Faster Servers in different Countrys (not only the USA)

Our servers are only in the United States.
So our forums in the United States are also loaded very quickly (less than a minute).
But in Europe, such as England or Germany or France our forums server load slowly (about three minutes).

The whole could be changed WITHOUT COSTS! It would only take a second server in Europe, where all the forums from Europe to it.

A little comparison:
This support forum is loaded in 3.5 minutes Germany. But if I viewed the United States, it is loaded in only 1.5 Minten. This is only the half.
Unfair to all Europeans, right?

No, but the Servers were in the USA. Forumotion could make one Server in Europe and one Server in the USA.
So were the Servers for the Countrys faster.

Push.

There are already special servers in Dallas for our USA Users, and some on France, for our European users Wink

I don't see the point in this, a 1/2 second is nothing, it's not like the world is about to complode.

No, that isnt right. All Servers were in Dallas. My too. And Im from Germany.
And, for Example: my Forum from USA:0,9sec. My Forum from my Country (Germany): 2,9sec. And thats pretty slow..

I assure you, there are servers in France, how else would the techs physically access them?

I think I'm asking the wrong question; WHY do you want a faster server?

I mean, their VERY fast as it is, their not designed for gaming, hence the slower speed, not that 0.9 Second is very slow, it is VERY fast (it takes 1.5 seconds to blink your eye on average)

Yall are going deep into this lol just servers peoples

Hello,
But why is this support forum, or the German American or my forum in a forum?
And a Forumotion admin told me that there is no server in France.

There is also software that you can edit the server from other PCs.

I've never said that. I said something like they are around the world.

Well that is surely correct. Wink

Anyways if you want faster servers, then donate to Forumotion. Advertisements pay Forumotion employees, servers, and features. I don't mind any slow servers, I am from the United States, I know others are facing slower servers. However let me point out, a little waiting is nothing, as long as it doesn't take a minute or two you guys don't need to worry about faster servers, trust me. Very Happy

I dont mean you. I am in much other Forums. My Mother language isnt English.
But, when Forumotion had Servers around the world, why our Forums are all only in the USA?

Forumotion doesnt linke donations - my Sugesstion for Donations was closing. But I Buy in my Forum Domains and No ads.
I woulnt FASTER Server, but Servers in morge postitions.

All what I want ist a Server in France or an other Europe Country - who all our Forums from Europe are.

The starting post was edited!

Small note: My forum is loaded from the United States only in 1.3 minutes, and from France, a whole 3 minutes!

15 Darren1, on 13/02/2012 at 21h47

The servers aren't going to be replaced any time soon, we have just had brand new servers installed.
As a indication of speed - Im in London, UK - I'm obviously connecting to the UK/French servers, and I can load all forumotion forums in less then 1 second, infact, I load not just this support forum, buta few of my own forums is aprox 0.5 seconds!

Just so you know, the speed is heavily dependant on YOUR internet connection.
For example, dial up speed compared to high speed broadband. Clearly, the name states the difference is speed which also comes into count. Not just that but the speed purchased from your ISP, and the speed you are sending & receiving from your ISP comes into count. Above all, the most important thing that counts towards speed is a FILTER - both in the Internet Explorer default, and any provided by your chose, or installed with your Antivirus.

I'm sorry, but I highly doubt ForuMotion won't do anything, especially considering they replaced their servers just 2-3 weeks ago!

Hi Darren,
You can be Happy to load the pages so fast Wink

I use much load time tools (PingDoms for Example) and test there how fast the Servers are. If I ping to the Server, there would be Errors too.

In this moment my Forums (only the Forum, without Pictures and Javascripts) load 1,98 Minutes.

17 Jakeb, on 15/02/2012 at 03h21

Voted No.

The servers are already fast enough.

18 LGforum, on 15/02/2012 at 03h28

If its taking over 2 minutes for your forum to load then you got issues with your forum, your browser or your internet lol. Not the servers.

19 Marvin, on 15/02/2012 at 15h03

When I ping to the Server from the USA, my Forum answer in only 200 ms. This are really fast! And the CSS loads in only 4 ms!!! This is much fast!

But, when I ping to the Server from Germany, the Server answer in 950 ms. And the CSS loads in 500 ms. This is the load time ( 1,4 Minutes) WITHOUT PICTURES..

So the Forums load (without picutes) in 204ms from the USA and in 1,4 Minutes from Europe.. that is a big difference..

Honestly, I think your getting your figures wrong. 1.4 Minutes!
If it takes 1.4 Minutes to load a page on your forum... then that is an internet issue... surely you can't mean MINUTES. A server which takes over a minute, in my eyes, is broken Razz

Think about how long a minute is when waiting for a page to load.
10 seconds is a long time to stare at a screen waiting for a page to load, by 30 seconds most people give up, by one minute... people check their internet connection lol...
