Land Matters is going through growing pains. The Land Matters website volume has been doubling every two weeks. :thumbsup:

A month ago there were usually 35 - 50 people making maps at any given time day or night. Now there are around 200 - 250 people creating maps at the same time. That's a much bigger load on our servers and resulted in some stress on the mapping system. That's led to some glitches. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. :sad5:

We are actively "tuning" our servers to deliver more maps for more people. The system is running much smoother now but with continued tuning there will be occasional slowdowns, it's unavoidable but we will try to keep any disruptions to a minimum.

We like it that more people are discovering Land Matters every day. We are setting up the Land Matters servers to handle a lot more traffic now so we won't be having problems in the future. Please bear with us over the next week or two as we build a faster more responsive website for you.

You have a huge mobile app. potential in my opinion. Hopefully you are keeping that in mind when you do your upgrades.
 

No problem, Barry. Congratulations on the growth! Looking at my membership card, it looks like I'm about due for another contribution....LOL

That's a good problem to have imo. Thanks for staying on it.
 

Just re-upped my Advantage membership. Hope it helps!
 

Hey Clay! I must be one of those slowing it down. I became an Advantage member today! ╦╦Ç
 

Well it's been a long month of testing and tuning but the Land Matters servers are ready to service a lot more users more quickly now.

There was a little over a week during the past month where the mapping functions were pretty unreliable for some users. Although Land Matters was still serving more than a thousand maps an hour about 14 people a day had their maps become unresponsive during that time. 14 people out of thousands of users might seem like a small percentage but I'm sure it was a frustrating experience for those it happened to. I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you experienced.

Land Matters servers have been running with the new server tunings for a week now with no errors or glitches. Even the most complex maps are being produced in under 4 seconds on average. All is good now.

Thanks for your patience.

I thank you all that maintain the Land Matters website for your time. You provide an invaluable asset to the mining community.
