Servers so unstable recently

[MrChee]

We have come back to the island after a few months away and so just today since we came on there have been 4 crashes in the last hour on server 2 in peak time and Server 1 is no better. This game mode needs the server to be reliable for successful money making and quality RP. How can altislife.co.uk justify taking over £1000 a month in dontations for such an unstable service!? I understand the admins have a lot of work but why not just reduce server cap a bit... im sure nobody would care about -15 slots per server if they could actually play a full 4 hour session!

Exile servers can easily have 85 players, loot spawning, hundreds of user placed building objects, hundreds of vehicles on map and all the other infrastructure... i struggle to understand why the most popular altis servers which take so much money cannot sort out stability issues.

If you didnt know ALUK can do nothing about it. Its a bohemia problem, so before you criticise ALUK for providing an unstable experience, go and have a look at the change logs and see what the devs have been doing

We AREN't modded, therefore there are shit tons of SCRIPTS. This puts loads of strain on the server. Our admins and Dev's DO NOT GET PAID either, so the money that gets donated is put towards server upkeep/security/forums and future m,months when the donation goal won't be reached. as FarmerDickhead said, it's a BI problem  and completely out of ALUK hands. No matter how many  slots are available the server will crash.

This problem has been around since the release of 1.54 in novemeber.... it was another cock up by bohemia but rather than moan about it we decided to help them as seen in one of the sitreps where we get mentioned

If you check the feedback tracker there are many many servers having the same issue due to an animation causing a memory leak.....

Firstly this isnt a service... this is a roleplay community ... but what do you want us to do ? donate the kind £1000 people donated to us this month and pass it to bohemia to fix the issue thats been there since november rather than pay for our servers ?.... Its an animation crash, they are fully aware, they are trying to fix it, This is an issue with ARMA 3 not our scripts... only bohemia can fix this!

Reducing server cap will do nothing, there are altis life servers with 30 players crashing, I do know that Exile servers are not having this issue as there not running the unknown animation that is causing the crash

I think rather than having a unknown pop instantly maybe next time do some research, Acting like a dickhead will simply get you no where here.
