Woohoo! Glad to see Original Arcade is back along with'em.

Indeed, the server browser has been in a bleak state. No good servers left. Into it life is breathed.

Heh, I don't even know what effects the page break. Is it number of posts or length of page?

Number of posts. I think it is set by default on your profile at 10 posts per page. I think you can change it.

15 posts to the page, not normally changeable as far as I know.

One thing I notice is that Phytotron is a 'bursty' kind of poster. One moment he's dormant, and the next moment he can dominate a thread. That won't make a break more likely per post, but it does mean he'll see a break every few times he participates. He might also be more inclined to post on a full page. Also some confirmation bias, I guess. :)

Yes, I'm sure. It's just idly amusing.

Should be called Adventures of Inmates. btw this is my normal rim_wall texture. I could not get it to a solid color, so I made due with this.

What?! Inmates? Why can't you get your rim_wall a solid color? You need help?

It looks like a penitentiary. All the inmates are given numbers, to feel like they have no significance. :P No, I have got used to it, only reason to change to a solid color would be to increase my fps by 5 or so. In fact, that would be great if it did. btw its filter --> render clouds

:roll: Yeah, I know. That filter is probably older than you. It made it's first appearance in Adobe Photoshop 3.0, back in 1994.

Er, that shows 106 FPS. That's at minimum 31 frames to spare. And you could probably free up more, depending on what all you've got going on.

What server is that, anyway?

Oh, ok. I've only gone in there once or twice by myself. Didn't quite get it.

109 with me alone in the server. During ladles I get ~30-40 fps. This is with screen res half of my screen size. Most of my settings are to increase fps, like a blank tail instead of a graphic. For fun I changed the color of the top of the cycle to green. That won't affect fps, however.

All AoT servers are temporarily down. Should be back on-line in a few days (I think).

Thank you,
Management.
