I have broadband and for the past 6 days it feels like I have dial up.
Anyone else having this problem? I think it has to do with the number of people playing at one time. One Saturday there where 97 people logged on. That's alot.

Yes, we've been experiencing server slowness due to the recent increase in traffic. We've been working on ways to accomodate for the problem. I'm sorry if this is effecting your enjoyment of the game.

I know this is only partially realated, but I've always wondered if saving multiple PM's would eventually begin to drain server space and speed.

Maybe there should be a limit for them?
Like 10-15?

I doubt if the PMs are a major contributer to the degraded performance. The amount of resources taken up by those saved messages is pretty minimal compared to all the other data stored on the servers.
I'm not sure what the root causes of the problem are, but it is definitely exascerbated by high user load.

Yeah, I noticed that instead of 20-25 detectives online, Sleuth now has 45-50 detectives online.

I've noticed it too...i figured it was just my comp acting cranky so I'm pretty glad to see this thread.
Let's call it a boo for slowness and a woot for sleuth's popularity

i had wanted to ask for equipment info on "greendhand", "circle of light" and "eastern traid" on this post. but now i am so piss off about the slow download speed in this game. i would really like to ask: is the game having so much users that it is too much for the server to handle??? i had click to sell a equipment from a favor which cost $4800. the site simply hang there! i had no choice but to close my browser. not sure whether i get the money. i dont really bother about it but the slow speed is really getting on my nerve. this is a text base game so the speed is really unacceptable.
