everyone!

  3. I just wanted to let everyone know I won't be available this Friday from 11 AM until somewhere in the late afternoon. I have scheduled an appointment with a surgeon. After this appointment, we will schedule another appointment to have my hernia removed. This will result in me needing some time off as well.

     

    I will keep everybody updated.

     

    Thanks!

    Between 2:30am and 4:30am CDT on Tuesday, July 17, INAP will be performing maintenance on one of our links to them in Chicago. This may cause a brief connection interruption and/or routing reconvergence for customers reaching us, or being reached over, our INAP connections at this location (INAP is one of three transit providers that we use in Chicago, in addition to direct peering with many ISPs).

     

    Thanks.

  5. I would also like to note that we don't have much administration access due to the servers being official. The best we can do is find the player's IP through ProCon (which you will be given access to if you become an admin) and block it through the server's firewall.

     

    We may try setting up a ranked server in the future which would give us access to more administration commands. However, these servers will not receive quick play. Therefore, the servers may not populate easily.

     

    EDIT

    I would also strongly suggest reporting hackers through Battlelog so EA/DICE bans them.

     

    Thanks!

  6. I and I'm sure others appreciate the apology. This post shows how much you care about the work you do and your commitment (which is a very great thing). Though, I do think you're beating yourself up a bit too much over this (which isn't necessarily a bad thing in my opinion). Shit happens and people become busy with life/issues that leads to inactivity. In your case, your computer exploded. It happens.

     

    I hope everything goes well for you in the future! Also, do you plan on sticking around?

     

    P.S. I'm sorry for not writing more, I'm working at the moment and can't write much. I may edit this post after work.

     

    Thanks!

  7. Update

    We are currently moving our Garry's Mod TTT #1 server to the new NFO machine. The move should go quickly since there are only ~3 GBs of custom files on the server.

     

    I will reply again once the server is moved!

     

    Thanks!

  8. Update

    We are moving our CS:GO Zombie Escape server to the new NFO machine very shortly. I figured this would be the best time to do it since the server is down from the CS:GO update anyways.

     

    I will post another update once it's moved.

     

    Thanks! 

  9. Hello,

     

    Our CS:GO servers are currently experiencing issues after the latest CS:GO update. All CS:GO servers appear to be offline at the moment and aren't booting up properly.

     

    We will most likely have to wait for a SourceMod update to fix our servers.

     

    I will post updates regarding this issue in this thread.

     

    I apologize for this inconvenience.

     

    Thank you for understanding.

  10. Update

    I will be moving the servers in the next couple days. I'm off from work tomorrow, so I'll probably try to get things done today and tomorrow.

     

    I didn't want to move any servers on the weekend because the weekend is the busiest time on our servers and I didn't' want to risk anything breaking.

     

    Thanks!

  11. Hello everyone,

     

    We have recently purchased a new NFO machine after the incident on June 24th. This machine will be costing us $10.00/m less than the old machine because we paid the one-time installation fee ($99.99).

     

    The new machine specs are the following:

    • Processor - Intel Xeon E3-1275v6 @ 3.8 GHz
    • RAM - 64 GBs
    • Disk - 1000 GBs SSD
    • Price - $164.98/m

     

    The old machine specs are the following:

    • Processor - Intel Xeon E3-1270v5 @ 3.6 GHz
    • RAM - 64 GBs
    • Disk - 1000 GBs SSD
    • Price - $174.98/m

     

    Here's a comparison site that compares CPU's single-thread performance. The E3-1275v6 has a score of 2,359 while the E3-1270v5 has a score of 2,169. Since SRCDS is mostly single-threaded, the single-thread performance of the CPU has the biggest effect on our game servers. Overall, our servers will be performing better on this new machine.

     

    I plan on moving some of the servers today (probably CS:S Surf RPG DM and CS:S Bunny Hop). I will make an announcement on the public Discord and reply to this thread once I trigger the moves.

     

    Over the next few weeks, I am going to be observing the peak CPU usage on both of our NFO machines. If possible, I'd like to cut down to one NFO machine in the United States (this will save us around $164.99/m as well). I will post another update in the next few weeks to say if this is possible or not. If possible, servers like Garry's Mod Breach will also be moved to the more powerful machine which will increase performance.

     

    The old machine (E3-1270v5) gets cancelled on July 11th, 2018. Therefore, we will need to have all the game servers moved off of that machine by then. I plan on having all the game servers moved well before then, though.

     

    If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know!

     

    Thanks!
