Want to know why the games page isn't showing, some places have 0 visits and Non-limited items have 0 sales? This is because Amazon web services have been acting up recently. 3 days ago, one of Amazons web service servers went down and caused an outrage on loads of popular websites including Tinder, Netflix and Roblox. Basically, websites such as roblox use the Amazon DynamoDB Service to Maintain tables. A single DynamoDB table is separated into partitions, each containing a portion of the table’s data. These partitions are spread onto many servers, both to provide consistent low-latency access and to replicate the data for durability. In other words, to somewhat store data. This has caused a massive stir these past couple of days and Amazon have been hard at work to fix the problem.
Any other information you may want to know about this just ask me :)

In other words, Roblox isn't being DDoS'ed or hacked. It's Amazons fault.

I'm pretty sure this is just like the one guy who spewed a bunch of random technobabble and tricked everyone into thinking he knew what he was saying about the website being broken.

This would not make sense to a majority of people. Definitely far from COMMON sense. But I do believe him.

That works almost exactly like a graphics card does. |
