Tried to get in here tonight (www.renderosity.com)..tried and tried and tried........
Then I had an idea, link in through one of my ebot notifications. Guess what, I met a guy at the door called Arthur who wanted proof of who I am.
Then I see only 27 surfers online, 27???
Did WW 3 happen? The lowest I ever saw this place was 70 waaaaay back when Willow ran the show.
Ummm where have all the pics gone?
OK what is going on?

Emmm It is kinda lonely in here, like being in a huge store after everyone has gone home.

Aaaannnnyyyybbbboooodddyyyy there.......

.... there is a virtual echo in here, I swear it.

Yea. If I am remembering what I read correctly, arthur.renderosity.com was created to help ease the load on the main servers, but it does not seem to be working. It is kinda hard to read a post referencing an image when you cannot see the image. That's probably why many people are not using it.

Wow, Renderosity's response-time is pretty snappy when there are only 200 people online.

Murphy's Law: As soon as I posted the message above, I started seeing images via arthur. And Renderosity main is up again. Only 228 people on line.

LD, Something just happened, cause 10 min ago, you could not get to www.renderosity.com, market.renderosity.com, and arthur.renderosity.com was not displaying images.

Worse than that, my friends. I was doing, what else, a search of images on Google and the same thing happened: images were not displaying, nada. But, other sites were unaffected (hopped over to WebCrawler and things were dandy). Looks to be a backbone problem and may have been caused by a d.o.s. attack or something at a major hub going screwy. This was several hours ago, so it may have been spreading before being fixed.

I am constantly getting "Site not responding" messages for a few weeks now.

I've been having a lot of problems navigating Renderosity for the last couple of weeks (or more) with a lot of site not found and timed out error messages. I wondered if it was Renderosity or just AOL...

Its not AOL!! this site is becomnig nearly" unsurfable" and im on a high speed cable modem :-(

Okay, I take back all the insults I've thrown at AOL ;)

They have been upgrading the servers for about 4 weeks. The site will be down tomorrow morning hopefully for the final touch. Been driving me crazy. Ron

I've been having the same problems for several weeks now. Site cannot be found or can't display page. Also Rosity is slowing down slower than a snail in molasses in winter. It takes forever for pages to load and the gallery is frequently missing thumbnails. I know something unstable is happening here because last night, I checked my gallery and found the last 3 images I posted were missing along with the thumbnails (and these WERE NOT nude pics).

Cherokee69 The reason you have been seeing stuff missing is because they are moving everything a bit at a time to the new servers. Ron

Actually, the real reason is that the Renderosity site has implemented a new copy-protection scheme to control access, and all of the challenge/responses are overwhelming the site. In addition, a huge and noisome bunch is protesting the creation of the copy protection system, and are adding to the troubles by creating petitions and signing up for bake sales. Overall, it is Microsoft's fault. - Ray

Good Ray...very good....:) Beav

this sux!!!!!!!!!!!!! sometimes it takes a whole minute just to switch pages!!!!! I have fast cable modem.

me, too, folks. I dunno what has happened, but 'rosity has been a bear to get into for at least the last 24 hours.

hopefully once the changeover is completed I will be able to wander round the galleries again.
