Re: OFFICIAL DOWNTIME THREAD
I am assuming that this LONG downtime has something to do with some type of repair that needs to be done. To have known about it before hand would have been great though. I loaded down my mule with my pack, getting ready to fletch to GM, and I got booted while not riding her :P When something like this happens, is there a revert or something?? It's been 45 minutes so far. Is this a frequent occurance??
Re: OFFICIAL DOWNTIME THREAD
No this is Rare.. Was there any notice before it went done?

Re: OFFICIAL DOWNTIME THREAD
Interesting.. Anybody else notice that in the Forum the posts are listed by time? Problem is, it's listed by our own local times.
Re: OFFICIAL DOWNTIME THREAD
Not a server crash, but a network malfunction.
Same problem has happened several times now, was usually resolved very quickly. This time I was able to find more about the error and so i have more insight into how to attempt a repair. Seems that the server looses connection internally (bad network card or cable).
Was at work during the time, quickly came home as I saw it was offline (good think it's just 2 miles away).
Again, a reminder. Make sure that your valuable items are insured, and your pets are bonded, as there is no telling when power or internet can go down (either at your place, or on the server).

Re: OFFICIAL DOWNTIME THREAD
A few months I will be playing on UOEX for a year and to be honest I have never suffered any downtime at all. I work alot and play late and have 4 chars with serious hours on them. I might get some lag here and there but still super impressed at the performance and dedication to this shard. I can remember back in the day every shard when origin owned them and then EA having 4 hour downtimes daily and then sometimes days when a simple patch went through or an expansion where you couldnt log on for almost a week. You guys rock
