Title: Overload of server caused by AUTO-REFRESH?
Post by: S3AN1 on November 16, 2012, 08:27 am
I was wondering if people are using an AUTO-REFRESH PAGE Extension in their browser.

I was also wondering if using these extensions could hurt SR and their bandwidth.

Anyone know? When I was a vendor, I can admit that I used it , and would auto refresh every 14min 59sec , so I could be on top of orders. Im no longer a vendor, just a buyer, so thought I would ask to see if Buyers or Vendors use those extensions and if they would hurt SR in any way.

lol enough members doing that creates an unintended ddos ATTACK . Which at current membership numbers is a very good contender in the issues last week.  The biggest ass biter is most likely it was dominated with bandwidth usage to simply browse the menu and not to actually buy or sell.
