Any EU players around?

Salamander — Tue, 25 Apr 2017 11:42:01 +0800

Hey everyone!
I wanted to know if any of you guys who are still playing (or planning on playing) are playing on any EU servers, and if so which ones. Currently I am on RoF [Ring Of Fire] and we are paired with Gunnar's Hold and Underworld. It would be nice to find some other fellow M'sians, I feel like maybe I am possibly the only Asian around there lol. I do WvW 99.9% of the time but I don't mind doing pve/pvp [mind you I've done basically none of it, never done a raid even and I'm still deer rank in pvp, but I am wvw rank 2020 gold knight XD. I like testing all kinds of builds on all classes, even the crazy gimmick ones or pure cancer, I don't mind [seeing as I probably need to find their weakness anyhow]. I am not a good dueler and lag is the biggest killer, but I do love playing wvw everyday. Let me know if any of you guys are on EU servers and don't mind me adding you to friends list and maybe play together or even just for chit chat. I don't even mind if you are on US server, as long as I get to know some fellow M'sians. Thanks!

Sidenote: I do have HoT.

IPv6 connectivity problem

Salamander — Tue, 09 Oct 2012 09:18:15 +0800

For the last few days I've been unable to access my tunnelbroker (he.net) and use my ipv6 anymore. Has anyone been having the same problem? Haven't changed anything in my configs, I've updated my ip everytime it has changed, rebooted all the comps and routers, checked my packet filter/tcpdump.. all nada. Is there a block going on? Or just "maintenance"? Can someone please enlighten me?

smtp-proxy.tm.net.my relay

Salamander — Mon, 07 Nov 2011 20:21:35 +0800

Currently I'm using postfix and have it configured to use smtp-proxy.tm.net.my as the relay and it had been working previously over the last few months, however

CODE

Nov 7 13:08:51 salamander postfix/smtp[24126]: 06F2C5C47: to=<xxxxxx@gmail.com>, relay=smtp-proxy.tm.net.my[202.188.0.174]:25, delay=1.3, delays=0.38/0.1/0.51/0.33, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 2.0.0 pA7Brvhx017692 Message accepted for delivery)

It says status=sent and message accepted for delivery? I sent emails to a few places but they haven't even arrived even after 5 hours, is there something going on? Do they get delivered like extremely late or something? Anyone using smtp-proxy.tm.net.my and not having their emails reaching the destination either? Is it because they are having problems now or something? It's a little messed up since I have an important email to send, and I know I shouldn't depend on tmnets smtp but I have to reply from that particular address (I host on dyndns), unless someone knows of a different smtp server I can use that's on port 587 or something (besides gmail)

New ip pool? 110.159.*

Salamander — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 20:32:06 +0800

I got disconnected about 15 minutes ago and had problems getting back on. When I finally got connected I got this ip range that I haven't come across before. Are they expanding on the ip pool or what?

Bandwidth consumption blues

Salamander — Mon, 23 Oct 2006 07:45:23 +0800

Just out of curiousity. If the bandwidth consumption had been due to stuff like audio/video streaming or other high bandwidth traffic and not p2p, and every user started using their bandwidth for it and eventually congested the network (just for arguments sake), would we face the same scenario as we are now with bandwidth throttling? Post your thoughts thanks!
