All I really think is: why can anything take down other steam services? http://store.steampowered.com/stats/
This included tf2 items systems and w/e (which at moment of me writing is still not working for me or others I hear). Maybe they should do some re-design or w/e, but really, with near all 2.44 million active users losing connection there, taking ~2:30 hours... one would make services clustered etc, and offsite backup sites where services can be taken over within a fraction of a second after main goes down. The small dip on okt 12 18:00h alone is around 200.000 users.... Don't get me wrong, I do LOVE this latest update on TF2, so many things done which improve stuff, a BIG thanks for that. I just hope Valve will now start looking at Steam and other services back-end and improve it such that any of the services aren't affected by other services, and that some clustering systems are in place that automatically take over. Even to off-site if need be. Yes, I've seen all messages about it, but still... _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
