Before making rude posts, you might want to actually think it through. Colibri -always- announces when he is about to perform a reboot or a change that may cause one to be necessary. The rest of us do not even have access to do such things to the shard. So, nobody was 'making changes to the shard' that caused this crash.

There have been a handful of crashes/freezes like this in recent weeks, Colibri is aware of the issue and doing as much as he can to fix it completely. Anyway, if it doesn't recover in a few minutes, I'll text Colibri.

It is better to lead from behind and to put others in front, especially when you celebrate victory when nice things occur. You take the front line when there is danger. Then people will appreciate your leadership.

For me the server crashing isn't the problem. I spent 30,500 on a two story house, just placed it and got a weird message trying to secure a container that said, I can not secure this and that I had to click the ticket in my pack. Has any other new player experienced this?

The main issue for me is, I'm hoping that container doesn't disappear as I wasn't able to secure it. It contains a house vender deed as well as a conract of emplyment, but most importantly my superbowl candy. ;)

Thank you for time spent trying to get it back up to the Gms. It really isn't anyone's fault.

Ouch man. Good luck. Everything should still be there. More then likely they will resort to a backup if all else fails and you will still have your gold.

Not all players of the game visit the forum frequently, I'm not being rude! The message should appear in game! "The server will shut down in x minutes" but that's okay! Each has a different opnion, but in all the shards I've played these messages appear, you might think a little respect and do the same! For me, no problem, if there is for improvement, improvements are always welcome! Since not simply turn off without warning before! Hopefully entena Nyx! Thank you!
