Ok so you have to run the updater even after installing sourcebans from scratch. I somehow missed this:

Re: Error connecting to database: [1040]: Too many connections
The limit TimeX is thinking of is actually enforced outside of MySQL and would not give this error. As far as I know, the "Too many connections" error only occurs when MySQL itself hits max_connections. If you're still seeing it, please have your support request escalated to me, and I can...

Re: Error connecting to database: [1040]: Too many connections
Thanks, that helps From the ToS: Clients may not: Have open more than 20 remote (non-local) connections to the MySQL server per remote IP address. Is it possible that limit got changed today to 7 or 8? I haven't seen those errors before today and the screenshot indicates 7 connections per game serve...

Uh...

Re: How do you manage your game servers on a VPS?
What games do your servers run? and do they offer in-game server-side modding or scripting support? Generally I find it easiest to script server-side mods to automate things like restarting servers every so often. This is an example specific to source based games (in this case, L4D2), but you can se...

Re: Website Database Size Cap
hmm well it looks like the heatmap plugin is still logging the info correctly, it's just there's a lot of extra blank pages for whatever reason that extend beyond the last recorded official heatmap log. I came back to check and sure enough there where recorded heatmap logs from the latest round id a...

Re: Advanced ddos protection
It's been a few months, and I just wanted to add that we did need some extra protection on top of NFO's default filtering system, in order to make sure there were no short server lags before the DDoS filter kicked in: https://youtu.be/cr5oCivfmiE?t=1h14m5s We ended up using sir's ip tables, in conju...
