Why does this happen?

[Blacksite]

Can I ask why the site goes down for 15 to 20 minutes after 11:00 PM every day? It's been happening for the past couple weeks now. I don't know if it's scheduled maintenance or whatever but it's pretty annoying nonetheless. I know it's not a problem with my internet because every other site loads up just fine.

What time zone? I haven't experienced any problems except a few days ago with the million people online.

UTC-6:00 Central Time.

Abdou23 experienced the same problem, I believe.

I noticed i couldn't load a page around midnight... est.

Well, it's still happening. I just want some feedback from the staff.

Its a few things, one it could be peak time and the site is getting to many members or guests at once and can not handle more

Two... Its just the way the site acts at certain points in the day or night

Three... The site is still going through certain changes that make it go down at certain points of the day

Actually, this happens around the time the least amount of members and guests are online, which would explain why so few people notice it.

Well, I would like to know the reason why.

I don't know. You'd think the staff would say something if it was normal.

The little feedback tab on the right would be a great way for this to have been reported.

At any rate, I did go ahead and submit the feedback to see what they say, but I am pretty sure it is just database maintenance.

PSU servers are on eastern time in the US. So 11pm, when you notice it in WI is midnight for them. At that time, pretty sure PSU does a backup to the database.

I will get it clarified, but almost 100% sure you just have to live with it as I don't think it is any sort of "problem."

That makes sense, I guess. Thanks for the feedback.

That would make the most sense.
