OFFICIAL DOWNTIME THREAD

Anything you find suspicious, things that crash your client, things that crash the server, anything that doesnt work as it should.

I wasn't intentionally trying to flame anyone!! Maybe myself a bit with the blonde moment comment (which btw was 100% true) but I certainly wasn't trying to run anyone off!!

I ran a UO server for 2 years and I know how hard it can be on staff at times when there are server issues!! That's what I was trying to convey in my message.

I guess some may not get my sense of humor, so I'm sorry, Kitara, if I offended you. That wasn't my intention!!

Shard connection appears to be dead, I don't believe the shard crashed. This won't be fun.

LOL ok i know you're all freaked right now, but this amazing!

The whole ISP simply vanished. At exactly 0:00. Can't call them by phone, can't open their website from another ISP... etc. Since it occured at such a nice number i'm guessing it's some maintenance thing, but Come On!

Seems like i really will need to make that redundant connecion happen. Ugh...

EPIC FAIL

Yep well long ago i put in a piece of code which shrinks all pets if everybody gets disconnected so all your pets are safe. Hopefully nobody was just trying to rescue his/her corpse, in which case i hope you had your stuff insured.

I will keep you all posted but i have a bad feeling that this won't be accessible anytime soon. :/
Basically, when it comes back online, you all should be able to connect again. So i suppose try every 30-90 minutes.

Just found a post related to the outage on the most popular Slovenian tech forum, nobody has a clue why it all went out. Lol even some of the unofficial support forums are on servers that use that ISP, so it's just pure Pnwage :p

For the time of the outage, i suggest reading books, watching TV, or well simply spending some quality time with people in the real world (hmm will there be a baby boom 9 months from now)?

No problem, stuff happens. You host it all yourself, we can be patient. Thanks for the word.
