...um...okay so it looks like theO is having MORE issues...I dunno...has anyone else noticed a great deal of lag in the submission of new images??
it used to be I'd submit a new image, and within a few minutes it would show up on the front page of my portfolio, and I could also then go and see it in the new submissions for fanart if I was quick enough on the main fanart page.
that doesn't happen anymore...it now often takes a few hours or so for a new submission to show up on my main portfolio page (but often will show up if one views my fanart section separately, thus preventing any portfolio-skimming visitors from seeing any new images for that same amount of time.)
and the same happens with the fanart sections main page, it will not show up in the "freshest" section of the main page, even when there have not been enough newer submissions to bump it off the main page yet, but once again, it does show up a lot of times if one clicks and specifically views the entire freshest submission category...
have they become really understaffed here or something? did a bunch of the people in charge of approving and moving along submissions get canned or quit all of a sudden? or has there been a crap load of technical/performance issues spring up in the past few months?
because to be honest, the volume of submissions coming in really does not seem to have changed much as all, it's comparatively low-volume as ever, it just seems that the approval/updating process has suddenly slowed up really bad lately...the only thing that I can fathom as to why that's happened after so much time of running rather nicely is that they've lost manpower to review and approve incoming submissions, or that their virtual/mechanical power is having difficulty, bugs, etc.
so yeah I'm just wondering if anyone else is noticing any changes similar to these in the past couple months or so...I don't remember it being like this before, so it's weird... >___>...
