Things bloat over time – none moreso than the database for this website that contained over 120 rows and was over 114mb in size.
There are now 83 rows, 100mb total, even locally, a significant performance improvement was noticed.
I would love your feedback.
This was step 1, optimize, tidy, tune and backup.

So I’ve stuck to the original naming convention used over the years, with small modifiers used, for example; 2013 or so:… Read more →

This was a challenging series to author for BMSworld, but I got there in the end. Note that 4★ is still being fixed. One song in a list of 50 is causing all but 4 tracks to be displayed in ANY BMS Player – quite annoying really. Read more →

BMSworld is like a vinyl record store. There are hidden gem’s throughout the store but you must dedicate some time to finding them and each vinyl you find, you take to the stores’ record player, pop on some headphones and lose yourself in the tune. Navigating BMSworld was always intended to be just like that. If you love the gameplay… Read more →
Hi Team, There is a known issue with BMSworld and the downloads system implemented. To explain in brief; Downloads used to be hosted on the MEGA.NZ platform – this proved too costly. Downloads are slowly being moved to the webserver so that they are hosted over HTTP/HTTPS which for some people provides benefits such as 1.) Downloads over HTTP/HTTPS… Read more →

It’s only been about 5 Months since I moved the entire website from a shared VPS provider to my home crafted VPS 
, went through a number of heartbreaking discoveries & tragedies including losing the entire 3,400 user accounts SQL tables in the migration (KEK)
Edit: there was also the domain migration, network and firewall configuration, a few days at work with just 3 hours sleep the night before
And lastly,
!!! AN ANNOUNCEMENT !!!
I am currently developing, with lots of help, a very nifty custom plugin!
It will be responsible for taking my posts from here, marked as announcements, and posting them to my new blog page which I am starting to implement on BMSworld
Omg, I’m actually blogging….
Take THAT past self!
