Google Ads
Posted: Sat Nov 11, 2006 8:05 pm
You may have noticed an increase in the number of locations where the Google Ads may be found. The reason for this is simple: We're trying to increase our advertising revenue in order to better our game-hosting. As many may know, the server we're on is very limited in what it can handle. Although we seem to be safe with the bandwidth, with the recent increase in traffic, we will need to increase that finite amount in order to sustain more players in the future.
The largest issue is our inability to run a complex game with other processes running in the background, such as the website, debugging, and code-compiling. Whenever you notice a large burst of lag for a long period of time, one of those processes is likely running, and leaching from the time that the game has to run.
Anyhow, I simply wanted to explain the reasoning for the increased advertising. I hope it's not a huge annoyance. So hopefully you can either tune them out if you don't like them, or click on something if you do! 8)
